Titanium Basket For Electroplating

Listing ID #7647445

A titanium anode basket is a specialized component used in various electroplating and electrochemical processes. It is designed to hold and protect anodes, which are electrodes that release positive ions during these processes.
Basic Details:

• Base Material: The base material of the basket is titanium. Titanium is chosen for its excellent corrosion resistance, especially in aggressive chemical environments.
• Anode Support: The primary function of the basket is to securely hold and protect the anodes. Anodes can be made of various materials, such as platinum, iridium, or mixed metal oxides, depending on the specific electrochemical process.
• Basket Design: The design of the basket may vary depending on the anode's shape and size. It is typically constructed as a cage or holder to accommodate the anode securely.
• Electrolyte Flow: The basket design often includes openings or mesh to allow the electrolyte (the liquid or solution in which the electrochemical process occurs) to flow through and make contact with the anode.

Specifications/Additional Details:

• Size and Shape: The size and shape of the titanium anode basket can vary widely based on the anode's dimensions and the specific application's requirements. They can range from small cylindrical baskets to larger, more complex designs.
• Anode Compatibility: The basket should be designed to accommodate the specific type and size of anode being used in the electrochemical process. This includes ensuring a secure fit for the anode within the basket.
• Anode Connection: There should be provisions for securely connecting the anode to the electrical supply, such as threaded connections, clips, or clamps, depending on the anode's design.
• Electrical Isolation: In some cases, it may be necessary to provide electrical isolation between the anode and the basket to prevent direct contact. This can be achieved through insulating materials or coatings.
• Chemical Resistance: Titanium is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, making it suitable for use in various electrochemical processes involving corrosive solutions.
• Temperature Resistance: Consider the maximum operating temperature of the electrochemical process and ensure that the titanium basket can withstand it without degradation.
• Customization: Manufacturers often offer customization options to meet specific requirements, such as the number of anodes the basket can hold, the basket's size, and other design features.
• Quality Standards: Look for baskets that meet industry-specific quality and safety standards to ensure reliable performance in electrochemical applications.
• Maintenance: Consider ease of maintenance and cleaning. Some baskets may have designs that allow for quick and easy removal of anodes and cleaning of the basket.
• Cost: The cost of a titanium anode basket can vary depending on its size, specifications, and customizations.
