Quartz 10mm Long-Neck Cuvette With Transition Section, 3.5ml, Molded 83, Two-way Light, 1pc/ea, C102WS2
Description
The C102WS2 is a quartz long-neck cuvette with transition section with 10mm path length and two-way light optical configuration — two opposite vertical faces are polished to optical grade, forming the standard transmission geometry for UV-Vis absorbance measurements. With a 3.5ml internal volume (10 × 10 × 93 mm chamber), the cell is compatible with most commercial spectrophotometers. Fabricated using Molded 83 (>83% transmittance) — precision-molded from a single piece of quartz, eliminating adhesive joints entirely. The upper tube section is made of glass, while the lower optical body is precision-crafted from high-purity quartz. The visible bulbous transition section where the glass tube meets the quartz cuvette body creates a smooth, sealed junction that minimizes turbulence, reduces bubble trapping, and ensures reliable continuous flow operation.

Spectroscopy Applications
Why Two-Way Light?
Two-way light cuvettes have two opposite vertical faces polished to optical grade, forming the standard transmission geometry for UV-Vis absorbance measurements. The remaining two faces are frosted to minimize stray-light interference, providing clean baseline performance for quantitative spectrophotometry.
Why Molded 83?
Molded 83 uses monolithic fused-quartz construction — no adhesive joints — delivering >83% UV transmittance from 200–2500 nm. Because there are no glue seams, the cell withstands all common laboratory solvents, concentrated acids, and bases (avoid HF). This fabrication is ideal for demanding analytical workflows where chemical resistance, long service life, and maximum optical clarity are priorities.
- Rinse with a compatible solvent (e.g., ethanol or the measurement solvent) before first use to remove any residual particles.
- Do not use abrasive materials or brushes on the polished optical faces — wipe gently with lens tissue.
- Withstands all common laboratory solvents, concentrated acids, and bases. Avoid HF (hydrofluoric acid).
- Store in the original protective case to prevent scratches on the optical windows.
- For baseline correction, fill with your reference solvent, cap the cuvette, and run a blank before sample measurements.
