Journal of Electrochemistry

The processes of adsorption and oxidation of methanol on Pt, Pt/Sb ad and Pt/S ad electrodes were studied by using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical quartz crystal microba_lance (EQCM). The results demonstrated that the oxidation of methanol depends strongly on oxidation states of electrode surface. Sb adatoms on Pt surface can adsorb oxygen at relatively low potentials, and exhibit catalytic effects for methanol oxidation. In contrast to Pt electrodes, the oxidation peak potential of methanol in this case negatively shifted to about 130 mV. In a contrary, the oxidation of S adatoms consumes oxygen species of Pt electrode surface. As a …

Uneven Anodic Dissolution Of Iron Induced By Magnetic Field, Zhan-Peng Lv, De-Lun Huang, Wu Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The effects of magnetic field on anodic dissolution of iron in sulfuric acid were studied by potentiostatic polarization measurements and scanning electron microscopy observation. Magnetic field would reduce the surface film coverage fraction on electrode by enhancing the film dissolution process, thus made the electrode prone to active dissolution state. With increasing the applied potentials, magnetic field would accelerate the anodic dissolution, change the oscillation state or passive state to active dissolution state, or maintain the passive state, respectively. Potential for onset of passivation moved in the noble direction when magnetic field was imposed. At specific anodic potentials, denting occurred …

Journal of Electrochemistry

A novel Two_way Stripping Voltammetry method for simultaneous determination of Au 3+ and Cu 2+ was reported in this paper. Because of the strongly electrostatic attraction of carbon paste electrode towards Au(Ⅲ) ion at positive potential and the biochemical contribution of Gram_positive bacteria strain DO1, the ion can be determined by cathodic stripping voltammetry. At the same time, Cu(Ⅱ) is reduced readily under the catalysis of ultra_fine gold particles, thereafter it can be determined by anode stripping voltammetry. There is no interference between the determination of Au 3+ and Cu 2+ . A perfect liner relationship between the concentrations of …

The Dissolution Of Perfluorinated Proton Exchange Membrane And The Analysis On The Performance Of The Recast Membrane, Hong-Feng Xu, Xi-Qiang Yan, Xuan Li, Li Wan

Journal of Electrochemistry

Perfluorinated resin solution is useful in proton exchange membrane fuel cell. At 270~280 ℃ and protected with N 2, the proton exchange membrane(Nafion 115) was dissolved in the dimethyl sulfoxide, and two kinds of membrane solutions were obtained. With those solutions, a recast membrane was prepared. The exchange capacity, rate of water content and conductivity of the recast membrane were measured. The results show that the properties of the recast membrane are lower than those of its mother membrane. This may be caused by that some sulfonic acid groups were destroyed in the dissolving process.


The Activation Mechanism Of Al Alloys With Tin And Gallium In Alkaline Electrolytes, Zhen Ya Li, Ling Yi, Zhi Hui Liu, Lin Yang, Jing Xin Su, Yan Ying Chen Aug 2001

The Activation Mechanism Of Al Alloys With Tin And Gallium In Alkaline Electrolytes, Zhen Ya Li, Ling Yi, Zhi Hui Liu, Lin Yang, Jing Xin Su, Yan Ying Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

The major reason for Al_anode's activation is that Ga and Sn deposit on the aluminum surface and form activated points. The Al_Sn and Al_Ga binary alloys can't be activated in alkaline medium. During the dissolution of the Al_Sn_Ga ternary anode, Sn and Ga dissolve into the solution and transform into ions. After the Sn ions deposit on the surface of Al_anode, the Ga ions will deposit on Sn. The higher activation of the polynary alloy anode is caused by much more new activated points composed of Ga_Sn alloy being continually formed. Ga_Sn alloy with low melting point deposited on the …
