Platinum is the most effective metal for any electro chemical process due to its current conducting property. Platinum being the most expensive material rational utilization of Platinum for the greater benefit ensures economical solution. Platinized Anodes is none but a rational utilization of platinum by coating or plating limited quantity on to titanium to achieve the same result as using platinum metal. Tiaano offer Anodes Electrodes in Rods, Wire, Sheet, expanded Mesh, tube forms from stock.

Simple concept of the Electro Plating: - Direct current is supplied to the anode, oxidizing its metal atoms and dissolving them in the electrolyte solution. The dissolved metal ions are reduced at the cathode, plating the metal onto the item. The current through the circuit is such that the rate at which the anode is dissolved is equal to the rate at which the cathode is plated.

PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODE FOR HARD CHROME PLATING - TIAANO MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODES AND PLATINIZED NIOBIUM ANODES

September 25, 2020 at 4:43 PMPlatinised

Platinised Titanium Anodes are exclusively used in the Hard Chrome Plating application. Platinised Titanium anodes offer numerous benefits. There are Long life, dimensionally stable and easily fabricated into any shape, Homogeneous and long-lasting active surface, Energy savings with shaped anodes and small anode/cathode distances, Reduced environmental burden and reduced maintenance, Mesh anodes provide excellent throwing and can be used at high current densities, Easier handling and replating, Considerations when converting from Lead to Platinised Titanium anodes:

The service life of platinised titanium depends on both the electrolyte matrix and the applied current density. Therefore, in fluoride containing baths and at current densities >75 A/dm2 platinized niobium is recommended in preference to platinised titanium.

Platinized titanium and niobium anodes are completely or partially covered with a fee microns of platinum (usually 2.5 micron). Where the platinum is consumed after years of use, the underlying titanium or niobium passivates and the bath voltage rises at constant current operation. The base metals are not attacked at the usual operational voltages, in fluoride free chromium baths.

 

For most applications the platinum wear rate is very low and the corresponding anode life time high. In sulphuric acid chromium baths the platinum consumption is between 1g and 4g platinum per million amp hours. Careful design of the platinised anodes will increase their benefit and maximise their life span.

TIAANO MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODE (Pt Ti Anode) PLATINIZED NIOBIUM ANODES (Pt Nb Anode)

September 21, 2020 at 11:08 AMPlatinised

Tiaano Customized Platinum plated Anodes or Electrodes are manufactured using the metal of titanium, niobium, tantalum in the production and Pure Platinum Coating. The electrocatalytic functional layers of platinum are used throughout virtually the entire electrochemical industry.

Platinised titanium anodes can only be used successfully in electrolytes which do not attack the titanium base. This excludes use at very low and very high pH values and also Chromium baths containing fluorides.

The service time of the platinised titanium anodes depends on the chemical resistivity of the base metal, the dissolution rate of the deposited platinum in the electrolyte, which in turn depends upon layer morphology, and adhesive qualities, pH, current density and current ripple.

For most applications the dissolution rate is low and the advantages of platinised titanium anodes are far greater than any metal loss. For fluoride-free chromium baths, the platinum consumption will be approximately 1 to 4 g of platinum per million Ah.

What is Electro Plating? Why platinum Anodes in Electro Plating?

Electroplating involves passing an electric current through a solution called an electrolyte. This is done by dipping two terminals called electrodes into the electrolyte and connecting them into a circuit with a battery or other power supply. The electrodes and electrolyte are made from carefully chosen elements or compounds. When the electricity flows through the circuit they make, the electrolyte splits up and some of the metal atoms it contains are deposited in a thin layer on top of one of the electrodes—it becomes electroplated.

PLATINIZED METAL SHEET ANODE FOR IONIZATION

June 14, 2020 at 10:31 PMPlatinised

Tiaano manufacturing different dimensions and Shapes of platinum or platinised electrode for water ionizers. The essential components of the ionization chamber are its two collecting electrodes, (the anode and cathode) the anode is positively charged with respect to the cathode. Water Ionizer Electrodes [Anodes or Cathodes] are available with hanging hook, frame or band in the form of sheet, expanded mesh, pipe, wire, rod and custom built. 

The best water to drink is alkalized or ionized water, which is produced by running normal tap water over a positive (platinized anode) and a negative (platinised cathode) electrode. This creates positive and negative ions in the water that are then separated creating two different waters, one that is alkaline and one that is acidic.

Alkaline water is for flushing out internal toxins, scavenging free radicals, and oxygenating the body. Acid water, which is really a by-product of ionizing water, can be used externally for cleansing the skin, cleaning any surface and feeding your plants.

Most good ionizers on the market use electrodes made of platinum plated titanium. Titanium will not dissolve in your ionized water as the cheaper metals like stainless steel does. The ionizer uses grade 1 titanium (as per ASTM Standard) electrodes to be plated with a good electrical conductor. Stainless steel was used for Water Ionizer electrodes in the late 1980's and was found not be a suitable material because they did not last more than a  few years.

How Electroplating Works (Electrodes - Platinised Cylindrical Anode or Platinised Cylindrical Cathode

Electroplating is the application of electrolytic cells in which a thin layer of metal is deposited onto an electrically conductive surface. A cell consists of two electrodes (conductors), usually made of Titanium with Platinum plating, which are held apart from one another. The electrodes are immersed in an electrolyte (a solution).

When an electric current is turned on, positive ions in the electrolyte move to the negatively charged electrode, called the cathode. Positive ions are atoms with one electron too few. When they reach the cathode, they combine with electrons and lose their positive charge.

At the same time, negatively charged ions move to the positive electrode, called the anode. Negatively charged ions are atoms with one electron too many. When they reach the positive anode, they transfer their electrons to it and lose their negative charge.

Significant factors in Electro Plating Process / Baths

          The voltage level of current.

          The temperature and chemical composition of the bath.

          The current length of time.

          The distance between the cathode and the anode.

PLATINIZED METAL ANODE FOR ELECTRO PLATING

May 3, 2020 at 10:41 PMPlatinised

Platinised Titanium Anodes are exclusively used in the Electro Plating Process. Tiaano Electrodes has the technology to platinum titanium substrates in the form of plate, wire, rod, tube, plate and mesh. Furthermore, we have the ability to manufacture complex fabricated anodes. The external surface of all platinised titanium anodes is essentially pure platinum which exhibits all the normal characteristics of the wrought metal as far as corrosion behaviour is concerned. The secret of the quality of a platinised anode lies in the nature of the interface between the platinum and the titanium. It is well known that normal untreated titanium presents a very inert and intractable surface when it comes to applying precious metal coatings. That this problem was overcome to an adequate extent is demonstrated by the wide acceptance of platinised titanium anodes in different industries throughout the world. Although there are still many platinum electroplated anodes produced without an adequate interlayer, they are used for less demanding applications.

What is Electroplating?

Electroplating involves passing an electric current through a solution called an electrolyte. This is done by dipping two terminals called electrodes into the electrolyte and connecting them into a circuit with a battery or other power supply. The electrodes and electrolyte are made from carefully chosen elements or compounds. When the electricity flows through the circuit they make, the electrolyte splits up and some of the metal atoms it contains are deposited in a thin layer on top of one of the electrodes—it becomes electroplated. All kinds of metals can be plated in this way, including gold, silver, tin, zinc, copper, cadmium, chromium, nickel, platinum, and lead.

Electroplating is very similar to electrolysis (using electricity to split up a chemical solution), which is the reverse of the process by which power supply produce electric currents. All these things are examples of electrochemistry: chemical reactions caused by or producing electricity that give scientifically or industrially useful end-products.
