This electrochemical system is suitable for advanced experiments to determine rates of electrochemical reactions and effects of hydrodynamic conditions (controlled via the rate of electrode rotation) on them. Formation of redox-active intermediates can be determined using the rotating ring-disc electrode (RRDE) system, with the ring and disc controlled by separate potentiostats. A gold RRDE electrode is available for that purpose. Available disc electrodes (with a ring) include glass carbon, platinum, nickel and others.
This older unit is for voltammetric and other electrochemical measurements. It is enabled to carry out rotating disc measurements with various electrode materials. It is not suitable to RRDE experiments.
