Products Description
What Is a Ru-Ir Coated Titanium Anode Basket?
The ruthenium-iridium anode basket is an anode device used in electrolytes and is commonly used for metal electrodeposition and other metal processing processes in electrolysis. Ruthenium and iridium are two rare metals with excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature stability, making them suitable for use as anode materials.
The structure of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket is usually made of wire or tube into a basket shape and contains a certain amount of ruthenium and iridium. This structure allows the electrolyte to flow around the metal surface to ensure uniform metal electrodeposition. The design of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket also provides a large surface area, helping to increase the efficiency of the electrochemical reaction.

The main features of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket:
Good corrosion resistance: Ruthenium and iridium are rare metals with excellent corrosion resistance. They can maintain high stability under harsh conditions such as strong acid, strong alkali, and high temperature, so they are suitable for some electrolysis processes that require corrosion resistance.
High Temperature Stability: The ruthenium-iridium anode basket is capable of operating in high-temperature environments and is very useful for metal electrodeposition or other electrochemical processes that require high temperatures. The high melting points and thermal stability of ruthenium and iridium enable them to resist corrosion and oxidation in high temperature environments.
High electrochemical efficiency: The design of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket generally provides a larger surface area, which can increase the reaction interface and improve the efficiency of the electrochemical reaction. It provides uniform current density distribution, ensuring uniform and consistent metal deposition.
Long service life: Due to the properties of the material, ruthenium iridium anode baskets have a long service life with proper use and maintenance. They are resistant to corrosion, oxidation and wear, thereby extending their service life in the electrolysis process.
Customizability: Ruthenium Iridium anode basket shapes and sizes can be customized to meet customer specific applications and needs. They can be adjusted according to the size and design requirements of the electrolyzer to accommodate different electrochemical processes.

How do ruthenium-iridium anode baskets work?

1. The ruthenium-iridium anode basket usually adopts a basket structure with many wires or thin tubes. This design helps the electrolyte flow around the metal surface, ensuring uniform and stable metal deposition.
3. When metal ions are adsorbed to the surface of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket, a reduction reaction occurs, that is, they lose their charge and are converted into solid metal. This reduction reaction results in metal deposition on the surface of the ruthenium-iridium anode basket.
5.Ruthenium and iridium have good corrosion resistance and high temperature stability. They are stable under strong acids, alkalis and high temperatures, and resistant to corrosion and oxidation. As a result, ruthenium-iridium anode baskets work reliably in electrochemical reactions that require corrosion resistance and high-temperature stability.
Typical Applications
Ru-Ir coated titanium anode baskets can be used in many industrial electrochemical systems, especially where corrosion resistance, current distribution and stable electrode performance are important.
Common application areas include:
In electroplating lines, titanium anode baskets are often used to hold anode balls, chips or other anode materials. A suitable basket structure helps maintain good electrolyte flow, stable current distribution and convenient operation.
Possible applications include:
• Copper plating
• Nickel plating
• Zinc plating
• Precious metal plating
• PCB and electronic plating
• General metal surface treatment
For electroplating applications, the basket size, mesh opening, hook design and electrical connection should be designed according to the plating tank and production process.
Ru-Ir MMO coating is often considered for chloride-containing water treatment or electrolysis environments. It can be used in selected systems where oxidation reactions, corrosion resistance and electrode life are important.
Possible applications include:
• Electrochlorination
• Industrial wastewater treatment
• Electrochemical oxidation
• Descaling equipment
• Electrolysis cells
• Custom water treatment equipment
For water treatment applications, the chloride concentration, pH value, temperature and current density should be confirmed before coating selection.
Many electrochemical systems require non-standard electrode structures. Ehisen can manufacture titanium anode baskets according to customer drawings, samples or installation space.
We can support small-batch development, prototype testing and batch production after technical confirmation.
Ru-Ir MMO Coating Selection
Ru-Ir coating usually refers to a ruthenium-iridium mixed metal oxide coating. It is commonly used in chloride-containing electrochemical environments where chlorine evolution or strong oxidation performance may be required.
In many projects, Ru-Ir coating is selected because it offers:
But Ru-Ir coating is not suitable for every working condition.
For some oxygen evolution systems, low-chloride systems or highly demanding oxidation environments, Ir-Ta coating may be a better choice. For some special high-stability or low-resistance applications, platinum coating may also be considered.
Before quotation, we recommend confirming the actual working conditions instead of selecting the coating only by name.
