Ruthenium-iridium Coated Titanium Mesh Cylinder Anode for Chlorine Production, 500A/m² Current Density, 1.5μm Coating, -10°C to 50°C
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer with over 25 years of experience in producing industrial wire mesh and electrode products, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established in 1998) is proud to introduce our Ruthenium-iridium coated titanium mesh cylinder anode specifically designed for efficient chlorine production. This anode combines advanced coating technology with a robust titanium substrate, ensuring high electrochemical activity, long service life, and stable performance under demanding operating conditions. With an annual export value of US$5–10 million and a global reach spanning North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond, we deliver reliable solutions trusted by industries worldwide.
Our anode is engineered to operate at a current density of 500 A/m² with a precisely controlled coating thickness of 1.5 μm, making it ideal for chlorine evolution reactions in electrolytic cells. The ruthenium-iridium mixed metal oxide coating provides excellent catalytic activity, corrosion resistance, and low overpotential, which translates to energy savings and reduced maintenance costs for your chlor-alkali process. Whether you require a standard size or a custom dimension, our factory can tailor the anode to meet your specific cell geometry.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- High Catalytic Efficiency: The ruthenium-iridium coating ensures low overpotential for chlorine evolution, improving energy efficiency by up to 10–15% compared to conventional anodes.
- Excellent Durability: Titanium substrate provides superior mechanical strength and corrosion resistance in harsh acidic environments (pH 0–2, Cl⁻ concentration up to 300 g/L).
- Uniform Coating: Advanced thermal decomposition process guarantees a consistent 1.5 μm coating thickness, ensuring uniform current distribution and stable performance.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: Designed to function reliably from -10°C to 50°C, accommodating various seasonal and process variations.
- Customizable Mesh Structure: Cylindrical mesh design allows optimal electrolyte flow and gas release; mesh opening size, diameter, and length can be customized per your drawing.
- Low Maintenance: The coating is chemically bonded to the titanium substrate, minimizing risk of peeling or delamination, thus extending service life beyond 3–5 years under normal operating conditions.
Typical Applications
- Chlor-alkali industry (chlorine gas production from brine electrolysis)
- Hypochlorite generation
- Electrochemical water treatment (disinfection)
- Chlorine dioxide production
- Organic electrochemistry where chlorine is an intermediate

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the typical lifespan of this anode?
A: Under normal operating conditions at 500 A/m² and proper brine quality, the anode can last 3–5 years. Actual lifespan depends on factors like electrolyte purity, temperature fluctuations, and current density.
Q2: Can the coating thickness be customized?
A: Yes, while our standard is 1.5 μm, we can adjust the coating thickness from 1.0 μm to 3.0 μm based on your specific application requirements. However, thicker coatings may affect catalytic performance.
Q3: What is the maximum current density this anode can handle?
A: The anode is rated for 500 A/m², but it can tolerate short-term peaks up to 800 A/m². For continuous operation above 500 A/m², we recommend consulting our technical team for a custom design.
Q4: How do I clean the anode if it gets fouled?
A: Gentle rinsing with deionized water is usually sufficient. For stubborn deposits, a mild acidic solution (e.g., 5% HCl) can be used, but avoid abrasive cleaning to protect the coating.
Q5: Do you provide a warranty?
A: Yes, we offer a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects. This covers coating delamination, visible cracks, or premature failure under normal use. Extended warranty is available upon request.
Q6: Can you supply anodes for non-cylindrical cell designs?
A: Absolutely. We can manufacture flat plate, mesh, rod, or custom-shaped anodes. Please provide your cell dimensions and we will propose a suitable design.
Q7: What packing method is used for international shipping?
A: Each anode is individually wrapped in anti-static foam and placed in a sturdy wooden crate to prevent damage during transit. We also provide export-grade packaging with moisture barrier.
Q8: Is there a minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, the MOQ is 10 pieces. For custom anodes, the MOQ may be lower depending on the complexity. We also welcome small trial orders for initial evaluation.
