What are the types of graphite anodes?

There are various types of graphite anode products, which can be classified into the following categories based on different classification criteria:

Classified by shape: plate, cylindrical, rod, etc. Plate-shaped graphite anode plates are suitable for anodes in various electrolytes in the electrolysis industry; cylindrical graphite anode plates have a large surface area and are suitable for electroplating various metal and non-metal carriers in the electroplating industry; rod-shaped graphite anode plates have high strength and are suitable for high-strength anodes in the electrolysis industry.

Classified by preparation method: natural graphite anode plates and artificial graphite anode plates. Natural graphite anode plates are made from natural graphite raw materials, with good electrical and thermal conductivity, but at a higher price; artificial graphite anode plates are made from graphitized raw materials, with higher strength and corrosion resistance, and at a lower price.

Classification by application: Used in the electrolysis industry, electroplating industry, wastewater treatment, and other fields. In the electrolysis industry, it is mainly used to produce chemical products such as chlor-alkali, caustic soda, and hydrochloric acid; in the electroplating industry, it is mainly used for electroplating various metal and non-metal carriers; in wastewater treatment, it is mainly used for electrolytic treatment of wastewater containing heavy metals, acids, and alkalis.

High-end graphite anode products: High-end graphite anodes are primarily used in magnesium electrolytic cells and are characterized by high bulk density, low resistivity, and strong flexural strength. They can serve as substitutes for foreign products.

The above is the classification and application of graphite anode products. Different types of graphite anodes are suitable for different industrial scenarios. Users can choose the appropriate products from our company according to their actual needs.
