Our electrowinning anodes integrate years of experience, research and development.With fully Integrated & 100% in-house production facility we are able to Internally controlled workmanship for alloying, rolling blade, head bar tinning and casting, welding, cutting & packaging.   Although anodes are manufactured to client’s designs, with each stage of manufacture using the best quality raw materials and controlled by a strict quality process system, anodes are produced efficiently and consistently within estimated time.   Anodes made of lead alloys are used in the electrowinning and plating of metals such as manganese, copper, nickel, and zinc. Rolled lead-calcium-tin and lead antimony alloys are the preferred anode materials in these applications, because of their high resistance to corrosion in the sulfuric acid used in electrolytic solutions. Lead anodes also have high resistance to corrosion by seawater, making them economical to use in systems for the cathodic protection of ships and offshore rigs. Rolled lead anodes have become the industry benchmark with the benefits of fine grain structure, less segregation and elimination of cracks and voids resulting in more uniform corrosion of the anode.   The shape and size of the copper bar and the anode plate are made to customer specifications The copper bar is tin-plated and then given a homogeneous coat of lead several millimeters thick as protection from corrosion caused by aggressive acid mist. This method of protecting the anode bar also ensures the best possible bond between lead and copper for improved current flow and long service life. Chemical Composition The lead anodes are manufactured in calcium-tin-lead (Ca/Sn/Pb), antimonial lead (Sb/Pb) and silver-lead (Ag/Pb) alloys which are the preferred alloys for these applications with their high resistance to corrosion in the sulphuric acid based electrolyte solutions. Lead anode alloys generally consist of tin, Calcium, and Antimony. The favoured alloys, based on the specific application, are lead- antimony as well as lead-Calcium-Tin alloys. One reason for this is because of the alloys’ resistance to corrosion in the sulfuric acid that’s used for electrolytic solutions. (Lead-alloy anodes are used in electro winning – also known as electro extraction – as well as for plating metals such as manganese, copper, nickel, and zinc.) Lead anodes have superior attributes, such as being highly resistant to the corrosive effects of seawater. We also offer custom Lead Alloys to meet your specifications We specialize in manufacturing complete Lead Anode and Anode Plates for Zinc, Nickel and Copper extraction electrolysis plant. Electrowinning of copper, nickel, cobalt and zinc in SX-EW processing of ores. Ca/Sn/Pb alloy is generally used for copper, nickel and cobalt applications. Ag/Pb alloy is the preferred alloy in zinc electrowinning Packing The finished anodes are packed together in wooden pallets with thick thermocol in between each Anode to prevent the individual anodes from bending.Do's & Dont;'s Remember, proper care of anodes will pay off in longer life. Try these suggestions with new Republic anodes. Do not leave new anode in chromium solution when tank is idle. Instead, remove them and place them in clean water after use until a uniform brown film of lead peroxide is formed on the surface. Do not confuse this dark brown lead peroxide coating with lead chromate. Lead chromate (PbCrO4) is yellow in color and acts as an insulation. This should be removed in order to restore the anode to the most efficient service level. We recommend that approximately two inches of lead anode be above the solution level at all times. We do not recommend mixing old and new anodes together. Adding new anodes intermittently in order to obtain amperage needed could result in new anodes scaling up very rapidly. If it is not practical to replace all anodes at one time, we suggest extreme care be given to the new anodes to assure proper breaking in for efficient performance. https://www.hmsmetal.in/lead-wool.htm https://www.hmsmetal.in/lead-wool.htm Thu, 20 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0530 Lead wool consists of thin strands of lead and is primarily used as caulking to seal joints between lead and steel fittings.

Our Radiation Shielding door includes everything needed for quick and cost efficient installation. An extensive range of materials and finishes are available to provide maximum design versatility while meeting the aesthetic and performance needs of any facility. Shielding Information HMS Metal offers a variety of lead thickness. The lead thickness is determined by the intended application of the product and the determination of thickness is the responsibility of the purchaser. For frames and doors the lead sheet is applied to the inside of the skin of the door on the “pull” side. Ensuring the continuity of the lead lining in the frame and the wall is the responsibility of the frame installer. Our lead shielding is of a continuous sheet of lead as specified. The sheet lead will be unpierced, free of defects, laminations, scale blisters, cracks or penetration. The amount of shielding necessary in a door or frame should be equal to the shielding required in the wall in which it is to be installed in. The sheet lead shall be shaped to fit into the frame contour and inserted in the frame. All lead joints are welded together to insure continuity of shielding and to secure in place during transit and installation. Hardware & Shielding Hardware selection can be the toughest decision on the success of your installation process. The final hinge system has to be appropriately specified to handle the heavy weights that the sheet lead imposes on the door. Door hardware is usually specified and supplied by others. Hardware selection should ensure lead lining in its components are equal to the door and frame assembly. Necessary precautions are needed in the field when installing the hardware to prevent penetration of existing lead shielding in door and frame.Site Storage and Protestion of Material All materials must be thoroughly inspected upon receipt of goods. All discrepancies and/or damages shall be immediately noted and reported in writing to us and on the freight bill of lading when received. All materials received shall be properly stored on blocks or skids with adequate clearance from floor with a covering that will allow adequate circulation around product. Keep materials free from any contact of water, moisture, or dampness on a flat, dry level surface. The room should be properly ventilated to carry the dampness out of room. Also avoid any exposure to direct sunlight, extreme heat source, and humidity or excessive temperatures.Doors Installation Do not start your installation in areas that still contain excessive moisture from wet plaster, or cement. Ventilation systems should be operational and functioning correctly. Allow doors to acclimatize to surroundings before actual installation. During installation the frame should bet set plumb, square and level at the correct elevation. Ensure that the frame is adequately secured into the studded wall to properly support the door weight and size. Use a proper hinge system rated for door weight and size. We recommends the use of pivot or continuous type hinges for all applications. When butt hinges are to be specified and used they must be fully rated for the weight and size of the lead lined door. A minimum of three hinges should be used for doors up to 90″ in height. For every extra 30″ of door height add one more hinge or portion thereof. Be sure to follow all manufacturers’ recommendations and guidelines for locations and quantities, when different to above. Consult with the site physicist to insure proper shielding is maintained at each opening.Frame Installation It is critical that the frame be installed by an experienced person who can ensure it to be plumb and square in the available opening that is provided. The frame must be securely fastened into place within the studded wall prior to the receiving of the drywall. The lead lined wall must then be built into the frame to effectively provide a shielding overlap for the lead in the face and throat of the frame.Order Information Required When ordering a door and frame it is critical that all necessary information be supplied. We cannot be held responsible for insufficient or missing information. It is up to the purchaser to ensure that all necessary information is provided at time of quoting. When ordering frames for lead glass, please specify whether the width and height you provide are for the glass viewing area or the frame. E.g.: When specifying 12″ x 12″ the actual glass could be this size but not the viewing area. The frame can add a few inches all around and the glass sits inside of this frame. The 12″ x12″ can be taken as an inside frame size but is usually considered an outside frame size. A small sketch is usually the best clarification in ensuring there are no mistakes made.Considerations and Information Required When Oedering : Door Size: Exact width and height Door Swing: See swing selector page Lead Shielding: Thickness or lead glass lead equivalency Door Frame Type: Hollow Metal – welded or knock down type Window Frame – Welded or Split- type Door Type: Metal Face or Wood – Type of finish (veneer, birch, oak, plastic, laminate etc.) Throat of Frame Wall thickness and construction: Wood stud, metal stud, masonry Type of Hardware required: Door Closer Hinges and number – pivot, butt, continuous (Hinge capacity must be verified for compatibility with door weight) Passage Set – Lock set or latch Labeled?

Proper installation of additional lead wherever penetrations are created will eliminate potential leaks and ensure total protection. Additional sheet lead can be supplied to easily allow for the proper shielding of penetrations such as receptacles, light switches, ducts and telephone/data cables. Providing Suffcient shielding from Different types of Radiation Different types of radiation are emitted with different levels of energy behind them, but all are caused by unstable atoms. The greater the energy of the radiation, the greater the level of shielding required to safely shield against it. When proper shielding is not provided, radiation can cause burns on the skin and at high levels, puts people at risk of radiation sickness. Alpha radiation (α) is comprised of very weak particles that are unable to travel more than a few centimeters when airborne and therefore requires little shielding. In fact, the outermost layer of human skin is actually enough to protect against this type of radiation. Beta radiation (β) particles can travel farther because of its small mass and requires more protection, such as heavy clothing or a thick piece of plastic, wood or aluminum. Certain beta radiation particles can penetrate and burn the skin. Gamma radiation (γ) consists of photon energy, not particles, and can travel far distances. Protection from gamma radiation requires the use of dense materials such as lead to provide effective radiation shielding. Gamma rays are biologically hazardous and can cause tissue, bone and organ damage if proper protection is not used during long periods of exposure. X-ray radiation are considerably stronger and have a longer wavelength than other types of radiation and requires thick, dense shielding, such as lead. Because prolonged x-ray radiation exposure can cause DNA mutations, it is classified as a carcinogen. Impotant fator of determining Your Radiation Shielding Requirement Radiation shielding is available in varying degrees ranging from protective vests and leaded glass barriers to rooms constructed with lead lined drywall, doors and windows. High energy radiation applications and those involving nuclear power may also require the use of lead bricks for additional shielding protection. There are various lead shielding considerations including radiation type, equipment orientation, workload and occupancy but exposure time and distance are the most important in calculating the level of protection required for your application. https://www.hmsmetal.in/lead-skirt-and-vest.htm https://www.hmsmetal.in/lead-skirt-and-vest.htm Wed, 20 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0530 Skirt – Vest duo is a 2 Piece protective gear for those who wish to be clad in style.
