Potentiostats

Several potentiostats are available for the electrochemical characterization of catalytic processes. These systems allow basic electrochemical analysis such as linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Our potentiostats are also available for the preparation of catalysts via electrodeposition and electrochemical (pulsed) anodization methods: Autolab PGSTAT302N, Multi Autolab M204, Biologics SP-240
