Titanium anode basket

DSA anode is generally referred to as a dimensionally stable anode; it has been used in various electrochemical industries like electroplating, non-degradable wastewater treatment, seawater purification, cathodic protection, electrowinning, etc. The electrodeposited copper foil process was the reduction of copper from electrolytes using a DSA anode and titanium plate cathode. A high current is applied in this process, copper is deposited at a high rate on the cathode, and the oxygen evolution reaction increased in the anode. Increasing oxygen reaction facilitated degradation on the surface of the anode, a corresponding increase in applied voltage and power consumption. Therefore, the long-term stability of the DSA anode is the most important property for the electrodeposition of copper thin film. DSA anode is fabricated of two or three components of metal oxide such as iridium, ruthenium, tantalum, and platinum because of their electrochemical performance and stability.
