Electrochemical behavior of electrode modified with a cobalt hexacyanoferrate film: Effect of the supporting electrolyte cation

Cobalt hexacyanoferrate films are synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode with sodium, potassium, and ammonium salts in the supporting electrolyte. The electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode is studied in individual solutions of the salts and in their mixtures. The change in electrochemical properties of cobalt hexacyanoferrate agrees with an increase in the interaction of cations with the film in the series Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, NH ₄ ⁺ , Cs⁺. The effect of the energy of interaction between the modify ing-substance crystal lattice and counter-ions on the electrochemical processes is discussed
