The only system for studying electrochemical processes at the nanoscale at temperatures ranging from -50 °C to 300 °C.
Triton AX is the newest member of the Protochips in situ TEM portfolio and offers an unprecedented temperature range of -50 °C to 300 °C to be applied to liquid electrochemical experiments. This huge technological advancement provides a platform for studying batteries, electrocatalysts, corrosion, and nanomaterial synthesis at relevant or extreme temperatures to propel innovation.
With Triton AX, you can:
- Create realistic and relevant environmental conditions (think cold weather climates or high operating temperatures)
- Speed up or slow down reaction kinetics that are too slow or too fast to study in the TEM
- Mitigate beam damage (using cooling technology)

Triton AX Application Example: Evaluating the kinetics of electroplating at hot and cold temperatures
This videos shows copper plating and stripping on the platinum working electrode of our E-chips at two different temperatures (cold: 5°C and hot: 98 °C) highlighting the possibility of performing electrochemical experiments at a wide range of temperatures [no other in situ TEM holder offers liquid cooling with simultaneous electrochemistry].
With a system like this researcher can study and improve battery performance at extreme temperatures like cold climates, electrocatalytic operation at relevant elevated temperatures, corrosion-resistance at varying temperatures and more.
