High quality reference electrode suitable for cyclic voltammetry electrochemistry cells
Overview | Specifications | Pricing and Options | Resources and Support
Aqueous Ag/AgCl reference electrodes and non-aqueous Ag/Ag+ reference electrodes are two of the most commonly used types for cyclic voltammetry, electrolysis and other electrochemical studies. Our low-price aqueous Ag/AgCl reference electrode make no compromises on quality and are sold sealed in a ceramic frit junction.
The aqueous Ag/AgCl reference electrode features a silver wire coated with silver chloride is used for direct contact with saturated potassium chloride, typically 3M concentration in distilled water (not included). Our Ag/AgCl reference electrode is simple, stable, and is capable of miniaturization.
Ossila provides site-wide large order discount offer, and you can now save up to 5% per electrode when you buy a pack of five and up to 10% per electrode when you buy a pack of ten. The Ag/AgCl reference electrode is also available in our amazing value electrochemical cell kits.
Please note that the aqueous Ag/AgCl reference electrode is ideal for neutral solutions, and may also suitable for weak acidic/basic environments, i.e. pH = 1 - 8. However, it is not recommended for prolonged exposure to strong basic or acidic solutions which can cause the silver wire to oxidize and the coated silver chloride layer to decompose !
