Thermo Scientific Trace 1300 – Gas Chromatography

Thermo Scientific Trace 1300 – Gas Chromatography

One of the main techniques we use to characterize reaction products is Gas Chromatography (GC). Our Thermo Scientific Trace 1300 holds two columns simultaneously. The first is a standard polar column attached to a standard split/splitless injection port and a flame ionization detector (FID). We use this column to separate and quantify the organic products […]

Pine WaveDriver Potentiostat – Electrochemical Studies

Pine WaveDriver Potentiostat – Electrochemical Studies

Our group uses this Pine WaveDriver potentiostat for our electrochemical studies. This potentiostat is capable of performing cyclic voltammetry (CV), bulk electrolysis (BE), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), which we use to determine the oxidation and reduction potentials of the catalysts we design in the lab, as well as those of the substrates we are […]

PerkinElmer Lambda 465 – Reaction Kinetics

PerkinElmer Lambda 465 – Reaction Kinetics

Our lab uses this PerkinElmer Lambda 465 to study the reaction kinetics of our catalysts in solution. The sample chamber is surrounded by a water jacket attached to a circulating heating/refrigerating bath, which allows us to control and adjust the reaction temperature. This instrument uses a photodiode array, which allows it to collect full UV-Visible […]
