Cyclic Voltammetry of Platinum in Weakly-acidic Aqueous Solutions

Electrochemical characteristics of nanostructured platinum electrodes--a cyclic voltammetry study.

Platinum surfaces play a decisive role in catalysis in sensors, fuel cells, solar cells and other applications like neuronal stimulation and recording. Technical advances in nanotechnology contributed tremendously to the progress in these fields. A fundamental understanding of the chemical and physical interactions between the nanostructured surfaces and electrolytes is essential, but was barel...

Adsorption of Pb (II) ions from aqueous solutions using polycresol film fabricated by cyclic voltammetry

Polycresol p (o-cresol) has been synthesized by cyclic voltammetry technique in acidic medium using sulfuric acid as an electrolyte at 30 o C. The electrosynthesized polymer was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The adsorption properties of the fabricated polymer were investigated for adsorptive removal of Pb (II) ions from aqueous solutions. Vario...

Platinum Nanoparticle Electrode Modified Iodine using Cyclic Voltammetry and Chronoamperometry for Determination of Ascorbic Acid

This study investigated the oxidation of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) using a platinum nanoparticle electrode coated with an iodine monolayer, called a modified electrode. The electrode were grown using the cyclic voltammetry technique and the electrochemical measurements were taken using the cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometric technique. In the case of platinum nanoparticle electrode modifi...

Cyclic Voltammetry Investigation of the Mechanism of CuInSe2 and CuIn(Al)Se2 Electrodeposition from Aqueous Solution

Electrodeposition of CuInSe2 (CIS) and CuInAlSe2 (CIAS) from aqueous solution has been systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetery implementing different scan rates. It has been shown that electrodeposited CIS and CIAS have been formed on the substrate through electrochemical-chemical interaction of reduces species on the substrate.  From the obtained results, it could be inferred that I...
