500A/m² Current Density Ruthenium-iridium Mesh Cylinder Anode for Chlorine Evolution Reaction
Product Spotlights
Since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory has been a reliable manufacturer of high-performance electrochemical anodes. Our 500A/m² Current Density Ruthenium-iridium mesh cylinder anode is specifically engineered for the Chlorine Evolution Reaction (CER), delivering exceptional efficiency and durability in chlor-alkali and wastewater treatment applications. With an annual export value of US$5–10 million and a global reach spanning North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond, we combine decades of expertise with advanced manufacturing to offer a product that meets the demanding needs of industrial electrolysis.
Key Features
- High Current Density (500 A/m²): Optimized for chlorine evolution, enabling faster reaction rates and higher productivity in electrolytic cells.
- Ruthenium-Iridium Coating: Provides excellent catalytic activity and long-term stability in aggressive chloride environments, reducing overpotential and energy consumption.
- Cylindrical Mesh Design: Maximizes surface area while maintaining uniform current distribution, improving mass transfer and gas bubble release.
- Corrosion-Resistant Substrate: Titanium mesh base ensures mechanical strength and resistance to acidic/chloride attack, extending service life.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in various diameters, lengths, and mesh openings to fit specific reactor configurations.
- Low Maintenance: Robust coating minimizes degradation, reducing downtime and replacement costs.

Advantages for Your Application
- Enhanced Chlorine Production: The high catalytic activity of Ru-Ir coating significantly lowers the chlorine evolution overpotential, allowing higher current efficiency (up to 95%+ in optimized conditions).
- Durability in Harsh Electrolytes: The titanium mesh substrate resists corrosion from chlorine gas, hypochlorite, and acidic electrolytes, ensuring a long operational life (typically 3–5 years or more depending on duty cycle).
- Uniform Current Distribution: The cylindrical mesh geometry promotes even current flow across the entire electrode surface, preventing localized hot spots and coating degradation.
- Easy Integration: Standard cylinder dimensions can be adapted to most industrial electrolyzers, including monopolar and bipolar configurations. Custom connectors, end caps, or welding tabs are available upon request.
- Cost-Effective Operation: Lower energy consumption and reduced maintenance translate to significant savings over the lifetime of the anode.
Applications
- Chlor-alkali industry (chlorine gas production)
- Electrochemical water treatment (disinfection, hypochlorite generation)
- Seawater electrolysis for anti-fouling and chlorine dosing
- Industrial wastewater oxidation (e.g., cyanide destruction)
- Laboratory-scale electrochemical studies

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the 500A/m² Ru-Ir mesh cylinder anode?
A: Lifespan depends on operating conditions such as current density, electrolyte composition, and temperature. In typical chlor-alkali environments at 500 A/m², the anode can last 3–5 years. Proper maintenance and avoiding extreme pH or temperature can extend service life. -
Q: Can you customize the cylinder dimensions to fit my existing electrolyzer?
A: Yes, we offer full customization of diameter, length, mesh opening, and end connections. Please provide your specific requirements or drawings, and we will produce accordingly. -
Q: Is the coating composition fixed, or can it be adjusted for different applications?
A: The standard coating is Ru-Ir oxide optimized for chlorine evolution. However, we can adjust the Ru/Ir ratio or add other elements (e.g., titanium, tantalum) for specific needs. Contact us to discuss your application. -
Q: Do you provide samples or trial orders?
A: Yes, sample orders are welcomed. We can produce small quantities for testing before bulk production. Please note that sample pricing may be higher than bulk rates. -
Q: What shipping ports do you use, and what are the lead times?
A: We ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, Foshan, or other major Chinese ports. Typical lead time for standard sizes is 15–25 working days after order confirmation. Custom designs may require 25–40 days. -
Q: Are there any certifications or quality guarantees?
A: We follow strict in-house quality control procedures. We do not claim specific third-party certifications unless explicitly provided. Each anode is tested for coating integrity, current density performance, and dimensional accuracy. We offer a warranty against manufacturing defects. -
Q: What is the recommended operating temperature range?
A: For optimal performance and coating longevity, we recommend operating below 80°C. Higher temperatures may accelerate coating degradation. Contact us for guidance on high-temperature applications. -
Q: How do I clean or maintain the anode?
A: Periodic rinsing with deionized water and gentle brushing can remove accumulated deposits. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the coating. In case of heavy scaling, consult our technical team for recommended cleaning agents.
