A REFERENCE ELECTRODE WITH A PORE MEMBRANE

摘要

A reference electrode (600) for being immersed in a bulk solution. The reference electrode comprises a reservoir (650) having reservoir walls defining a reservoir volume filled with an electrolyte; an electrode (620) in the reservoir, in contact with the electrolyte. The reservoir (650) of the reference electrode is closed except for the presence of at least one pore (651) in at least one of the reservoir walls, the at least one pore (651) being filled with electrolyte and being adapted for allowing ionic contact between the electrolyte in the reservoir and the bulk solution into which the reference electrode is to be immersed.
