Strip anode is mostly utilized for the erosion insurance of seawater structure, Pilings, Piers, Jetties and drifting vessels and so on. Normally these anodes are utilized in the security of Seawater Application. Strip anode is a vital part for Cathodic Protection frameworks in seawater structures. It is made out of a valuable metal blended oxide impetus in the titanium plates by warm cycle.

Titanium strip anodes are fabricated utilizing titanium ASTM B 265 Gr. 1 or 2, Coated with Platinum bunch valuable metal blended oxide covering. MMO covering comprises of Ir and Ta and it is appropriate for use in all cathodic assurance applications. Since blended metal oxide anodes have a very low utilization rate, the titanium substrate stays consistent over the plan lifetime of the anode.

The leading anti-corrosion & uniform current distribution characters, it have great physical and mechanical properties of titanium. MMO covered anodes are emphatically suggested for Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) application. We likewise fabricated and provided FRP Insulated Strip anode for different clients.

Ships are often exposed to very harsh marine environments. Due to the environment in which they operate, the ship’s hull is often exposed sea environmental corrosion that can reduce the life.

The corrosion of seawater as regards to general corrosion on steel increases with increasing temperature, oxygen content, water velocity, the content of corrosive contaminants, eroding particles, and conductivity. The seawater containing salt forms a perfect electrolyte with the ship’s hull, fully made up of iron (mild steel), to form a galvanic cell.

Galvanic cell occurs when two dissimilar are in contact with each other leads to corrosive medium (electrolyte) i.e. the more active metal undergoes corrosion and the less active metal acts as a cathode and stays protected. Like that way, people use to paint the ship hull. But it is impossible to paint often, since it can done only in dry dock condition.

So that people go for depressed current cathodic protection system with sacrificial anodes like aluminum, zinc, magnesium and GI anodes. But we should replace the anodes in very short period. 

Impressed current cathodic protection with MMO Coated and Platinum plated Titanium and Niobium anodes will last longer for 15 to 20 years and reference electrode for monitoring the system.

MMO (Mixed Metal Oxide) coated rubberized disc anodes are used to protect the ship or hull from sea water corrosion. Normally Titanium having noncorrosive, but it contains nonconductive material. MMO coated will give the conductivity in titanium as per the application and amperage. Zinc reference electrode will be placed in particular distance as per the cathodic protection system to monitor the conductivity of the MMO coating disc.   

Sea water is very corrosive environment because the salt present in it makes very good conductor of electricity. It creates a lot of free irons which accelerate oxidation of iron (mid steel) which made of oxidation.

When using MMO coated rubberized disc anode to protect the ship hull from sea water corrosion, external current are applied to convert high-potential anodic sites on a ship hulls to low-potential cathodic sites. This ensures the ship hull surface is protected from corrosion.

We can install MMO coated disc in the hull by passing DC current by a rectifier which will protect the ships life longer nearly 20 to 25 years depends upon the usage of the ship which afloat often.  

MMO coated rubberized disc size well be customized depends upon the design of the CP system.

Advantages:

• Ø  Durability compared to galvanic anode.
• Ø  Demonstrate reliability.
• Ø  Optimum documented corrosion production at minimum overall cost.  
• Ø  Anodes are lite, sturdy and compact for easy shipping, storage and installation.

Tianno manufacturing platinum as well as MMO coated disc anodes. Below product recently supplied to Singapore.

Platinized rod used in cantiliver anodes with active part of plating to protect the gigantic pump internals, suction, condenser box and pipelines etc.,

Platinum is an excellent catalyst due to its high conductivity and low consumption rate. Platinum deposition made by electroplating method over a high corrosion resistance substrate (Titanium). Since Titanium substrates is having non-corrosive nature form by insulating oxide film by platinum plantings.

Platinized titanium rod are usually used in cantilever anode which is used for protecting pipeline internals, suction and condenser box internal for 30 years and more by applying DC current with transformer rectifier. Normally titanium is well known for its high resistance to corrosion both water and chemical media but titanium is the poor electricity conductor. So we use platinum/ MMO plating/ Coating to increase the conductivity.

 Advantages:

• Ø  Low consumption rate that conserves precious platinum.
• Ø  Favorable dimensional stability.
• Ø  Corrosion resistance ensures durability with easy maintainability of the cathode to be protects.
• Ø  Light weight, as well as favorable current distribution in electroplating.
