Titanium TA1 Expanded Mesh For Hydrogen Fuel Cell Anode Mesh 3*5mm

Description of Expanded Metal Mesh

The primary distinction in expanded metal lies in its post-production processing. Raised mesh (Standard) is the direct result of the slitting and stretching process, where the strands and bonds are set at a sharp angle to the plane of the sheet. This creates a 3D surface with exceptional rigidity and natural slip resistance, making it the go-to choice for industrial walkways and safety grates.

In contrast, flattened mesh is created by passing the raised mesh through a cold-rolling mill. This reduces the thickness of the strands and levels them into a single horizontal plane. The result is a smooth, safe-to-touch surface that is roughly 5% lighter and ideal for architectural partitions, furniture, and filtration screens where a flush finish is required.

Specification of Expanded Metal Mesh

Features of Expanded Metal Mesh

1. Extreme Corrosion Resistance

Titanium forms a stable protective oxide layer, providing near-permanent durability in marine environments, strong acids (like nitric acid), and chlorides—far outperforming stainless steel.

2. High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Titanium offers strength comparable to steel but is approximately 45% lighter. The expansion process creates a one-piece structure without welds or joints, ensuring high integrity with significantly reduced weight.

3. Excellent Electrochemical Performance

It is an ideal substrate for electrolysis, water treatment, and hydrogen energy. It is widely used as a base for MMO (Mixed Metal Oxide) coated anodes in fuel cells and desalination systems.

4. Superior Stability & Biocompatibility

• High-Temperature Resistance: Maintains structural stability in environments up to 600°C.

• Biocompatible: Non-toxic and non-magnetic, making it suitable for medical implants and precision filtration.
