Platinized Titanium Anode 2"x3"

There are a lot of fake platinized Titanium anodes out there that completely destroy your chemistry experiments, but the ones sold here are the real thing.

Its totally real, works as a catalyst for H2O2

I estimated area at around 32 cm2, running it at 8a/4.4v so 250ma/cm2 in Perch cell for 144 hours and it performed very well no discoloration or signs of degradation. I can't speak for durability, pt layer thickness ect. and It's my only mesh anode but it does what it's supposed to do.

In a field FULL of counterfeit and downright deceitful descriptions claiming platinized titanium anodes, you can stop here and look no further. These are absolutely what you are looking for in a platinum anode. When you need a non-reactive anode for chlorate cells or other corrosive electrolysis procedures, platinum is the way to go. So just to be sure, I performed several tests to confirm it’s platinum, including the quick and easy H2O2 check, which shows all I needed to know (but honestly, you can tell just by looking that it is plated with true platinum). That said, there’s more to it than just the platinum plate. Like, how rugged is it? Will it stand up to a particularly heavy current? How long? So I wanted to wait a while before leaving this review. As, only time will tell if I can depend on this purchase. Which, I am happy to say, I can give a five star review. I’ve been running this anode in a chlorate cell a bit over 3 months now, 7V @ 4A in a saturated KCl electrolyte and titanium cathode. This produced plenty of KClO3 at a decent rate but more importantly, I have noticed zero corrosion on the anode. It looks just as good as the day I received it. I know that’s not pushing it hard and I’m sure I could easily take it up higher, push it harder, but I’m in no rush and that seems to be the sweet spot for my setup. So what else can I say? It does its job, it’s exactly as what it is described, a decent sized platinized titanium anode. Forget MMO or messing with PbO2, this is all you need for small scale electrolysis of anything corrosive.

The item arrived on schedule, and it seems to be a good quality electrode. It should work well for electroplating a new finish on small pieces of jewelry.
