An Electrochemical Flow Cell for Multifunctional Operando Characterization is a high-level research reactor designed to allow multiple analytical probes (e.g., X-rays, Lasers, and Mass Spectrometry) to observe a catalyst or battery material while it is actively functioning under flow conditions. Unlike standard "static" operando cells, these flow-based systems allow for high current densities, better mass transport, and real-time product analysis, making them essential for studying $CO_2$ reduction (CO2RR), Water Splitting (OER/HER), and Redox Flow Batteries.

Modern operando flow cells are designed to be "multimodal," meaning they can accommodate different windows and geometries for various techniques simultaneously or interchangeably: (1) X-ray Methods (XRD & XAS): Require thin Kapton or Mylar windows and often use "Grazing Incidence" (GI) geometry to probe only the top few nanometers of the catalyst surface. (2) Vibrational Spectroscopy (Raman & IR): Use Quartz (Raman) or ZnSe/CaF₂ (FTIR) windows. Surface-enhanced techniques (SERS/SEIRAS) are often integrated by using a roughened gold or silver underlayer.

Part Number

CMOCEFC (C-MOCEFC)

Cell Features
  •  The cell is made of PEEK and Ti materials
  • Electrolyte will flow into the cell chamber through the reference electrode and then contacting with the working electrode, finally it flow out from the cell chamber through counter electrode for a loop
  • Standard version and gas-diffusion version are available for working electrode part. 
  • Pt wire and Ag/AgCl are included as counter and reference electrode, respectively. 
  • The multifunctional tests are realized by changing the observation windows (Recommended: Raman: quartz; XRD: Be; XAS: Kapton). The sapphire window is included.
  • Cell chamber size: 15*15*1.2mm
Cell Types
  • Regular Type
  • Gas-Diffusion Electrode (GDE) Type

             

      Note The cell components should be thoroughly cleaned and dried after use.
