Product Overview

Polylab Leclanché Cell Pots are classic lab-grade containers designed for assembling Leclanché cells—one of the earliest and most widely studied primary batteries. These pots are made from high-quality porous ceramic for traditional versions or durable polypropylene (PP) for safer, reusable alternatives. Both versions deliver excellent chemical resistance, making them suitable for use with common electrolytes like ammonium chloride and manganese dioxide.

Each Leclanché Cell Pot features a cylindrical open-top design with porous walls that allow controlled ion exchange while keeping the electrolyte contained within the inner compartment. This makes them perfect for demonstrating principles of electrochemical reactions, battery construction, and current flow in school and college laboratories.

The PP version is lightweight, impact-resistant, and shatterproof, offering a practical and safer alternative to fragile ceramic or glass pots. It is also autoclavable, making sterilization simple for repeated use in educational and research settings.

Pair your Leclanché Cell Pot with Polylab Electrodes & Accessories for complete electrochemical cell setups. To support your curriculum or lab work, explore our broader Electrochemistry Labware collection, including electrode holders, voltameters, and demonstration kits.
