Some companies claim to have solid platinum electrodes on their water ionizers. Is that better than titanium platinum coated?
Solid platinum electrodes would be cost prohibitive to begin with. The electrodes are one of the most expensive components of the water ionizer. Also, platinum is a very soft metal (as is gold) and therefore would not be an appropriate material for the electrode base, which is why titanium is used. Anyone claiming to have solid platinum electrodes in the water ionizers they are selling do not know their own product because solid platinum electrodes are, in a practical sense, not possible in a water ionizer.
