Study On Reduction Process Of Electrolyic Manganese Dioxide In Situ By Ultraviolet-Visible Absorption Spectroscopy, Li-Cai Zhu, Zhong-Zhi Yuan, Wei-Shan Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

The concentrationsof soluble Mn(Ⅲ) species,during the reduction ofelectrolytic MnO_(2) (EMD)in alkaline solution,have been monitored in situ by UV-visible spectroscopy. The concentration of Mn(Ⅲ) ion in solution changes with discharge time.The first electron discharge process of EMD can be described by three different steps: 1) the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions on the surface of EMD particles and the structural defect regions within the EMD,2) the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions in ramsdellite,3)the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions in pyrolusite. During the second electron discharge of EMD, the soluble Mn(Ⅲ) is reduced to Mn(Ⅱ) , then Mn(OH)_(2)and Mn_(3)O_(4)are formed.

Two Kinds Of Polaronsobservedin Polyanilinein Aqueous H_2so_4, Qin Zhou, Lin Zhuang, Jun-Tao Lu

Journal of Electrochemistry

Simultaneous electrochemistry electron spin resonance (ESR) conductance measurements were carried out on electropolymerized polyaniline and ESR spectra were obtained with high signal/noise ratio. Spectral simulation revealed that in the early stage of polymerization, there were two kinds of polarons. According to the potential dependence of the ESR line width and the corresponding conductivitychange of the polymer, the two polarons are thought to be in ordered and disordered domains, respectively. With increasing doping level, the two polarons underwent similar transfer from Curie spin to Pauli spin and both polarons were charge carriers in the conducting polymer.
