When is the best time to stock titanium anodes?

In the metal processing industry, price changes of the precious metal iridium have a significant impact on titanium anode manufacturers. As we all know, the quality of titanium anodes is closely related to the anode coating. As a raw material and additive in the manufacturing process of titanium anodes, the price fluctuation of precious metal iridium directly affects the manufacturing cost of titanium anodes. Rising iridium prices will lead to an increase in titanium anode production costs, which will in turn increase customers' purchasing costs. Since the price of iridium changes every day, the quotations of titanium anode manufacturers will also change with the changes in the price of iridium.
