ARY Titanium manufactures MMO-coated anodes in plate, mesh, rod, tube and custom forms. Coating and dimensions are specified for your electrolyte and cell.
Share your operating data and drawing to discuss coating, connections and sample requirements.
Start with the reaction you need at the anode. Electrolyte composition and electrical load then narrow the coating options.
Process conditions to share
Chloride Electrolysis
For chloride electrolysis targeting chlorine or hypochlorite. Share the brine composition and duty.
Electroplating & Electrowinning
For metal plating and recovery processes where oxygen is the intended anodic product. Share the bath chemistry and operating conditions.
Anodic reactions can overlap. Chlorine and oxygen evolution can compete in chloride-containing electrolytes. Include the intended product, electrolyte and duty in your specification.

Planning checks for a repeat order?
Set the Inspection PlanBased in Foshan, ARY Titanium supports custom electrodes, sample development and repeat production. These stages connect substrate preparation, coating and assembly with inspection and shipment. The sequence and process requirements depend on the design.
The titanium substrate is cut and formed to the specified dimensions, mounting features and clearances.
The substrate surface is prepared before coating. The preparation method depends on the material and coating route.
The selected coating is applied to the defined active area. Connection zones can remain uncoated as shown on the drawing.
Thermal decomposition and oxidation convert the applied coating compounds into the active oxide layer.
Frames, tabs and conductors follow the assembly drawing. The welding and coating sequence depends on the design.
Dimensions, coated areas and connection details are checked against the inspection criteria agreed for the order.
Packing is specified to separate coated faces and support the anode during handling and transport.
Shipping instructions cover the destination, labels, required documents and delivery terms.

MMO Titanium AnodeSelect a question to read the answer.
It consists of a titanium substrate with an active mixed metal oxide coating. Shape, coated area, connection and coating direction depend on the electrolyte, target anodic reaction and equipment.
Ruthenium-iridium oxide coatings are commonly considered for chlorine evolution in chloride media; iridium-tantalum oxides are commonly considered for oxygen evolution. These are starting points. Electrolyte chemistry, current density, temperature and duty determine which formulation needs testing in your cell.
Service life varies with current density, electrolyte composition and impurities, temperature, flow, cleaning and duty cycle. Use operating records and a test under intended conditions to set a project-specific service target.
Recoating may be possible if the titanium substrate and connections remain suitable. Share photos, dimensions, operating history and contamination details for a feasibility assessment before assuming the anode can be reused.
Include reversal frequency, current, timing and duty in the specification. These conditions affect the reaction and electrode arrangement, so suitability must be evaluated for the intended cycle and cell.
Quote scope depends on the drawing, titanium form, coating direction, dimensions, connections, inspection requirements, packing, destination and requested quantity. Include sample, pilot or production quantities where available.
Provide the application, target reaction, electrolyte and pH, current or current density, temperature, duty, dimensions, active area, titanium form, connection and quantity. A drawing or current-anode photos help define fit.
