Ruthenium Coated Titanium Anode

Product Features

1. High Electrocatalytic ActivityThe unique chemical properties of ruthenium endow the anode with outstanding electrocatalytic performance, significantly reducing the overpotential of reactions such as chlorine evolution and oxygen evolution. In the electrolysis process, it facilitates reactions, greatly improving electrochemical conversion efficiency and boosting high-efficiency operations in various industrial productions.

2. Superior Corrosion ResistanceWhen facing complex and corrosive electrolyte environments, such as strong acids, alkalis, or high-concentration salt solutions, the ruthenium coating and titanium substrate work in synergy to form a robust protective barrier. In 98℃ concentrated sulfuric acid solution, its corrosion rate is only 1/50 of that of ordinary titanium anodes, effectively resisting the erosion of corrosive ions like chloride ions. This ensures the anode operates stably for a long time in harsh conditions and significantly extends its service life.

3. Excellent Dimensional StabilityDuring long-term electrolysis, the anode maintains stable dimensions, and the electrode spacing does not change. This feature is crucial for maintaining the stability and consistency of electrolysis operations, effectively reducing energy consumption fluctuations caused by electrode dimension changes and ensuring efficient and stable production processes.

4. Good Electrical ConductivityBy doping nanocarbon materials (such as graphene), the coating resistivity is reduced from 15Ω·cm in traditional processes to 5Ω·cm. The unique microstructure forms an efficient electron transport channel, ensuring uniform and rapid current passage through the anode, reducing resistance loss, and improving power utilization efficiency.

Product Advantages

1. Energy Saving and Consumption ReductionCompared with traditional anode materials, BYC Ti's ruthenium-coated titanium anode can operate at a lower cell voltage due to its low overpotential and good electrical conductivity, significantly reducing energy consumption in the electrolysis process. In large-scale electrolysis applications such as the chlor-alkali industry, it helps enterprises effectively cut power costs and enhance economic benefits.

2. Long Service LifeThe excellent corrosion resistance and stable structural design significantly extend the anode's service life, which can reach more than 8 years in the chlor-alkali industry. The long life not only reduces downtime and labor costs caused by frequent electrode replacement but also decreases waste generation, aligning with the concept of sustainable development.

3. Environmental Protection and No PollutionDuring electrolysis, the anode does not release harmful metal ions into the electrolyte, avoiding pollution to the environment and products. It is particularly suitable for industries with high requirements for product purity and the environment, such as electrochemical applications in food processing and pharmaceuticals.

4. Customized ServicesWe understand that different customers have diverse application scenarios and requirements, so we provide comprehensive customized services. We can customize the anode's size, shape (such as plate, mesh, tubular, etc.), and coating thickness and composition according to customers' actual working conditions, ensuring the product perfectly adapts to various complex working conditions.
