The Institute has a number of well-equipped laboratories, which allows to operate at various levels of the process of research and technological innovation.
The “Facilities” section of the website offers a complete and detailed tour of these valuable resources.
In addition to this, ICMATE wants to propose a journey that, from week to week, will lead to the discovery of its vast technology park.
This week's featured laboratories
Lab. of electrochemical preparation and electroanalytical chemistry (Padua)
-
REFERENTS:
NICOLA COMISSO
-
UNIT:
PADUA
In this facility, there are:
-
Galvanostat/Potentiostat (Autolab, EG&G): electrochemical instruments for step potential and sweep potential techniques;
-
Electrochemical flow cell apparatus (Dropsens, Electrocell) with exchangeable electrodes and a range of working electrode volumes from µL to mL. Cells can be coupled with a peristaltic pump or with syringe pumps;
-
Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance (EQCM): can be used to measure deposition or electrodeposition rate for thin film or nano/micro-structured materials;
- Planetary ball mills (FRITSCH) for preparation of inorganic powders and metal alloys.
-
