Electrochemical Cells
Electrochemical Flow Cell
The Uniscan Instruments electrochemical flow cell uses a screen printed electrode (SPE) for the determination of an analyte in an electrolyte. The SPE incorporates a carbon counter and working electrode with a Ag/AgCl electrode laid down on a ceramic substrate. These SPE's are available with an unmodified or modified carbon working electrode. The cell is precision engineered from Perspex (methyl methacrylate).
The flow cell and sensors were designed to be used in the evaluation of novel enzymes, produced by molecular biology techniques to be selectively responsive and sensitive to the presence of pesticides. Novel enzymes have been used to rapidly and routinely quantify pesticides in water and another environmental samples at concentrations below recommended acceptance levels.
Student Voltammetry Cell
Perfect for the undergraduate lab, this innovative cell design gives students a rapid way to set up a voltammetry cell without all that hassle of polishing electrodes, tending to reference electrodes, and chasing countless cables around the lab bench.
Single use, printed electrode designs are available in quantity packaging at a fraction of the cost of more traditional electrode designs. Use them one time and then just throw them away.
Standard Corrosion Cell (1 Litre)
A large volume cell designed for corrosion experiments which meets the requirements for many ASTM corrosion specifications.
The cell features a large 40/35 centre neck opening which can accept a variety of metal corrosion sample mounts. A water jacket allows thermal control of cell contents.
Standard equipment shipped with each cell includes a reference electrode with Luggin tube, platinum counter electrode with isolation tube, digital thermometer with Thermo-Well, dual gas inlet for purging/blanketing cell solution, and a condenser tube.
Complete 3-Electrode Cell Kit
This product combination gives you everything you need to set up a traditional three-electrode voltammetry experiment. This glass cell (125 mL) comes equipped with a silver/silver chloride reference electrode, platinum counter electrode, and a set of Teflon stoppers. For the single working electrode included in this package, you may choose either glassy carbon, gold, or platinum as the electrode material.
Honeycomb Spectrolectrochemical Cell
The unique spectroelectrochemical cell features a patterned "honeycomb" electrode card which mounts easily inside a thin-layer quartz cuvette. A special cuvette cap securely holds the honeycomb electrode card and a separate reference electrode in the proper position within the cuvette.
The working electrode is perforated with a honeycomb pattern of holes which allow light to pass through the electrode. The active surface of the working electrode includes a metal coating along the inner walls of the holes. As the light beam from the spectrometer passes through the holes, the beam grazes the walls of each hole. Thus, the beam samples a relatively long path length along the surface of the working electrode by sampling along the walls of each hole.
Quartz Photoelectrochemical Cell
Pine has designed a variety of quartz photoelectrochemical cells, and they can customize such cells to meet your specific research needs.
Typical cells feature a large port through which a photoanode (often a silicon wafer) can be inserted down into the cell. Various side ports accept a counter electrode (typically a platinum coil) and a reference electrode. Accessories for sparging/purging the cell solution with gases are also available.
Visible or ultraviolet light can pass through either of the two flat ends of the cell. In cases where optically flat windows are required, one (or both) of the flat ends can be replaced with a removable optical window.
In addition to finding use in photoelectrochemical research, quartz cells are also popular for applications where the solvent system being used (i.e., strong base) would dissolve a typical borosilicate glass cell.
