Description

SCE (Saturated Calomel Electrode) has been used as reference electrode instead of SHE (Standard Hydrogen Electrode) for the reference potential measurement of electrodes in electrochemical research.

Reference potential
Hg2Cl2 + 2e = 2Hg + 2Cl-
E0=241 mV vs RHEK (25°C)
∗ The reference potential is the measured value using RHEK reversible hydrogen electrode kit (Cat. No. 013373).
  • Holder material: Polymethylpentene, for the high chemical resistance is used.
  • Liquid junction: Ceramic tip
Catalog No. Description Electrolyte Purpose
013458 RE-2BP Calomel reference electrode saturated KCl Standard reference electrode

∗Keep the reference electrode in a cold dark place.
