Ruthenium Iridium Coated Titanium Anode - Ru-Ir/Ti MMO Electrode - High Efficiency Chlorine Evolution Electrode for Swimming Pool Salt Chlorinator, Wastewater Treatment, Lab Research
"This Ruthenium-Iridium Coated Titanium Anode (Ru-Ir/Ti MMO Electrode) is a high-performance, dimensionally stable anode designed for applications requiring efficient chlorine evolution. The 100x100x1mm size is ideal for laboratory research, bench-scale testing, and as a replacement component for small to medium-sized electrolytic systems.Why Choose This Electrode?1. High Efficiency Chlorine EvolutionThe mixed metal oxide (MMO) coating combines ruthenium and iridium—two of the most effective catalysts for the chlorine evolution reaction (CER). This results in:Low overpotential: Less energy required to drive the reactionHigh current efficiency: More of your electricity goes toward useful workCost savings: Lower operating costs over the life of the electrode2. Stop Contaminating Your Electrolyte & Cathode ProductsTraditional anodes made of graphite or lead slowly dissolve during operation. This creates two serious problems:Contaminated electrolyte: Dissolved impurities ruin expensive electrolyte baths, forcing frequent replacementCompromised cathode products: Those same contaminants deposit onto your cathode, degrading product quality and causing rejected batchesOur insoluble Ru-Ir/Ti anode eliminates these risks entirely. The precious metal oxide coating does not dissolve during electrolysis, ensuring:Your electrolyte stays pure, batch after batchOnly the intended metal deposits on your cathodeNo unexpected impurities, no rejected batches3. Can Also Function in Oxygen EvolutionWhile this electrode is optimized for chloride-containing environments (seawater, brine), it can also operate in oxygen-evolving systems such as sulfate solutions.Important: Long-term operation in pure oxygen evolution environments will reduce the electrode's lifespan. For applications requiring extended oxygen evolution, we recommend our Iridium-Tantalum (Ir-Ta) coated anodes.Why Buy From Us?Quality Assurance: Each electrode is tested for coating integrity and performance before shipmentTechnical Support: Our team understands electrochemistry—we're here to help with application questionsQuestions?
