reference electrode

Our Ag/Ag+ pseudo-reference electrode is suitable for most organic solvents, while our commercially available reference electrodes are "no-leak" and suitable for many non-aqueous applications. Our platinum auxiliary electrode is inert and the most commonly used material, while other less expensive materials such as carbon and copper can also be used. Trust us to provide you with the most reliable and accurate reference electrode solutions.

Applications of Reference Electrode

• Used to measure the potential difference between the working electrode and the solution, making it possible to determine the redox potential of the analyte solution.
• Used as a standard for the calibration of other electrodes.
• Used in electrochemical experiments involving non-aqueous solutions to determine the redox potential of the solution.
• Used in potentiometric titrations to determine the endpoint of the titration.
• Used in various electroanalytical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and impedance spectroscopy to study electrochemical reactions.
• Used in the electroplating industry to measure the potential difference between the anode and the cathode in order to control the thickness and quality of the plating.
• Used in the corrosion industry to measure the potential difference between the metal surface and the solution in order to determine the corrosion rate and to evaluate the effectiveness of corrosion inhibitors.
• Used in the field of bioelectrochemistry to study the redox properties of biological molecules and their interactions with other molecules.
