What are the applications of MMO anode in the field of copper foil？
Apr 18, 2023
In the field of copper foil, mmo anodes can be applied in the following aspects:
1. Copper foil corrosion protection: mmo anodes can be used to protect the copper foil surface from corrosion. By forming an oxide layer on the anode, the anode can be consumed without damaging the copper foil.
2. Electrolytic copper foil: mmo anode can be used in the production process of electrolytic copper foil. They can be used as part of the cathode and anode to facilitate the transport of ions in the electrolyte between the cathode and anode, thereby forming a uniform copper foil.
3. Solar cells: In solar cells, mmo anodes can be used to form electrolytes for copper foils.
Capacitor manufacturing: mmo anodes can be used in the manufacturing process of capacitors. They can be used to produce high quality capacitors.
In electrolytic copper foil production, the commonly used MMO anodes are iridium (IrO2/Ta2O5) and titanium (TiO2) based anodes. These two anodes have good corrosion resistance and stability, and can be used in electrolytic copper foil production for a long time. Iridium-based anodes have higher corrosion resistance and longer service life, but are more expensive, while titanium-based anodes are more affordable. Therefore, electrolytic copper foil manufacturers can choose suitable MMO anode according to the actual needs.
