Electrochemical characterisation analysis laboratory
You want to carry out an electrochemical characterisation analysis of your materials
What is electrochemical characterisation?
Electrochemical characterisation is an essential analytical method for assessing the electrical and chemical properties of materials. This technique is used to examine the response of a material when subjected to an electrochemical environment. It encompasses several techniques, such as cyclic voltametry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarisation curves … Electrochemical characterisation can be applied to a wide range of industrial sectors, from aeronautics and cosmetics to energy and medical devices.
Rapid and accurate analysis of metallic corrosion by electrochemical characterisation
Electrolyte medium determined according to the intended application :
The most suitable electrolyte medium selected for your application, whether in marine, industrial or medical environments. This tailor-made approach ensures relevant and reliable results.
Obtain corrosion current density values for a metal in less than an hour
Shift in corrosion potential towards positive values (surface ennoblement) :
Our electrochemical characterisation analyses also reveal a shift in the corrosion potential towards positive values, indicating surface ennoblement. This phenomenon is a clear sign of an improvement in the material’s corrosion resistance.
Information provided by the electrochemical characterisation analysis
Electrochemical methods provide information on the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the insertion or absorption reactions that occur during electrochemical operation. These techniques provide access to a multitude of parameters, such as working potential, equilibrium potential, entropy variation, specific capacitance, electrochemical reversibility, diffusion kinetics (Li, Na, H), ionic conductivity, cycling lifetime, etc.
