platinized titanum mesh anode

yo yo. "Platinized" means that the titanium anode is coated with platinum? Such electrodes can be used in the same way as a regular platinum cathode/anode? sounds good, but probably the life of the equipment is much shorter

Most of the “platinized” electrodes are a scam and contain no platinum.

See one of NurdRage’s videos how he was scammed with platinized electrodes that weren’t. Somewhere there is a thread that deals with this, and there’s a reliable source for these electrodes there.

I bought a platinized electrode from Amazon, that was mentioned in this old thread:

I successfully used it to make some sodium chlorate, and there was no visible degradation, so this one seems to be legit.
