Specifications | Pricing and Options | Related Products | Resources
Platinum disc working electrodes have high resistance to oxidation in both air and acids, which is why they are widely used in standard electrochemistry cells for cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and investigation for the oxidation and reduction potentials of organic and inorganic semiconductors. Solution processed materials such as polymers in solution can be drop-cast onto the disc to form films, or alternatively the electrochemical cell can be set up to measure the properties of a material in solution.
The platinum disc electrode is both solvent and acid resistant working electrodes with a highly polished platinum core embedded in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) plastic bodies.
