Why Titanium Electrodes for Electrolysis?
Titanium electrodes are highly valued in electrochemical applications due to the metal’s:
Outstanding corrosion resistance
Excellent conductivity when properly coated
Chemical inertness in harsh electrolytic environments
Mechanical strength and durability
To enhance performance, titanium substrates are often coated with Mixed Metal Oxides (MMO) like RuO₂, IrO₂, or Pt group metals. These coatings improve current efficiency, service life, and catalytic activity—making them ideal for long-term, high-load electrolysis processes.
