E5 Series Rotating Disk Electrode, Glassy Carbon (GC), PTFE shroud
Part Number
AFE5T050GC
The E5 rotating disk electrode (RDE) tips are one of the most popular series of RDEs manufactured by Pine Research. Simply screw the tip onto the shaft and you are ready to use it for rotating disk experiments. The E5 series tips are versatile because you can have many tips, of different disk and shroud materials, that interface to one RDE shaft, such as the standard RDE shaft, compatible with the MSR Rotator family of instruments. The disk electrode is permanently-sealed within the insulating shroud material. These electrodes are precision-machined and can enjoy a long life if used and cared for properly. Pine Research offers many different disk materials and these RDEs are available in PTFE and PEEK shrouds.

Episode #138: Potential measured using Nernst equation, lithium batteries, AgCl reference electrodes
29:46
From my understanding, AgCl reference electrode represents equilibrium of AgCl to Ag and Cl-(aq). Using the solubility constant of AgCl, can you obtain the 0.2 V potential for Ag/AgCl using the Nernst equation?
1:19:01
For Ag/AgCl reference electrodes, does the electron from AgCl come from the silver wire? Why isn't Ag aqueous as well like the Cl-?
15:28
Can you give a broad idea on how to use RRDE for electrochemical water splitting or CO2 reduction?
1:15:02
Why do we have a frit in the standard Ag/AgCl reference electrode? And how do we know if the reference electrode is stable or not?
1:31:05
In charge/discharge analysis of a battery, why do some battery testers not allow measurements at negative potentials? Why is the lower potential range set to 0 V?
47:05
When we are measuring cyclic charge/discharge, our material is showing infinite charging with high electrolyte concentration, but not low concentration. Why might this be happening? Also, what is the iR drop in GCD tests?
1:00:33
The GCD curve at low current density shows an unusually prolonged discharge time going from low to high molarity. Why does this happen?
