Voltaic Cell

A reversible silver − silver chloride reference electrode for use in melts at high temperatures has been developed. It was found that the solution of silver chloride in an equimolar mixture of KCl–NaCl melt is ideal for the range of concentrations studied, i.e. 1.0 × 10−3 to 6.0 × 10−2 mole fraction of AgCl.The electromotive force of the voltaic cell[Formula: see text]in which the half-cell to the right contains the above-mentioned reference electrode, was measured as a function of CoCl2 concentration. The applicability of the Nernst equation to this system was established. Deviation from ideality was observed in the case of the solution of CoCl2 in the melt solvent, and this was attributed to the formation of a complex. The dissociation constant of this complex was calculated as 4.50 × 10−2 at 710 °C.The effect of temperature on the electromotive force of this cell was also measured, and the heat of the cell reaction in the presence of solvent (Co + 2AgCl → CoCl2 + 2Ag) was calculated from the data as 22.8 ± 1.3 kcal.The thermodynamic significance of the standard electrode potential of the Co–Ag voltaic cell, derived experimentally as 0.324 volt, is discussed briefly.

Using a reversible silver – silver chloride reference electrode, described in the first paper of this series, standard electrode potentials have been established for the systems lead – lead chloride, zinc – zinc chloride, and nickel – nickelous chloride, in melts containing equimolar quantities of KCl and NaCl. Deviations from ideality were observed, and these were attributed to the formation of complexes. Dissociation constants for the complexes were calculated. The effect of temperature on the electromotive forces of the voltaic cells was also measured, and the heats of the cell reactions were calculated from the data.

Using a silver–silver chloride reference electrode, the standard electrode potential his been established for the equilibrium Cd|Cd++ in melts containing equimolar quantities of KCl and NaCl. The experimentally obtained standard potential was greater than that calculated from theoretical thermodynamic data. This difference was attributed to the formation of a cadmium complex in the melt. A dissociation constant for the complex was calculated.The effect of temperature on the electromotive force of the silver–cadmium voltaic cell was also measured, and the heat of the cell reaction was calculated from the data. To extend the temperature range of the cadmium data, a cadmium–lead alloy was used in the higher temperature experiments. To correlate these data with those for the pure cadmium system, the activity coefficients of cadmium in the alloy were determined electrometrically using the silver–silver chloride electrode as a reference. It was found that the activity coefficients were in agreement with previously published data obtained at lower temperatures using a pure cadmium reference electrode. The activity coefficients were virtually independent of temperature but showed large positive deviations from unity when the mole fraction of cadmium was decreased below about 0.8.

High-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) is a promising non-invasive neuromodulation technique, which has been widely used in the clinical intervention and treatment of neurological or psychiatric disorders. Sintered Ag/AgCl electrode has become a preferred candidate for HD-tDCS, but its service life is very short, especially for long-term anodal stimulation. To address this issue, a novel highly durable conductive carbon/silver/silver chloride composite (C/Ag/AgCl) electrode was fabricated by a facile cold rolling method. The important parameters were systematically optimized, including the conductive enhancer, the particle size of Ag powder, the C:Ag:PTFE ratio, the saline concentration, and the active substance loading. The CNT/Ag/AgCl-721 electrode demonstrated excellent specific capacity and cycling performance. Both constant current anodal polarization and simulated tDCS measurement demonstrated that the service life of the CNT/Ag/AgCl-721 electrodes was 15-16 times of that of sintered Ag/AgCl electrodes. The much longer service life can be attributed to the formation of the three-dimensional interpenetrating conductive network with CNT doping, which can maintain a good conductivity and cycling performance even if excessive non-conductive AgCl is accumulated on the surface during long-term anodal stimulation. Considering their low cost, long service life, and good skin tolerance, the proposed CNT/Ag/AgCl electrodes have shown promising application prospects in HD-tDCS, especially for daily life scenarios.
