I am trying to optimize an electrolysis study, with epoxy used as the "glue" to connect sample parts. The "glue" needs to permit electrical conduction through the sample, with minimal effect on the electrolysis process.
Thank you!
Dear George,
I am wondering if you have got any new information os solution for this problem? I am also looking for such electrically conductive adhesive and resistive for electrolysis process to use in glueing electrodes connection in electrochemical cell...
your feedback will be very much appreciated!
Dear Shadi,
I did not receive any information yet. I managed to come up with a solution:
- connected the parts with UV cured epoxy
- used Ag/conductive epoxy to form a jumper between the parts, and used a non-corrossive, non-conductive polymer (nail polish) over the epoxy jumper so that it does not electrolyze.
I think there is no conductive adhessives on the market, which are resistant to corrosion at same time. Probably a challenge for innovation? Your thoughts?
Alternatives to look at are graphite spray and conductive paint. The black colored ink used in screen printed PCB s is conductive, heat cured and chemical resistant.
