Lead dioxide is a strong oxidizer in sulfuric acid, consequently electrochemical oxidation of solution species at a lead dioxide anode may occur by a two-step, C-E process (chemical oxidation of solution species by PbO2 followed by electrochemical regeneration of the reduced lead dioxide surface). The maximum rate of each step has been determined in sulfuric acid for specified lead dioxide surfaces and compared with the rates observed for the electrochemical oxidation of cerium(III) and manganese(II) on the same electrode surfaces. While the rate of electrochemical oxidation of a partially reduced PbO2 surface may be sufficient to support the observed rates of CeIII and MnII oxidation at the lead dioxide anode, the rate of chemical reaction between PbO2 and the reducing species is not. Hence it is concluded that the lead dioxide electrode functions as a simple, 'inert' electron-transfer agent during the electrochemical oxidation of CellI and MnII in sulfuric acid. In general, it will most probably be the rate of the chemical step which determines the feasibility or otherwise of the C-E mechanism.

Surface treatments are typical surface protection against corrosion or serve to create an attractive appearance for the end customer. However, the surface to which they are applied must be completely oxide-free, otherwise, defects occur which can cause subsequent corrosion or deterioration of the visual appearance of the product. The parts manufactured by wire electrical discharge machining, however, have a high tendency to oxidize. For this reason, this study was aimed at demonstrating the effect of machine setup parameters (gap voltage, pulse on and off time, wire feed and discharge current) on oxygen occurrence on the surface of two non-metallic (aluminium alloy 7475-T7351, chromium nickel superalloy Inconel 625) and four metallic materials (tool alloy steel X210Cr12, Hadfield steel, Creusabro 4800 and Hardox 400). Within this study, 18 samples were produced, where the chemical composition of energy-dispersive X-ray was analysed, on the basis of which the effect of these parameters on the surface oxidation was proved.

This work describes the fabrication of nanostructured copper electrodes using a simple potential cycling protocol that involves oxidation and reduction of the surface in an alkaline solution. It was found that the inclusion of additives, such as benzyl alcohol and phenylacetic acid, has a profound effect on the surface oxidation process and the subsequent reduction of these oxides. This results in not only a morphology change, but also affects the electrocatalytic performance of the electrode for the reduction of nitrate ions. In all cases, the electrocatalytic performance of the restructured electrodes was significantly enhanced compared with the unmodified electrode. The most promising material was formed when phenylacetic acid was used as the additive. In addition, the reduction of residual oxides on the surface after the modification procedure to expose freshly active reaction sites on the surface before nitrate reduction was found to be a significant factor in dictating the overall electrocatalytic activity. It is envisaged that this approach offers an interesting way to fabricate other nanostructured electrode surfaces.
