Product Introduction
Titanium-Based Lead Dioxide Anode is proven in European Tier1 hard chrome plating lines for delivering 99.8% coating uniformity with lower energy consumption. It helps reduce edge buildup while maintaining stable current distribution under high-load operations. Designed for hard chrome and precision electroplating, this anode supports long-term, consistent performance while reducing operational costs.

Product Features & Application
Documented performance benefits for electroplating and hard chrome operations:
■ Consistent Plating Quality
Delivers ±1.5% current deviation in 12:1 AR cavities (SEM-verified), reducing defects and maintaining uniform coatings across complex geometries.
■ Extended Operating Life
β-PbO₂ coating resists corrosion and mechanical wear, supporting continuous use under high current with fewer replacements.
■ Energy Savings
Reduces working voltage by up to 0.32V @250A/m² compared to Pb-Sn anodes (per ASTM G5), lowering power consumption during prolonged operation.
■ Versatile Industrial Use
Used in hard chrome plating, nickel and precious metal plating, and industrial wastewater treatment lines where stable, low-maintenance anodes are required.
Not recommended for:
• Fluoride-containing baths
• Current reversal applications
• Environments with pH >6.5
Product Details
■ Constructed with Grade 1 titanium for consistent conductivity and acid corrosion resistance.
■ Coated with dense β-PbO₂ using electrodeposition from Pb(NO₃)₂ bath at 65°C, followed by phase transformation at 450°C and stress-relief annealing at 280°C.
■ Surface hardness ≥85 HRB supports long-term resistance to abrasion in plating environments.
■ β-phase content >95% confirmed via XRD with preferred (101) orientation (EBSD analysis).
■ Columnar grain structure observed in SEM cross-section for stable, durable coatings.

FAQ
Q1: How do I estimate the anode lifetime in my system?
A: Lifetime = 12,000 ÷ (current density × K), where K=0.9 for CrO₃ >300g/L (per NASF data). We can calculate specific estimates for your operating conditions.
Q2: Can the anode be customized for different tank setups?
A: Yes, we provide fully customized sizes, connections, and coating thicknesses to suit your system requirements.
Q3: Do you provide certification documents with shipments?
A: Yes, each shipment includes SEM/EDS reports, coating verification, and RoHS/REACH compliance documents.
Q4: What is the MOQ for orders?
A: 5 pcs with batch certification and full traceability.
