The Cell Lab CR2016 Coin Cell Case with Kapton® Window is a specialised analytical coin cell housing designed for in-situ and operando X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterisation of electrode phase evolution during electrochemical cycling. Constructed from 304-grade stainless steel, this case integrates a Kapton® X-ray-transparent window, allowing researchers to observe structural changes in real time.
Ideal for battery material R&D, phase transition studies, and operando synchrotron experiments, this precision-engineered case enables direct correlation between electrochemical performance and structural dynamics. Each set includes polypropylene O-rings for secure sealing and electrolyte containment.
Kapton® Window for In-situ XRD Analysis
Enables real-time monitoring of electrode crystal structure and phase transitions during battery cycling.
Precision Stainless Steel Construction

Q1: What makes this case suitable for in-situ XRD?
The Kapton® window is X-ray transparent, enabling diffraction analysis while the cell is in operation.
Q2: Can this be used for synchrotron X-ray experiments?
Yes, the design and window thickness are compatible with synchrotron beamline XRD setups.
Q3: What battery chemistries can it support?
Suitable for Li-ion, Na-ion, Zn-ion, and other electrochemical systems using CR2016 coin cell geometry.
Q4: How should it be sealed?
Use the included PP O-ring to ensure electrolyte containment during cycling.
Q5: Can the window material be customised?
Yes. Alternative X-ray-transparent materials such as beryllium or thin quartz windows are available upon request.
