titanium anode for nickel plating

The titanium anode used for nickel plating is an insoluble electrode made of high-purity titanium substrate, coated with catalytic layers such as iridium oxide (IrO), ruthenium oxide (RuO ₂), or platinum (Pt) on the surface. Realize efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) while maintaining dimensional stability.
Manufacturing process of nickel titanium anode
The performance of nickel plating on titanium anode largely depends on the precious metal coating technology. The production process ensures durability, catalytic activity, and stable electrochemical performance.
1: Preparation of titanium substrate
Use grade 1 or grade 2 titanium
Surface sandblasting to increase roughness and adhesion
Acid washing to remove oxide layer and impurities
2: Coating application technology
Thermal decomposition method of MMO coating
Multi layer coating enhances catalytic performance
Accurate control of coating thickness (usually 5-15 μ m)
3: Sintering and activation
High temperature sintering (400-500 ° C)
Formation of Stable Oxide Crystal Structure
Activation of Electrochemical Catalytic Performance
4: Quality inspection
Coating adhesion test
Accelerated Life Test
Electrochemical performance evaluation
Through these controlled processes, titanium anodes used for nickel plating have achieved excellent conductivity, durability, and efficiency.

Technical advantages of nickel plating on titanium anode
1: Dimensional stability
Unlike soluble nickel anodes, titanium anodes used for nickel plating do not dissolve during operation. Ensuring consistency in geometric shape and predictable current distribution.
2: Energy efficiency
Low oxygen release of overpotential reduces battery voltage, making nickel titanium plated anodes more energy-efficient in large-scale operations.
3: Environmental benefits
No production of heavy metal sludge
Reduce bath pollution
Reduce waste disposal costs
