Material & Engineering Overview
Reproducible half-cell and full-cell electrochemical cycling starts with burr-free, corrosion-resistant coin-cell hardware. We supply complete CR2032, CR2025, and CR2016 kits in both standard 304 stainless steel and molybdenum-bearing 316L stainless steel (essential for corrosive LiPF6, LiFSI, and halide electrolytes).
For high-voltage cathodes (>4.3 V vs. Li/Li⁺ such as LNMO, rich-NMC, and LiCoPO4) where stainless steel anodically corrodes, we stock aluminum-clad CR2032 positive cans and TiN-coated cases, plus pre-perforated optical/X-ray in-situ window cases.

Primary Research & Industrial Applications
- Lithium-ion, sodium-ion, potassium-ion, and Li-S / solid-state half-cell and full-cell cycling
- High-voltage (>4.3–5.0 V) cathode testing using Al-clad positive CR2032 cans
- In-situ XRD, Raman, and optical microscopy operando battery cells (Kapton/Be/quartz window coin cases)
- Reusable PEEK/PTFE 2-electrode and 3-electrode Swagelok-type split test cells

Technical & Procurement FAQ
Why should I use 316L stainless steel or Al-clad CR2032 cases instead of 304 SS?
304 SS corrodes above ~4.2 V in LiPF6 electrolytes, causing parasitic current and falsely low Coulombic efficiency; 316L resists general corrosion up to ~4.35 V, and Al-clad cans passivate cleanly up to 5.0 V.
What is included in a complete CR2032 coin-cell kit?
Each set includes 1 positive case, 1 negative cap with pre-installed polypropylene (PP) sealing gasket, 1 stainless steel spacer disc (Ø15.8×0.5 or 1.0 mm), and 1 wave spring.
Can I order cases with pre-punched center holes for in-situ XRD or Raman?
Yes. Pre-perforated Ø 3–10 mm window CR2032 cases and reusable split cells with quartz/Kapton windows are available.
