{"product_id":"cfectc","title":"Flat Electrochemical Corrosion Test Cell (250 mL), CFECTC","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Flat Electrochemical Corrosion Test Cell is a specialized reactor designed for testing flat specimens—such as sheet metal, coated plates, or thin films—without the need for complex machining. By clamping the sample against an O-ring, it defines a precise active surface area, which is critical for calculating corrosion rates (mm\/year) and current density (mA\/cm2). Unlike standard immersion cells, the flat cell protects the edges of the sample, preventing \"edge effects\" where corrosion often starts prematurely on cut surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cell typically features a vertical or horizontal \"barrel\" design made of inert materials. (1) \u003cstrong\u003eSample (Working Electrode)\u003c\/strong\u003e: A flat metal sheet or coupon. It is pressed against the cell body via a heavy-duty mechanical clamp. (2) \u003cstrong\u003eAperture \u0026amp; O-ring\u003c\/strong\u003e: This is the most critical part. The O-ring creates a liquid-tight seal that exposes only a known area (typically 1 cm2 or 10 cm2) to the electrolyte. (3) \u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Collector Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e: A conductive plate (often Copper or Stainless Steel) sits behind the sample to provide electrical contact to the potentiostat. (4) \u003cstrong\u003eReference \u0026amp; Counter Electrodes\u003c\/strong\u003e: The Reference Electrode is usually placed in a Luggin Capillary that terminates near the sample surface to minimize voltage drops. The Counter Electrode (often a Platinum mesh or Graphite rod) is positioned parallel to the sample to ensure a uniform current field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cem\u003ePart Number\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCFECTC (C-FECTC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cem\u003eCell Features\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe whole electrochemical cell body is made of glass material with high B content\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA hole with 1 cm2 is designed on the plate side for hosting the working electrode.
