FlexCell-PP Electrochemical Test Cell (GAS-83200)
OVERVIEW
FlexCell-PP is a three-electrode electrochemical test cell for flat materials, particularly gas-diffusion electrodes, corrosion samples and battery electrodes. The distances between the working, counter and reference electrodes are fixed to provide defined geometric conditions for comparable measurements.
A laterally positioned Haber-Luggin capillary helps minimise IR drop, while the cell design reduces field-line curvature and boundary effects caused by the sealing. Gas can also be supplied to the working electrode for measurements involving gas-diffusion electrodes. This PP/PMMA model operates at temperatures up to 80°C.
