Mixed metal oxide anodes
made of titanium
Anodes with mixed metal oxide coating typically consist of titanium as the base metal, on which noble metal oxides of the platinum group are applied along with other valve metals. Usually, iridium mixed metal oxide coatings are used for chloride-free electrolytes, while ruthenium or iridium/ruthenium mixed metal oxide coatings are used for the production of chlorine and hypochlorite.
For particularly demanding conditions with high current density or polarity reversal, additional metallic or ceramic intermediate layers can be applied.
Mixed metal oxide anodes are characterized by the following properties:
