The mixed adsorption layers of tetramethylthiourea and a cationic detergent formed at electrode surface in NaClO4 (1 mol dm) are described. The systems were characterized by the measurement of differential capacity, zero charge potential, and surface tension at this potential. The data were analyzed to obtain the surface pressure and relative surface excess of tetramethylthoiurea as a function ...

Electrode Reactions A typical electrode reaction involves the transfer of charge between an electrode and a species in solution. The electrode reaction usually referred to as electrolysis, typically involves a series of steps: * Reactant (O) moves to the interface: this is termed mass transport * Electron transfer can then occur via quantum mechanical tunnelling between the electrode and reacta...

A perpendicular mesoporous platinum electrode with a flat surface is successfully synthesized by electrodeposition using titania nanopillars as template, and the electrochemical studies indicate that this material is a promising catalytic electrode for fuel cells because of its high surface area and perpendicular nanopores.

In the current work, a novel sensor was developed for the analysis of Vanillin (VN) by electrochemical polymerization of Niacin over the surface of carbon nanotube paste electrode.
