Abstract: | The phenomenon of catalytic hydrogen evolution in the presence of platinum salts on the epoxy-resin-impregnated graphite-based mercury film electrode was studied. Two measurements were performed: (i) the deposition of catalyst on the IGE surface from HCl solution containing H2PtCl6 and HgCl2; (ii) the voltammetric curve of a solution of HCL + KCl was recorded. The effect of some parameters on the catalytic hydrogen evolution peak potential was studied. The investigations performed have shown that the four following parameters have a decisive effect on the form of the CHE curve: (1) Hg2+ concentration in the deposition step; (2) deposition potential value; (3) deposition time; (4) Pt(IV) concentration during the deposition step. It was established that, with increasing amount of Pt deposited on the IGE, a considerable shift of the CHE peak potential towards positive values occurred. A linear potential dependence of the CHE peak on log cPt was obtained when the Pt(IV) concentration was changed from 4×10−9M to 2×10−6M. That dependence can be employed well for analytical purposes. |
