C012-2 All-Quartz Spectroelectrochemical Cell

Product Introduction

The C012-2 All-Quartz Spectroelectrochemical Cell is a sealed quartz electrochemical cell designed for spectroelectrochemical experiments requiring high optical transparency and a sealed cell structure. Developed from the C012-1 model, it features an additional sealing cover to improve the sealing performance of the cell body.

Manufactured from high-transmittance quartz, the cell offers light transmittance of at least 95%. Its one-piece polished construction eliminates adhesive joints, providing an integrated cell body suitable for demanding laboratory applications. The PTFE lid supports customizable round or square openings, while optional sand-core salt bridges or Luggin capillary salt bridges provide flexible electrode configurations.

Performance Features

• Sealed cell design: An additional sealing cover improves the sealing performance compared with the C012-1 open-cell design.

•  High optical transmittance: Quartz construction provides light transmittance of at least 95%.

•  One-piece polished construction: The cell body is polished as an integrated component rather than assembled by gluing.

• High-temperature resistance: The quartz cell body can withstand temperatures up to 900°C.

• Customizable PTFE lid: The lid can be configured with round or square openings according to experimental requirements.

•  Optional salt bridges: A sand-core salt bridge or Luggin capillary salt bridge can be added for different electrochemical setups.

Working Principle

The C012-2 provides a sealed environment for electrochemical measurements combined with optical observation or spectroscopic analysis. Light passes through the high-transmittance quartz cell body, allowing optical signals to be collected during electrochemical experiments.

Electrodes and optional salt bridges can be arranged through the customized openings in the PTFE lid. The sealing cover helps improve the enclosure of the cell, supporting experiments that require a more controlled cell environment.

Technical Parameters

Application Scenarios

• Spectroelectrochemical research: Electrochemical experiments combined with optical or spectroscopic measurements.

•  Electrode and material studies: Investigation of electrochemical behavior and material properties under controlled cell conditions.

•  Electrochemical interface research: Experiments requiring optical access to the electrolyte and electrode system.

•  Laboratory electrochemical testing: Applications that benefit from a sealed quartz cell and customizable electrode arrangements.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the main difference between the C012-1 and C012-2 spectroelectrochemical cells?

The main difference is the sealing design. The C012-2 adds a sealing cover to the cell body, improving sealing performance compared with the open-cell C012-1.

2. What material is used for the C012-2 cell body?

The cell body is made of high-transmittance quartz, with a specified light transmittance of at least 95%.

3. Is the C012-2 cell body glued together?

No. The quartz cell body uses one-piece polished construction rather than adhesive bonding.

4. What is the maximum temperature the C012-2 can withstand?

The quartz cell body can withstand temperatures up to 900°C. The PTFE lid must be separated from the cell body during heating or sterilization.

5. Can the PTFE lid be customized?

Yes. The lid can be manufactured with round or square openings according to the user's experimental requirements.

6. Can a salt bridge be installed in the C012-2 cell?

Yes. Optional configurations include a sand-core salt bridge and a Luggin capillary salt bridge.

7. What experiments is the C012-2 suitable for?

It is suitable for spectroelectrochemical research and other electrochemical experiments requiring high optical transmittance, a quartz cell body, and an improved sealed configuration.
