The Hg/HgO is the best choice reference for alkaline solutions! The Mercury Oxide Reference Electrode is ideal for battery development, energy systems research and development, process control and general electrochemical studies. It is fast becoming an industry standard. It is very stable and reproducible. Everyone loves the Koslow MOE! Electrode potential is stable to plus or minus one millivolt and recovers quickly from small temperature excursions (about 125 degrees C). The standard electrode potential of the Mercury/Mercury Oxide half-cell is +0.098 volts vs. the normal hydrogen electrode (NHE) in basic solution. The standard concentration of the electrode filling solution is 20% (4.24 Molar) Potassium Hydroxide (KOH). The electrode can be ordered in any concentration of Potassium Hydroxide; this should be as close to that of the test medium as possible to minimize junction effects.* (NaOH) Sodium Hydroxide electrolyte is also available
Applications for the Mercury Oxide Electrode:
- Alkaline battery research
