Titanium Expanded Mesh – Good Corrosion & Oxidation Resistant Ability

Titanium expanded mesh is made of titanium plate or titanium coil. It is cut and stretched by automatic mesh expanders to form a metal mesh with uniform diamond-shaped openings. Titanium expanded mesh is mostly used as a mixed metal oxide electrode base material to increase the surface area so that more catalyst material can be used. In addition, the flow rate through the base material can be adjusted upwards for better ion separation. Due to the uniformly distributed edges across the anode surface, titanium expanded mesh produces excellent results in current density and plating, providing good solution movement, electrolyte transfer, and plating.

An electrolyzer consists of a tank body, anode, and cathode, mostly with a diaphragm separating the anode and cathode chambers. Electrolyzer anodes are mixed metal oxide electrodes, made of base materials containing a plurality of metal oxides. Electrolyzers work by electrically electrolyzing water from the electrolyzer to hydrogen and oxygen. Currently, the electrolyzer is developing towards large capacity and low energy consumption and is widely used in the chloralkali and hydrogen-oxygen production industries.
