Ag(I)与Co(II)离子对阳极析氧过程的电催化作用

Electrocatalytic Effect of Oxygen by Anodic Evlution Ag(I) Co(II) and Ni(II) Ions

Influence of Ag(Ⅰ), Co(Ⅱ) and Ni(Ⅱ) ions on oxygen anodic evolution at Pt and Ti/Pt/PbO2 electrodes was investigated in surphuric acid solutions. The oxygen evolution reaction at Ti/Pt/PbO2 electrode in surphuric acid solutions is characterized by two linearφ~ lgi relationships. At low c.d. it is close to 2.303RT/(1+β)F, whereas at high c.d. it is close to 2.303RT/βF. In the presence of Ag(Ⅰ) or Ni(Ⅱ) ions in the electrolytic solution the Tafel slope of oxygen evolution tends to be low, 2.303RT/(1+β)F (withβ=0.5). However, the oxygen evolution reaction at Pt electrodes in H2SO4 or CoSO4﹢H2SO4 solutions is characterized by one linearφ~ lgi relationship. The Tafel slope is close to 2.303RT/βF. In the presence of Ag(Ⅰ) or Ni(Ⅱ) ions in the electrolytic solution the Tafel slope of oxygen evolution tends to be low, 2.303RT/(1+β)F. The oxygen anodic evolution reactions are catalyzed by Ag(Ⅰ), Co(Ⅱ) and Ni(Ⅱ) ions in the electrolytic solution. When Ag(Ⅰ) or Ni(Ⅱ) was mixed with Co(Ⅱ), a promising catalyst for oxygen anodic evolution with higher catalyst activity than either of them alone was found. A comparison of the PbO2 electrode and the Pt electrode has also been given.
