How Platinum-Coated and Mixed Metal Oxide Anodes Differ in Performance and Cost
Choosing the right anode material is crucial in the electrochemical systems that require efficiency, reliability, and longevity. Platinum-based coatings are often compared with mixed metal oxide (MMO) technology, but their cost and performance differ. Electrochemical Efficiency and Conductivity A platinizedel ectrode is a great choice for speeding up reactions and good electric conductors. Being a metal, platinum helps reduce energy loss during any electrochemical reactions. As a result, this alternative becomes appropriate in precision applications where constant output and over potential values are required. Resistance and Operation Environment However, in contrast, a coated titanium anode using mixed metal oxide layers is created to be used in severe conditions over a long period. Titanium does not corrode easily, and MMOs remain stable with high electric currents. Also, MMOs perform predictably as the work cycle changes. Cost vs. Longevity Platinum...
