We are the leader in platinum clad anodes (platinized anodes). If you know the type of anode you are interested in, select it from the links at the top of this page. If you are unsure about the type of anode you need, please use the guides below.
Material Selection
Copper (Cu)
|
Good conductivity, low cost.
|
Niobium (Nb)
|
Passive film formation, high cost, high breakdown potential, fair conductivity.
|
Titanium (Ti)
|
Passive film formation, low cost, low breakdown potential, poor conductivity.
|
Platinum (Pt)
|
High corrosion resistance, high cost, good conductivity.

In reviewing the properties of these materials, it becomes quite clear that if a combination of these materials was developed which exploits only the advantages, the result would be a superior anode material. The most logical combination of materials would include the use of a platinum outer layer, very thin due to cost, a layer of niobium beneath the platinum to allow for a dimensionally stable anode, and a copper core for both conductivity and economy. The niobium layer should be heavy enough to withstand normal mechanical handling.
To properly manufacture an anode material which is composed of multilayers, sophisticated metallurgical processing techniques must be employed to insure integral contact between the metal layers. The ideal method of insuring this contact is by providing a metallurgical bond. All of our clad materials are manufactured through very tightly controlled metallurgical coprocessing techniques yielding complete metallurgical bonds. In obtaining this type of high integrity bonding, three materials then behave as one with no possibility of spalling or non-bonds. This method of fabrication used by Anomet insures that the corrosion engineer obtains a high quality anode material.
