Product Description

PMMA / Acrylic Electrochemical Cell
Adjustable Gap · H-type / Single Cell · Modular Electrochemical Reactor

Product Overview
The FrankLab Acrylic Electrochemical Cell is a modular, transparent, large-volume electrochemical reactor designed for mechanism studies, membrane separation, ion transport analysis, and long-duration electrolysis.
Compared with traditional glass cells, PMMA cells provide:
Larger working volume
Fully visible internal structure
Adjustable electrode distance
Replaceable ion-exchange membrane
Excellent mechanical strength for long-time operation
This platform is widely used in COelectrolysis, water splitting, ion-selective transport, electrodialysis, and scale-up validation experiments.
