Platinum Coated Titanium Mesh Electrode with Holder – set of 10 pcs (redox.me)
The metal counter (auxiliary) electrode is provided in electrochemical cell as a current sink to shunt excess current away from the reference electrode. Platinum Coated Titanium Mesh Electrode is a cheap alternative to pure Platinum Electrodes like Platinum Gauze Electrode or Metal Wire Auxiliary Electrode. Platinum coating makes this counter electrode inert under the reaction conditions and provides catalytic properties. The electrode is installed in the Basic Sample Holder (1 pcs included in the set), which allows full immersion of the electrode in the electrolyte (wet Tantalum contact). It well fits aqueous and organic solvent electrolyte requirements. Electrode size is customizable.
Application note
The Platinum Coated Titanium Mesh Electrode is fully immersed in the ion-conducting solution as a counter electrode. An electric current is passed between the working electrode and the Platinum Coated Titanium Mesh Electrode for a certain amount of time. After the process, the electrode should be washed several times with ethanol and dried under the nitrogen flow. Store the electrode in a dedicated compartment to avoid scratching. Discoloration may indicate the degradation (dissolution) of the Platinum layer and oxidation of Titanium mesh.
This electrode is used mainly in systems where there is a high risk of its contamination by organic or inorganic deposit during the electrochemical reaction. It is also a cheap replacement for pure Platinum electrode in electrodeposition processes.

USB Potentiostat Galvanoplot
Read moreUSB Potentiostat Galvanoplot is a super small, low-cost and affordable device suitable for dedicated volume applications, which is optimized for screen-printed sensor and biosensor applications. It can be used in many other research areas and with other electrochemical sensors, for corrosion measurement, battery and super-capacitors or fuel cells.
It is capable of performing all common Amperometric and Voltammetric electrochemistry protocols (CA, LSV, CV, DPV, NPV, SVW, GAL) and can be used with three electrode (WE/RE/CE) and two electrode (WE/RE-CE) setups. Plug the device directly into an Android mobile device through OTG port for a true on-site analysis experience. It is possible to choose from two types of interfaces allowing direct insertion of the BVT SPE sensors or the use of 3 classical electrodes with 2 mm banana plugs (WE, RE, CE).

Hanging Platinum Drop Electrode
Read moreThe Hanging Platinum Drop Electrode (HPDE) is solid phase alanogy of HMDE.
The drop of liquid Pt at 2000 °C forms a drop of Pt. The surface of HPDE has nearly ideal surface which is impossible to obtain using polishing. HPDE has also spherical symmetry which enables mathematical treatment of its response.
The material is not toxic and it is chemically stable. The only disadvantage is HPDE cleaning, which can be, however, in some cases solved by carefull insertion of the electrode tip to the flame of an alcohol burner.
Thus HPDE can be used as reference electrode for complicated electrochemical studies, where it is necessary to distinguish the analytical signal from the signal generated by surface inhomogenities.Hanging platinum drop electrode (HPDE) is designed for measurements with thermostated cell TC4, TC5, TC6 and TC9.
