The RuO2-IrO2-SnO2/Ti anodes were prepared using a sol–gel technique to explore their deactivation mechanisms under alternative current electrolysis conditions. Characterization methods including SEM, EDX, and XRD confirmed that a rutile structured RuO2–IrO2–SnO2 solid solution was achieved post-pyrolysis. Notably, upon deactivation, the solid solution structure and its active components were nearly absent. Electrochemical assessments revealed a reduction in the active area and an increase in coating resistance, attributed to the active components detaching from the anode surfaces. The investigation suggests that the degradation of the oxide anodes primarily results from the detachment of active components during alternative current electrolysis. This study provides crucial insights into the longevity and performance degradation of oxide-coated titanium anodes in marine applications and highlights areas for improvement in the resistance to electrolysis-induced degradation.
