H-Type Sealed Optical Electrochemical Cell

Product Description
Shipping & Delivery


Product Overview

The FrankLab H-Type Sealed Optical Electrochemical Cell is a dual-compartment electrochemical reactor designed for spectroelectrochemistry, photo-electrochemical studies, and membrane-separated reactions. This cell is ideal for CO₂ Reduction Reactions (CO₂RR), PEC (photo-electrochemical water splitting), and operando spectroscopy experiments, providing precise optical access and gas control.
The cell is available in both single-layer and dual-layer designs, allowing researchers to choose the configuration that best fits their experimental needs.

Key Features

•Dual-Chamber System:
Single-Layer Design: Simple and ideal for basic electrochemical reactions, offering one chamber for the reaction.
Dual-Layer Design: Features separated half-reactions with membrane separation, providing independent gas control for each chamber and minimizing product crossover.
•Optical Window for Spectroscopic Measurements:
Compatible with UV-Vis, Raman, and IR spectroscopy for in-situ analysis, allowing direct optical probing of the reaction zone without affecting the electrochemical setup.
•Gas Tight, Independent Atmosphere Control:
Independent gas inlet and outlet for each compartment, supporting gases like CO₂, O₂, Ar, and N₂.
The setup allows for bubble-free or sparged operation, ensuring consistent gas environments during the experiment.
•Modular Electrode Compatibility:
Compatible with a wide range of electrodes such as glassy carbon, platinum, gold, and Ag/AgCl reference electrodes.
Custom options for optical thin-layer electrodes.
Membrane Interface:
Features a flat membrane clamping zone compatible with Nafion, AEM, and CEM membranes, ideal for fuel cell configurations.

How to Use

•Handling & Assembly:

1. Wear gloves to avoid contamination (e.g., oils, sweat).

2. Use sharp blades or laser cutting to prevent damage to carbon fibers.

•Electrochemical Setup:

1. Ensure proper sealing between the carbon paper and catalyst layer to minimize contact resistance.

2. Calibrate the system for gas purging and optical measurements before starting experiments.


Storage & Transportation

•Storage Conditions:

1. Store in a dry, dust-free environment.

2. Temperature: 5°C–30°C, relative humidity: <60%.

•Handling:

1. Avoid pressure, folding, or rolling to prevent material damage.

2.Re-seal unused carbon paper in original packaging to preserve quality.
