The Interaction of Oxygen with Polythiozyl, (SN)x,Electrodes |
| |
Abstract: | Abstract Studies of the background currents for polythioxyl electrodes in 1 N H2SO4 supporting electrolyte shows that oxygen strongly chemisorbs on both parallel and perpendicular surfaces. On fresh surfaces the principle product on anodic breakdown is oxygen but on prolonged cycling surface hydroxides of (SN)x are the major surface functional groups at anodic breakdown. |
