{"product_id":"coczabtc","title":"Organic-Compatible Zinc-Air Battery Testing Cell, COCZABTC","description":"\u003cp\u003eTesting zinc-air batteries with organic electrolytes (non-aqueous or hybrid systems) requires specific cell materials that resist swelling or degradation from solvents like Dimethylformamide (DMF), Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC), or Acetonitrile. Standard alkaline-grade plastic cells (often made of Acrylic\/PMMA) may fail when exposed to these solvents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor organic-compatible testing, you should prioritize cells constructed from the following inert materials: (1) \u003cstrong\u003ePTFE (Teflon)\u003c\/strong\u003e: The gold standard for chemical universal compatibility. It resists almost all organic solvents and high temperatures. (2) \u003cstrong\u003ePEEK\u003c\/strong\u003e: Excellent mechanical strength and high resistance to organic chemicals. (3) \u003cstrong\u003e316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/strong\u003e: Typically used for the structural body and current collectors. For maximum protection against corrosion in some organic salts, an optional Gold (Au) coating is often applied to internal surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen selecting or building your kit, verify these organic-compatible components: (1) \u003cstrong\u003eO-Rings\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ensure they are Viton (FKM) or Chemraz\/Kalrez (FFKM). Standard Nitrile (Buna-N) O-rings will swell and leak in most organic electrolytes. (2) \u003cstrong\u003eGas Diffusion Layer (GDL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Since organic electrolytes have different surface tensions than KOH, you may need a GDL with a specific hydrophobic\/hydrophilic balance to prevent \"flooding\" of the air electrode. (3) \u003cstrong\u003eSealing\u003c\/strong\u003e: For non-aqueous testing, the cell must be compatible with glovebox assembly to prevent moisture from entering, which can trigger the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) even in organic media.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 601.226px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePart Number\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCOCZABTC (C-OCZABTC)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 184.8px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 184.8px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eStructure\/Components\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 184.8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd Plate\/Current Collector: SS316L (Ti can be supplied upon request)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrode: Nickel felt, foam, or carbon paper\/felt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrode Frame: PTFE (0.5 mm thickness)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealing Gasket: Silicone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubing Connection: Barbed hose fitting (tubing I.D. 2mm, O.D 4mm)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 126px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 126px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCell Sizes\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 126px;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefault photo-effective area is 2.0 cm * 2.0 cm (4.0 cm2) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOther types of active areas, such as (1.0cm * 1.0cm), (3cm * 3cm), and (5cm * 5cm) are also available upon request.  \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCell size: W60×H70 mm \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 131.438px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 131.438px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAssembling Diagram\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 131.438px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/COCZABTC_02_160x160.png?v=1772991218\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 84.188px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 84.188px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFlow Pump (\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(247, 8, 8);\"\u003eOptional\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 84.188px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe flow pump can be supplied upon request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e      \u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/CMEAFESFC_flow_pump_160x160.png?v=1772439579\" width=\"96\" height=\"78\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.0935%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.7266%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003eThe cell components should be thoroughly cleaned and dried after use. \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReferences\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41597-020-0539-y\"\u003eA.
