titanium anode
Titanium Anode
Titanium anode (also known as titanium-based metal oxide coated anode, DSA, Dimensionally Stable Anode) is a high-performance electrode material widely used in the field of electrochemistry. It has excellent corrosion resistance, high catalytic activity and long life.
Common coatings:
Ruthenium (RuO₂): suitable for chlor-alkali industry, resistant to Cl⁻ corrosion.
Iridium (IrO₂): strong acid resistance, suitable for wastewater treatment.
Platinum coating: used for high-purity titanium electrolysis, resistant to high temperature (600℃).
Structural form: plate, tube, mesh, wire, etc., can be customized according to needs.
Regular cleaning: rinse with deionized water after shutdown to avoid scale deposition.
Avoid mechanical damage: damage to the platinum layer will cause rapid corrosion of the titanium substrate.
Electrolytic activation: reverse current treatment every 3000 hours to strip off the passivation layer.
Composite coatings: such as platinum-iridium gradient coatings, further reducing the oxygen evolution overpotential (the laboratory has reached 1.25V).
Intelligent monitoring: integrated sensors monitor coating loss in real time.
Environmental protection and new energy applications: such as solid-state batteries and efficient hydrogen production.

Core characteristics of titanium anode
Dimensional stability
The electrode spacing remains unchanged during the electrolysis process, ensuring stable cell voltage.
Strong corrosion resistance
Suitable for strong acid, strong alkali and Cl⁻-containing media, with corrosion resistance far exceeding that of graphite and lead anodes.
Low operating voltage
Low overpotential for oxygen/chlorine evolution, saving 10%-20% energy.
Long life
In the chlor-alkali industry, the life span can reach 6 years, while that of graphite anode is only 8 months.
High current density
Supports 17A/dm² (graphite anode is only 8A/dm²), improving production efficiency.
Main application areas
- Electrolysis of brine to produce chlorine and caustic soda, titanium anode can reduce cell voltage and improve chlorine purity.
- Replace graphite anode to avoid electrolyte contamination.
- Electrocatalytic oxidation: Degrade organic matter in printing and dyeing, pharmaceutical, and coking wastewater, with a COD removal rate of up to 90%.
- Sodium hypochlorite generator: Electrolyze brine to generate disinfectant, used for hospital sewage and swimming pool water treatment.
- Radioactive wastewater treatment: Electrolytic recovery of radioactive metals such as uranium and plutonium.
- Used for nickel plating, chromium plating, gold plating, etc. to improve the uniformity of the plating layer and reduce plating solution pollution.
- The oxygen evolution overpotential is 0.5V lower than that of the lead anode, which saves energy significantly.
- Extract metals such as copper, zinc, and nickel, replace the lead anode, and avoid cathode contamination.
- Suitable for high current density (such as 8000A/m²) and narrow inter-electrode spacing (5mm) conditions.
- Hydrogen production by electrolysis of water: Reduce the oxygen evolution overpotential and improve energy efficiency.
- Solid-state battery: used for titanium-based plate manufacturing.
- Cathodic protection: anti-corrosion of marine steel structures, with a service life of more than 10 years.
- Electrochemical synthesis: such as preparation of organic compounds and pharmaceutical intermediates.
