Quartz 1mm, Two-Way Light, Threaded Airtight Flow Cuvette, 350 ul, Molded 83, C012TS3
Description
The C012TS3 is a quartz threaded airtight flow cuvette with 1 mm path length and two-way light windows (two polished optical faces for standard UV-Vis absorbance geometry), holding 350 ul of sample. The cell measures 3.5 × 12.5 × 69 mm externally with an internal chamber of 1 × 10.5 × 67 mm. Dual M6 threaded ports with PTFE-lined screw caps provide leak-tight, pressure-tolerant connections for pump-driven flow systems. Fabricated using Molded 83 technique with monolithic fused-quartz construction — no adhesive joints, delivering >83% transmittance across the 260-3500 nm range. The quartz body is withstands all common laboratory solvents, concentrated acids, and bases. Avoid HF (hydrofluoric acid).

Applications
Why Two-Way Light Windows?
The two-way configuration provides two optically polished opposing faces for standard transmission-mode spectroscopy (UV-Vis, NIR). The remaining two walls are frosted (ground) to suppress internal reflections and stray light, improving baseline stability and measurement reproducibility. This is the most common geometry for absorbance-based flow analysis — compatible with virtually every single-beam and double-beam spectrophotometer on the market.
Why a Flow Cell?
Flow cells enable continuous, real-time spectroscopic monitoring without manual sample handling. Threaded airtight flow cells feature pressure-tolerant sealed connections (typically M6 threads with PTFE gaskets) that prevent leakage under pump pressure and exclude atmospheric oxygen. This design is essential for air-sensitive chemistry, anaerobic enzyme assays, and pressurized flow systems where standard open cells would leak or allow sample oxidation.
Why Molded 83 Fabrication?
The Molded 83 fabrication creates a monolithic fused-quartz cell from a single block — no adhesive joints, no bonding layers. This delivers >83% transmittance and complete resistance to all common laboratory solvents, concentrated acids, and bases (avoid HF). The seamless construction eliminates leakage risks and withstands repeated thermal cycling, making Molded 83 the premium choice for demanding flow applications.
