PEEK or 316 stainless steel
PEEK cell: 13 L volume; 10 mm (0.394 in) path length
Stainless steel cell: 13 L volume; 10 mm (0.394 in) path length
PEEK cell: 2 MPa (300 psi)
Stainless steel cell: 3 MPa (500 psi)
•
Do not use bases stronger than 0.1 M; these solutions will
etch the fused silica windows of the flow cell.
•
Do not use normal phase or chlorinated solvents with the
PEEK flow cell; these solutions will damage the cell.
•
Do not use low pH solutions with the stainless steel flow
cell; these solutions may cause corrosion, contamination,
and metal leaching.
