Sample Holder 25 mm x 25 mm (redox.me)
The sample holder (known also as flat specimen holder) is used for holding flat, circular or square/rectangular samples. It enables contacting the sample from the front (e.g. ITO/FTO glass, Monolayer Graphene on SiC, or Boron-Doped Diamond thin film on various substrates) and from the back (e.g. metal specimen, Glassy Carbon plate, Boron-Doped Diamond plate). The default nominal aperture is 1cm2, but other value can be provided on request. The large electrical contact with Tantalum (formerly Copper) foil surface (not being in contact with an electrolyte) ensures optimal current collection by minimizing electrical resistance and unifying current distribution. The rod with electrical connection has a diameter of 6 mm, which makes the sample holder compatible with our voltammetry cells and jacketed cells, as long as it fits in. We may also provide an adapter to install this sample holder in openings larger than 6 mm dia.
The sample holder elements are constructed with materials that are inert to the electrochemical system (PEEK, Fluorocarbons). It well fits aqueous (FKM/EPDM O-Rings) and organic solvent (FFKM O-Rings) electrolyte requirements. The construction is well sealed which prevents the electrolyte to leak inside.
Application note
The sample holder is used largely for corrosion studies. It can be installed in a beaker type cell as well as in testing environments such as open water reservoirs, cans, tanks etc. It can also be used wherever it is necessary to make an electrode using a thin layer of an active material deposited on a flat substrate (conducting or insulating).

Modular PEM Electrolyzer Test Station up to 3 kW (redox.me)
Read moreThe Modular PEM Electrolyzer Test Station is a versatile and flexible solution designed for the testing and evaluation of proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers. Unlike fully automated, integrated systems, this platform features modular components that can be easily swapped by the end user, allowing for customized setups and adaptability to different testing needs. The platform is engineered to provide precise control and measurement of electrochemical performance while offering the convenience of easily replaceable parts.
This design enables users to test various configurations, integrate new modules, and adapt the system to specific research or development objectives without the need for specialized equipment or extensive downtime. Ideal for research labs and development environments, this platform supports the advancement of PEM electrolyzer technology through hands-on, flexible experimentation.
Application note:
Ideal for researchers investigating new PEM materials, flow field designs, and cell configurations. The system is an excellent tool for academic institutions and training centers, providing students and researchers with a hands-on understanding of PEM electrolysis processes and system operation. PEM Electrolyzer Test Station with power up to 3 kW is suitable for testing lab-scale or small to medium-scale electrolyzers, typically up to 60 cm². If the power requirements for a given electrolyzer are less than 2 A/cm², larger electrolyzers up to 100 cm² or more can also be tested.
The entire system, as well as its component parts, are CE certified, which signifies that a product meets European Union (EU) health, safety, and environmental protection standards. Other certificates are available upon request.The Modular PEM Electrolyzer Test Station is continuously being improved, so the photos may not fully represent the current version of the device.

Raman Electrochemical Flow Cell, active area: 3.5 cm2, volume: 4.5 mL (redox.me)
Read moreThis cell combines two classical analytical techniques such as electrochemistry and Raman spectroscopy, to obtain in-situ chemical information about the reactions taking place during an electrochemical experiment. It consists mainly of three elements: (i) sample holder with Tantalum (formerly Copper) foil serving as an electric contact to working electrode surface, (ii) chamber in which reference and counter electrodes are installed together with electrolyte inlet and outlet and (iii) lid which seals the cell and holds the Sapphire window. The sample consisting of a thin film of electrochemically active material deposited on a rigid or flexible substrate (working electrode) is loaded from the bottom via magnetic or screw mount. The counter or/and reference electrodes are mounted in a top casing (either 2-, or 3-electrode setup. The oval counter electrode made of e.g. Platinum wire assures uniform distribution of the field lines along the path to working electrode. During an experiment Raman laser is focused onto the surface of a thin film working electrode through a transparent Sapphire window and thin layer of electrolyte (total optical path of 3.25 mm). The electrolyte thickness of 2.25 mm ensures free diffusion of ions (e.g. protons) and its counter ions.
The electrode adapter for installing 6 mm dia. electrodes inside Raman ECFC is available here. It enables using disk electrode, plug with clip or any other rod-shape electrode (e.g. graphite rod) or current collector (e.g. metal mesh, graphite coated metal mesh, metal foil, graphite coated metal foil, metal foam, carbon woven and non-woven fabrics, carbon paper, etc.) as working electrode instead of a flat electrode in default Raman ECFC configuration.
The screw mount variant of Raman ECFC can be converted into GDE Raman ECFC by using Gas Compartment. This conversion allows installation of Gas Diffusion Electrodes as working electrode.
The cell elements are constructed with materials that are inert to the sample (PEEK, Fluorocarbons). It well fits aqueous (FKM O-Rings) and organic solvent (FFKM O-Rings) electrolyte requirements. The construction is gas-tight and can be used when the removal and exclusion of contaminants such as oxygen and water is required by bubbling of an inert gas through the electrolyte (in an external reservoir).
Application note:
This cell can be used to track kinetic phenomena such as the near-surface proton concentration changes during oxidation and reduction reaction at working electrode. It can be also used to identify materials such as carbon, metal oxides, polymers and electrolytes, and to determine their structure and distribution. Various metals are suitable for this cell as auxiliary electrode including Platinum, Gold and Silver.Specification:
