Details

This L-type glassy carbon electrode, developed for advanced electrochemical and electroanalytical applications, combines an imported glassy carbon inner core with a polytetrafluoroethylene outer jacket for robust chemical resistance and reliable performance. The electrode’s design allows the working surface to align parallel with the counter electrode, while the salt bridge enables close proximity of the reference electrode, enhancing measurement precision. Glassy carbon, a non-crystalline carbon material processed at high temperatures, offers excellent conductivity, low thermal expansion, high hardness, and a broad potential range from approximately -1 to 1 V relative to SCE. Its chemical stability and smooth surface make it suitable for use as an inert working electrode in anodic stripping, voltammetry, and as a substrate for chemically modified electrodes, supporting diverse research in energy materials and analytical chemistry.

Allow the reference electrode to approach the working electrode surface through the salt bridge

Glassy carbon, also known as glass carbon, is a non-crystalline carbon material with a glass-like appearance, which is obtained by slowly heating polyacrylonitrile resin or phenolic resin in an inert atmosphere at high temperature (up to 1800°C). It is a suitable electronic conductor material for electrodes and is widely used in table tennis blades.

The advantages of glassy carbon electrodes are good conductivity, high chemical stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, strong hardness, good airtightness, and a wide potential range (approximately -1 to 1V, relative to the saturated calomel electrode). They can be made into cylindrical, disc-shaped, and other electrode shapes. When used as substrates, they can also be made into mercury film glassy carbon electrodes and chemically modified electrodes. They are increasingly used in electrochemical experiments or electroanalytical chemistry.

Electrode characteristics: Glassy carbon electrodes are widely used working electrodes. They are good inert electrodes with good conductivity, high hardness, high smoothness, high hydrogen overpotential, wide polarization range, chemical stability, and can be directly used as inert electrodes for anodic dissolution, voltammetric determination of cathodes and redox ions, and as chemically modified electrodes.
