Study of the Electrocatalytic Reaction of Hydrogen Peroxide Mediated by Azobenzene Monolayer with Several Multipotential Pulse Techniques
نویسندگان
چکیده
The comparison between the response corresponding to a simple charge transfer taking place at an electroactive monolayer with that of an electrocatalytic process at a modified electrode are presented by using the multipulse potential techniques cyclic staircase voltammetry (CSCV) and cyclic square wave voltammetry (CSWV). General analytical and explicit equations for the I E responses have been tested by means of the study of the reduction of azobenzene monolayer at mercury electrode. The value of the chemical rate constant ( k c ' = 40 M 1 s 1 ) has been easily obtained from the cathodic plateau of the CSCV curves and from the best fitting between theoretical and experimental CSWV curves.
