Product Description

The PAT-Cell-Gas is a test cell dedicated for in-situ gas analysis of battery materials in a flowthrough set-up. For this purpose, the test cell features a gas inlet and outlet with self-locking couplings that are compatible with 1/16″ Swagelok tube fittings. In addition, options that include built-in pressure and temperature sensors or a septum port for gas sampling with a syringe are available.

The cell stack is placed on top of a perforated or grooved current collector (flow field), which is to be purged with a gentle stream of gas. The lower electrode must be gas permeable, so as to allow for gas exchange with the feed gas. Typically, the cell is used with gas diffusion electrodes (such as for Li-air) or with Li-ion battery electrodes with a meshed current collector. The special design minimizes backmixing of the gas from the flowfield back into the headspace, and is thus very suitable for time-resolved gas analysis with a mass spectrometer, for example.

The PAT-Cell-Gas variants with pressure sensor are designed for use with EL-CELL potentiostats to take full advantage of all sensor functions.

Working Modes

Mode 1: Air mode

The lower plunger, equipped with a perforated plate, enables the electrochemical characterization of gas diffusion electrodes used, for instance, in Li-air batteries. The lower electrode is contacted by and “breathes” through the perforated stainless steel current collector supporting it. During operation, the pressure gradient building up between the cell headroom and the gas volume below the perforated plate effectively prevents back-mixing. The relatively large volume below the perforated is at the expense of time resolution, but makes this solution robust against clogging of the gas path.

PAT-Cell-Gas Air mode

Mode 2: OEMS mode

The PAT-Core setup, utilizing a lower plunger with a flow field, provides nearly perfect plug-flow of the purge gas, which is essential for quantitative, time-resolved analysis. Gases evolved or consumed at the working electrode can be analyzed through the composition change of the gas stream that is passed along the spiral-type flow field below the working electrode. The composition of the outgoing gas can be analyzed, for example, by mass spectrometry. The pressure gradient between the cell headroom and the spiral-type flow field effectively prevents back mixing. This, combined with the tiny gas volume of the flow field, ensures the best possible time resolution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cell is right? PAT-Cell-Press or PAT-Cell-Gas?
PAT-Cell-PressPAT-Cell-Gas (P, S, SP)
Cell is dedicated to:The quantitative (cumulative) measurement of the gas evolved / consumed during the electrochemical cycle by measurement of the gas pressureTime resolved analysis of the gas evolved / consumed during the electrochemical cycle in combination with a mass spectrometer and controlled gas supply
Preferred operation mode:Pressurized cell without gas flowFlow-through with gas analysis at outlet and mass flow controller at the inlet
Plug flow: not availableAlmost perfect when using the lower plunger with flow field; significant back-mixing when using the lower plunger with perforated plate
Applicable to:• Aprotic chemistries such as Li-ion, Li-air, super cap
• Some aqueous chemistries may work, but compatibility must be checked by the user 		• Aprotic chemistries such as Li-ion, Li-air, super cap
• Some aqueous chemistries may work, but compatibility must be checked by the user
Upper electrode:Any compatible electrode, either self-standing or with metal foil current collector; standard upper plunger or perforated upper plunger Any compatible electrode; often Li metal or LFP are used here as a Li ion source; preferably there is no gas evolution or consumption at this electrode
Lower electrode:Any compatible electrode, either self-standing or with metal foil current collector; standard lower plunger or perforated lower plungerThe lower electrode is seated on a plunger with flow field and must therefore be gas permeable, either self-standing or on current collector mesh. The gas evolution / consumption at the lower electrode is subject of the measurement.
How can I identify whether my PAT-Cell is suitable for use with metal seals?

Many test cells in the PAT series are already supplied with a metal seal lid (Item name: Screw cap insulated (PAT)) as standard. If you still have an older cell, you can use the following features to determine whether the existing cover is suitable for metal seals.

The compatible cell lid for use with metal seals has two holes on the top and a white or black inset made of PPS in the lid, which serves as insulation.
As the two holes can also be found on older cell lids without insulation, you should always check whether the inset is present. Non-compatible cell lids have no inset at all.

How to recognize the insulated screw cap for the PAT-Cell

Do you need a PAT-Press-Box to operate the PAT-Cell-Gas II?

The PAT-Cell-Gas II transmits its signal data via the digital I²C bus and therefore does not require any additional devices. Please note that an EL-Cell potentiostat is required to read out the pressure and temperature sensor signals.

Frequently asked questions

How can I identify whether my PAT-Cell is suitable for use with metal seals?

The compatible cell lid for metal seals (Item name: Screw cap insulated (PAT)) can be recognized by two features. It has two holes on the top and a white or black inset made of PPS in the lid, which serves as insulation.
As the two holes can also be found on older cell lids without insulation, you should always check whether the inset is present. Non-compatible cell lids have no inset at all.

How to recognize the insulated screw cap for the PAT-Cell

Do you always need a PAT-Press-Box to operate the PAT-Cell-Press?

The PAT-Press-Box is required to read and record the analog pressure signal of a PAT series test cell.

It is required in the following docking stations:

The following devices provide the necessary functions themselves, therefore no PAT-Press-Box is required:
