Cyclic Voltammetery

Electrodes made of group VIII and IB metals were examined for their redox process and electrocatalytic activities towards the oxidation of ethylene glycol in alkaline solutions. The method of cyclic voltammetery (CV) and Open circuit potentials measurement (OCP) was employed. It is found that considerable electrooxidation current are observed for silver and copper but lower anodic overpotential for oxidation is obtained for gold and platinum. Oxide layer produced on the surface of all electrodes in alkaline solution under anodic scan participates in ethylene glycol electrooxidation. Oxidation current observed in the reverse scans for platinum and gold are higher than those observed in forward potential scan. Open circuit potential measurements have shown the interaction of ethylene glycol and electrodes.

The electrodeposited Ni-P coatings are commonly used for their electrocatalytic properties towards hydrogen evolution reaction. However, their corrosion resistance in concentrated alkaline solutions is still less known. In this work, the effect of phosphorus on the resistance of nickel electrodeposits to electrochemical corrosion in 5 M KOH solution, was studied. Open circuit potential and anodic polarization measurements were performed to determine parameters of the corrosion resistance of the crystalline Ni deposit and amorphous Ni-P electrocoating. It was found that alloying of nickel with phosphorus is the effective manner of the improvement of the corrosion resistance of the nickel coatings. The obtained Ni-P electrode material contained 10 wt.% of P and revealed amorphous structure. The increase in the corrosion resistance of the Ni90P10system as compared to that determined for comparable Ni polycrystalline electrode was due to phosphate formation responsible for broad passivation potential in alkaline medium and amorphous structure.

ABSTRACTElectrochemical polarization experiments were performed on Si wafers in ammoniacal solutions maintained at a pH in the range of 9.5 to 11.5. Anodic polarization of silicon yielded curves which are typical for materials that undergo passivation. The values of open circuit potential and passivation potential for p-type Si wafers were more anodic than for the n-type Si wafers. Corrosion current density of p-type Si wafers of low resistivity was lower than that of wafers of high resistivity. Corrosion current densities correlated well with surface roughness induced in alkaline solutions. Addition of surfactant or H2O2 to alkaline solutions reduced critical current density for passivation and corrosion current density.

The passivation behavior of steel rods and wires those are produced in Nepal was studied in 1 M HCl and 1 M NaOH solutions at 25°C, open to air using immersion tests and electrochemical measurements. The corrosion resistance of all the examined steel rods and wires in this work is found significantly higher in alkaline 1 M NaOH than in acidic 1 M HCl, mostly due to an ennoblement of the open circuit corrosion potentials of the steels at passive potential regions in 1 M NaOH solution at 25°C. The corrosion rate of all the examined steel rods and wires is about in the range of 1-5 x 101 mm/y in acidic 1 M HCl solution which is nearly three orders of magnitude lower corrosion resistance than in alkaline 1 M NaOH solution at 25°C. Therefore, these steel rods and wires seem to be very corrosion resistance materials in very alkaline environments like a reinforcing concrete. Key words: steels; corrosion rate; open circuit potential; immersion test; electrochemical measurements. DOI: 10.3126/njst.v9i0.3181 Nepal Journal of Science and Technology 9 (2008) 91-97

The aim of this research was to study the oxidation and reduction of the adsorbed thiosulfate on the platinum electrode in a slightly alkaline medium. The adsorption was performed at the open circuit conditions. The reduction of the adsorbed layer in the hydrogen region is slower in a slightly alkaline medium than in acid. The mechanism of reduction and oxidation of adsorbed molecules is probably the same. The nonstationary currents measured in presence of thiosulfates showed that the change in the oxidation number does not take place during the adsorption in the double layer region. In the hydrogen region, thiosulfate replaces the adsorbed hydrogen while beeing reduced. Nonstationary currents at higher concentrations of thiosulfate indicate the presence of more layers on the electrode. Upon reaching higher concentrations of thiosulfate the oxidation reaction takes place between thiosulfate in solution and adsorbed product of its reduction. The open circuit potential of the platinum electrode measured in a thiosulfate solution was 0.780 and 0.783 V against the hydrogen electrode in the same solution.

The synergistic effect of the simultaneous additions of tungsten and zirconium in thesputter-deposited amorphous or nanocrystalline Zr-(12-21)Cr-W alloys is studied in 0.5 MNaCl solution open to air at 25°C using corrosion tests and open circuit potentialmeasurements. Corrosion rates of the sputter-deposited Zr-(12-21)Cr-W alloys containing10-80 at % tungsten (that is, 0.95-1.85 x 10-2 mm.y-1) are more than one order of magnitudelower than that of the sputter-deposited tungsten and even lower than those of zirconium aswell as chromium in 0.5 M NaCl solution. The addition of 8-73 at % zirconium content inthe sputter-deposited binary W-(12-21)Cr alloys seems to be more effective to improve thecorrosion-resistant properties of the sputter-deposited ternary Zr-Cr-W alloys containing12-21 at % chromium in 0.5 M NaCl solution. The sputter-deposited Zr-(17-21)Cr-W alloyscontaining an adequate amounts of zirconium metal showed the more stable passivity andshowed higher corrosion resistance than those of alloy-constituting elements in 0.5 M NaClsolution open to air at 25°C.Keywords: Zr-(12-21)Cr-W alloys, sputter deposition, corrosion test, open circuit potential,0.5 M NaCl.DOI:  10.3126/jncs.v25i0.3305Journal of Nepal Chemical Society Volume 25, 2010 pp 75-82
