Abstract:
      Coated titanium anode is a high-performance electrode with great application prospects in zinc electrodeposition. Anode coating was prepared by thermal decomposition method. Characterization of coated titanium anodes using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear scanning voltammetry (LSV), alternating current impedance testing (EIS), lifetime testing, and zinc electrodeposition. Explore the effects of Ir, Ru, and Mn on the morphology, electrochemical performance, corrosion resistance, and current efficiency of zinc electrodeposition of anodic coatings. The results show that the catalytic activity of several oxides in descending order is IrO2>RuO2> β-MnO2, IrO2, RuO2, and MnO2 can form metal oxide solid solutions, improve coating morphology, enhance coating stability and lifespan. The anode enhanced electrolysis life of Ti/IrO2-RuO2-MnO2 is 108 hours, and the current efficiency of zinc electrodeposition can reach 90.86%, with good stability and electrochemical performance.
