Breakthrough Electrode Manufacturing Technology

JUNA TECH’salkaline electrodesutilize anin-situ growth combined with electrodepositionmanufacturing process. Unlike conventional techniques such asthermal spraying or plasma spraying, this methoddirectly grows specialized micro-nano structuresonnickel mesh or nickel foam substrates, significantly increasing the electrode’sspecific surface areaand exposingmore active sites. Compared to traditional coatings, this process eliminatesstress mismatch issues, preventing large-scale delamination and ensuringlong-term stability.

Additionally, thein-situ growth technologycan be adapted forvarious nickel mesh and nickel foam substrates, allowing precise control overcatalyst compositionto achievehigh catalytic activity. Furthermore, this technique enablesmicrostructural customization, formingordered electrode structuresthat enhance theactive reaction area.
