Overview
The Corrtest CS310X is a single-channel potentiostat / galvanostat supporting three- and four-electrode cell configurations, with an integrated frequency response analyser for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Cyclic, linear-sweep, differential-pulse and square-wave voltammetry; potentiodynamic and potentiostatic polarisation; corrosion-rate determination by Tafel extrapolation and linear polarisation resistance (LPR); chronoamperometry, chronopotentiometry and galvanostatic charge–discharge are run from the standard software. Typical applications include corrosion behaviour of metals and alloys, coating and inhibitor performance, battery and supercapacitor electrodes, fuel-cell catalysts and electrochemical sensors. Low current resolution and a wide impedance frequency range provide data quality suited to both academic research and industrial corrosion and energy-storage testing.
