A STUDY OF THE KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF ELECTROLYTIC FILM FORMATION REACTIONS

Abstract

A summary is presented of an investigation on the development of electrochemical tools for studying the electrode-electrolyte interface and on their application to systems of interest. A triangular sweep generator was designed and constructed for use with potential sweeping experiments, and the palladium-hydrogen electrode was studied. Two new techniques for the measurement of double-layer capacitance at solid electrodes were also developed. Capacitance measurements were made on silver electrodes in perchlorate solutions, and a method of wetting a platinum surface with liquid mercury was discovered.
