# Electrolysis anodes

Carbon/graphite anodes and electrodes for electrolytic processes that need hardness, strength and controlled low thermal conductivity.

Family: Electrical applications

## Description
Industrial electrolysis uses dense, hard carbons when lower thermal conductivity than full graphite is required, or specific graphites depending on the electrolyte.

ESGRAF recommends the material by current, medium and geometry. Send drawing, electrolyte and service conditions for a quote.
