Electrode, Carbon Rod Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Electrode, Carbon Rod (Product Code: SLE/CH/123) is a cylindrical carbon electrode for electrolysis experiments, packed 50 to a pack so that a teacher can equip every bench in a practical class and still keep spares on the shelf. Carbon conducts electricity yet stays largely unreactive in the electrolytes used in school practicals, which is why carbon rods remain the usual inert electrode for studying what happens at the anode and cathode. The rods are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to secondary schools, junior colleges and teacher-training centres building up their school chemistry lab equipment in India.

Specifications

Typical Use

In a typical practical, two rods are mounted so that they stand parallel in a beaker of electrolyte without touching, then connected to a low-voltage DC source with crocodile-clip leads. Students watch for gas bubbles, colour changes or metal deposits at each rod – for example copper plating onto the cathode from copper(II) sulphate solution, or bubbles forming during the electrolysis of dilute acids and salt solutions. Because the carbon itself takes no part in most of these reactions, the observations can be linked directly to the ions present in the solution.

Keep the metal clips above the liquid so that only carbon touches the electrolyte, rinse the rods with distilled water after each run and let them dry before storage. An anode that gives off oxygen or chlorine slowly wears and roughens over repeated use; buying from a chemistry consumables supplier in India in packs of 50 means worn pieces can be swapped out without interrupting a practical session.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many electrodes come in one pack?
Fifty. Each pack holds 50 cylindrical carbon rods of 100 x 5 mm, so larger schools can order several packs to cover multiple sections.

Which experiments are these rods suited to?
Electrolysis of aqueous solutions where an inert electrode is needed, such as copper(II) sulphate, sodium chloride solution or dilute acids. The rods let students attribute every product they see to the electrolyte rather than to the electrode.

Can the rods be reused?
Yes, in most cases. Rinse and dry them after each practical; replace a rod once it becomes visibly pitted or crumbly, which happens first at anodes that release oxygen or chlorine.

Are holders, leads or a power supply included?
No – this listing covers the pack of 50 rods only. Holders, leads and electrolysis apparatus are available separately (see the related items above), and we can quote them together on request.

Is the grade or purity of the carbon specified?
The grade is not stated in this listing. If your syllabus or tender needs a particular grade, please ask through our contact page before ordering.

Do you supply schools in bulk or ship overseas?
Yes. We supply institutions across India and in international markets; include the product code SLE/CH/123, the number of packs and your delivery location in your enquiry so we can prepare an accurate quotation.
