FlexCell-PTFE Electrochemical Test Cell (GAS-83100)
OVERVIEW
FlexCell-PTFE is a three-electrode electrochemical test cell for a wide range of 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.
The laterally positioned Haber-Luggin capillary maintains a defined distance from the working electrode for reproducible potential measurements. Gas can be supplied to the working electrode for gas-diffusion electrode testing. Its PTFE counter-electrode compartment, PSU working-electrode holder and 200 W heating elements support operation at temperatures up to 150°C.
