Description
🔬 Overview: What is a Titanium Anode Tube?
A Titanium Anode Tube is a tubular electrode using a commercially pure titanium substrate, typically GR1 or GR2, with a selected MMO (Mixed Metal Oxides) or platinum (Pt) coating. These are alternative coating options selected for the electrolyte and target reaction. For a quotation, specify OD, length, wall thickness, active area, coating/loading, current duty, electrolyte, temperature and connection details.
Select titanium anode tubes using coating, current-duty and inspection requirements defined for the intended electrochemical system.

⚡ Applications to Assess for Titanium Anode Tubes
- ⚖️ Electrolysis Systems: Select the coating for the target anodic reaction, electrolyte and operating duty in water splitting, chlorine generation or alkaline electrolysis.
- 🌊 Wastewater Treatment: Define water chemistry, treatment objective and current duty before evaluating an oxidation or related treatment process.
- 🏮 Electroplating: Select the coating and geometry for the bath chemistry, contamination limits, current distribution and required inspection.
- 🛠️ Descaling / Electrocleaning: Confirm the actual acid chemistry, concentration, temperature, polarity and coating compatibility.
- 🏪 Cathodic Protection Systems: For impressed current service, specify environment/backfill, current duty, active area and connection/seal requirements.
🧰 Coating Types: MMO vs. Platinum
1. MMO Coated Titanium Anode Tube
- Candidate oxide formulations include RuO2, IrO2 and Ta2O5; confirm the ordered composition and loading
- Current efficiency assessed for the coating and actual cell conditions
- Coating selected for the target chlorine or oxygen evolution reaction (CER/OER)
- Formulation selected for the actual wastewater chemistry or chlorine-evolving process
2. Platinized Titanium Anode Tube
- Platinum coating option: confirm deposition route, thickness/loading and inspection basis
- Electrode potential assessed for the specified electrolyte and current duty
- Select for the actual acidic environment using concentration, temperature, potential and current-duty requirements
- Consider for specified electroplating or semiconductor process requirements after confirming bath chemistry and contamination criteria

🎓 Why Choose GR1 / GR2 Titanium?
- GR1 Titanium is a commercially pure grade often selected for ductility and forming requirements
- GR2 Titanium offers greater strength; confirm the ordered specification and suitability for the drawing
- For both grades, evaluate substrate and coating compatibility against the actual solution, concentration, temperature and current duty
For chlorine, acid, or seawater conditions, choose substrate and coating using the actual chemistry, concentration, temperature and anodic duty. The catalogue tables above provide quotation references: current density, voltage/temperature, life and adhesion values need the selected coating, test method and acceptance basis confirmed for the order.

❓ FAQ About Titanium Anode Tubes
Q1: MMO vs Pt coated – which is better?
Select MMO or Pt using electrolyte composition/concentration, pH, temperature, target reaction, current duty, contamination limits and the required coating loading. Confirm suitability and inspection criteria for the specific process rather than selecting solely by industry name.
Q2: Can I request different sizes?
Absolutely. We support full customization including OD, length, wall thickness, and flange design.
Q3: What’s the typical lead time?
Standard sizes: 5–7 days. Custom parts: 10–20 days depending on complexity.
Q4: Do you provide replacement coating services?
Discuss recoating of used titanium anodes after substrate, wall/dimensions, connection and previous-service inspection. Confirm refurbishment scope and acceptance criteria.
