Bulk Electrolysis Cell
This cell is designed for the complete electrolysis of a solution species. Typical uses include determination of the number of electrons transferred per molecule, the absolute amount of an analyte, or electrosynthesis of a small amount (typically milligram quantities) of a new material. Components of the complete package are shown in the figure below.
Features
- Complete electrolysis of electroactive species in solution
- Large surface-area reticulated vitreous carbon working electrode
- Optional platinum gauze working electrode
- Use for small-scale (< 75 mL) electrosynthesis studies
- Monitor extent of reaction using BASi® stationary voltammetry electrodes
