FlowSys is a microfluidic system that precisely controls the flow and pressures of liquids and gases in an experiment.
Microfluidic Flows: FlowSys delivers a stable microflow (1-60 μL/sec) of electrolyte directly over the electrode surface. This precise flow maximizes the interaction between the electrolyte and the electrode, leading to superior experimental results.
Tunable Saturation: FlowSys ensures tunable saturation of reactant gases with the electrolyte solution. This critical feature prevents bubble formation, which can disrupt mass spectrometry analysis.
Long-Term Operation: FlowSys is engineered for experiment times lasting up to 55 hours (depending on electrolyte reservoir volume). Automatized experimentation minimizes downtime and maximizes research productivity.
Scalable for Diverse Needs: FlowSys can provide the feed of reactant gases and electrolyte to various electrochemical laminar flow cell setups. It compatible with stack cells, TEM liquid cells & spectroscopy cells) using standard capillary tube plug-in connectors.
The PoGASi technology simultaneously separates & delivers both gas and liquid analytes to the mass spectrometer for unparalleled compositional analysis.
Patented Power: LIQUIDLOOP's patented design utilizes a differential pumping system for exceptionalanalytical performance. PoGASi allows for the simultaneous feed of molecules to the mass spectrometer, avoiding the segregation effect due to molecular weight differences.
Precision Vacuum Control: PoGASi maintains stable and sample-specific vacuum pressures at the interface to acquire the reaction products at the ppm scale. This ensures optimal conditions for accurate analysis at the mass spectrometer.
Independent Analysis Pathways: PoGASi has separate pathways for gaseous and volatile liquid compounds after separation. This powerful feature allows you to selectively shut down either analyte type, leading to enhanced qualitative and quantitative analysis.
Headspace Analysis for Batteries: This is an optional hardware & software add on to PoGASi for the analysis of the cell headspace for battery research. Individual inlet and outlet values can be actuated, and the outlet gas can be monitored via mass flow control.
LIQUIDLOOP's Electrochemical Capillary Cell is designed to handle a wide range of electrochemical reactions within your LIQUIDLOOP DEMS system, offering continuous monitoring of a three-electrode set-up.
Low-Resistance Cell Design: The Capillary Cell accommodates large electrodes which allows for observing reactions with high current densities (such as CO2RR, OER or oxidation of organics).
WE Droplet Setup: The cell can be used to form a droplet of electrolyte on the catalyst surface for low volume experimentation. This unique design allows for studies with isotope-labelled liquids.
•Electrode Flexibility: The Capillary Cell provides the freedom to use a variety of electrodes and sample holders. It is compatible with various working electrode geometries, including typical RDE (rotating disk electrode) systems.
Photoelectrochemistry Studies: The window design for the cell allows for the use of monochromatic laser light to induce photoelectrochemical reactions.
Precise Positioning: LIQUIDLOOP's microcamera allows for accurate capillary positioning to ensure exceptional reproducibility in your experiments.
The specialized Dual Thin Layer Cell is ideal for performing experiments where 100% collection efficiency is required (ie. for Faradaic efficiency determination).
100% Product Collection: This cell achieves total product collection, making it ideal for precise Faradaic efficiency determinations, as well as electrochemical gaseous molecules stripping process detection.
Ideal for Low-Current Reactions: The thin-layer cell is optimal for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and for other low current regimes (up to 1 mA).
FlowSys Compatibility: The electrolyte flow within the cell is carefully controlled using FlowSys.
Specifications: The cell is made using chemically resistant materials throughout, including PCTFE. Contact sealing produced via FKM o-ringsand PTFE gaskets. The exposed WE has a maximum diameter of 7 mm.
The Saturator is a modular add-on unit to FlowSys, which performs the precise saturation of a chosen gas into the liquid electrolyte.
Modular Design: Easy to place in a fumehood if studying flammable (H2, CH4, O2), toxic (CO) or corrosive gases.
Tunable Saturation: The partial pressure of the reactant gas to be saturated in the electrolyte can be finely tuned.
Gas Stabilization: By being able to finely tune saturation, gas fluctuations and bubble formation can be minimized. This allows for long-term mass transport conditions and for optimal mass spectrometry results.
Isotopic Studies: Low volume isotope gas saturation possible for isotopic labelled studies.
The twin extractor, is a core component behind LIQUIDLOOP’s patented technology, designed to extract products from the liquid matrix via a porous membrane.
Electrolyte Flexibility: The extractor is compatible for a range of electrolyte systems (ie. aqueous and non-aqueous/polymer- based electrolytes, ionic liquids or corrosive gases (such as Cl2)).
Simultaneous Separation: The separation process occurs simultaneously for both gas and volatile liquid phase.
Easily Adaptable: Easily exchangeable by the user for different solvent types or experimental setups.
