Mixed Metal Oxides (MMO) Coated Titanium Wire Anode
Feature:
YUXI's MMO wire anodes consist of a high tensile strength pure titanium wire substrate which is coated by an electro-catalytic film of noble metal oxideThe Mixed Metal Oxide ( MMO ) coating film activates the titanium allowing the combined product to act as a very effective impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) anode in a variety of applications. The design life of the anode depends on the operating current in various applications from soil to seawater. The anodes are manufactured in three diameters: 1.0mm, 1.5 mm and 3.0mm. Due to the extremely low consumption rate of the coating (measured in terms of milligrams per year) at different current output, the projected life of the anodes varies from 15 to 50 years.


QUALITY SUBSTRATE MATERIAL

Our MMO wire anodes are manufactured from high-tensile titanium, which meets commercially ASTM B348 Grade I/II standards.

NOBEL METAL OXIDE COATING

Whether operating in soil, mud, fresh water or seawater, mixed metal oxide coatings demonstrate high chemical stability, even in environments with low pH values. Depend on the form of usage, the coatings can be mixed of two or more metal oxides such as iridium oxides (IrO2), tantalum oxides (Ta2O5) and ruthenium oxides (RuO2). Based upon accelerated life testing conducted by an independent laboratory, our MMO coating has been proven to be superior to other similar products in the market.


 Ir–Ta Mixed Metal Oxide Catalyst

The iridium-tantalum mixed metal oxide catalyst is recommended for use in soil or fresh water, where there is either no
chloride ions or low chloride ions present.
