Components and structure
Internal cables:
continuous copper core provides a steady current to the anode, hinged with 7 strands of tinned copper wire to ensure flexibility.
MMO wire:
a mixture of iridium/tantalum oxide coated on the surface of titanium wires as an anode body
Pre-filled calcined petroleum coke powders:
* The maximum run current density with coke backfill in soil environment;
* The contact resistance between the auxiliary anode and soil is reduced;
* An electrochemical reaction is performed between the carbon powder around the auxiliary anode (conductive polymer or MMO/Ti wire) and soil electrolyte, to prevent the protected matters from being subjected to electrochemical corrosion and prolong the service life of the auxiliary anode
Fabric coating layers:
* The carbon powder shall be coated around the anode in a circular shape and with a certain filling density, to make the carbon powder not moved, loosened, and dropped off in the process of storage and transportation, construction, and use to affect the normal use and service life of the flexible anode.
* It shall have excellent wear resistance, puncturing resistance, and mechanical strength;
* It shall have corrosion resistance, which is very important to apply underwater.
Long fiber braid:
* During construction and erection, the textile coating shall be prevented from wearing by the flexible anode, to further restrain and fix the carbon powder and the fabric coating.
* It shall have excellent wear resistance and mechanical strength;
* It shall have corrosion resistance, which is very important to apply underwater.
