Platinum
is a precious metal having very good physical and chemical
properties such as
: : high corrosion resistance
: : thermal conductivity
: : catalytic nature
As it is very expensive, platinum cannot be used in
its solid form as an anode. So that Platinised Metal
Anodes ( Pt Anode ) are produced by electroplating platinum
( Pt ) on a specially treated precious metal ( Titanium
/ Niobium / Tantalum / Zirconium ) substrate by means
of electrodeposition process.
Thus electroplated metal anodes are
economical as well as it retains the superior physical
and chemical properties of platinum.
According to the substrate material
used, the platinized anodes are called as
: : electroplated titanium anode (
EPMA -Ti )
: : electroplated niobium anode ( EPMA -Nb )
: : electroplated zirconium anodes ( EPMA -Zr )
: : electroplated tantalum anodes ( EPMA -Ta )
TiTaN's electroplated metal anodes are most suitable
to various critital special applications. |
