Unsealed electrochemical cell, PTFE, 300 ml

Rp123.00

Our unsealed PTFE electrochemical cell is a specialized vessel carved entirely from high quality Polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon).

Why Choose PTFE Over Glass?

  • Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) Resistance: Glass dissolves in HF. PTFE is the primary choice for experiments involving fluorides or strong alkaline solutions (high pH) that would etch glass.

  • Contamination-Free: PTFE is chemically inert and has an ultra-smooth surface, preventing trace metal adsorption which is critical for high-purity electroanalysis.

  • Durability: Unlike glass, a PTFE cell will not crack or shatter if dropped or subjected to rapid temperature changes.

Primary Applications:

  • Battery Research: Testing Li-ion electrolyte stability where trace moisture or glass-leaching could ruin results.

  • Surface Finishing: Researching electroplating or anodizing processes that use harsh acidic baths.

  • Semiconductor Etching: Studying the electrochemical properties of silicon wafers in fluoride-based etchants.
