MAXIMUM ROTATION RATE: 3000 RPM -- Never exceed maximum rotation rate when working with rotating electrodes.
TEMPERATURE RANGE: 10°C - 80°C — Electrode damage may occur at temperatures beyond recommended range.
CHEMICAL INCOMPATIBILITIES: Concentrated Strong Acids — Damage or discoloration may occur.
Polishing PEEK-shrouded electrodes is best accomplished using a mechanical polisher. Other shroud materials are available upon request.
This series of RRDE tips may be used with the WaveVortex 10, MSR, and ASR electrode rotators.
PEEK has different wetting properties than PTFE. It is possible that some solvents (inks) may not stay on the surface of the disk electrode during casting. In these cases, users may consider other options made from PTFE, recognizing the temperature limitation for PTFE-based tips!
These RRDE tips feature a PEEK shroud which is designed for use over a wide range of temperatures (10°C to 80°C). This tough and chemically resistant shroud material is ideal for applications where the RRDE tip undergoes routine thermal cycling. These RRDE tips have a 15.0 mm OD shroud and are designed with the same thread connections as our standard 15.0 mm OD RDE tips, making it easy to switch between RDE and RRDE configurations using the same rotator shaft. Designed for experiments like fuel cell electrocatalyst screening, these RRDE tips provide the platform you need to study catalyst behavior over a range of temperatures.
Compatible shafts include
AFE6MB,
AFE6M, and
AFE5M for use with the
MSR rotator,
AFE6A and
AFE5A for use with the
ASR rotator, and
AFE5F for non-rotating applications. The E6R2 Series RRDE tips are also compatible with the
WaveVortex 10 Electrode Rotator.
