Perchlorate pt anode plating
Hey guys,
I think we need a serious thread on Pt plated anodes for perchlorate.
I'm looking at buying a large Pt plated Ti anode from china to make 2-3kg of perchlorate/week. I'm wanting a 5 micron Pt plating thickness; this is
the maximum that most suppliers do on alibaba. Would this be thick enough? I know the americanpyrosupply anodes are 3 micron, and a bloody ripoff at
that.
It's going to be a mesh anode. I was looking at around $300-400 for a 5 micron plated mesh anode 200mmx100mm.
If I can successfully produce this perchlorate, I have several people who would be very interested in purchasing it around $60/kg, which would be very
lucrative for me if the initial investment for the cell is under $500. And I've always wanted my own source of perchlorate.
I might consider a chlorate MMO sell as well.

Just got a new quote for the anode. Here's the specs (see attached image). It's going to cost $106USD all up (!!) + $77 for DHL courier from china.
120x15x2mm Ti plate tab welded onto a 300x100x1mm mesh titanium, all plated in a 5 micron Pt layer. Now I haven't received it yet, and anything could
be wrong with it, but the seller is reputable on alibaba and I'm looking forward to using it.
If this anode is coated properly, I don't see why this would be freaking awesome pricing. And it's a big anode... I think I could easily put this in a
10L cell. Maybe a 10-15L stainless steel pot could act as the anode and the cell container?
