Adsorption of Molecules at the Electrodes of Batteries and Fuel Cells.

Abstract

The question as to whether electrosorption isotherms for organic compounds were congruent with respect to electrode potential or charge density is discussed. The first fully automatic capillary electrometer controlled by a minicomputer was developed. A gas chromatographic method is described which permits the direct measurement of the activities of neutral organic compounds in aqueous electrolyte solutions. The significance of such activity measurements to electrosorption studies or organic compounds on electrodes is discussed. Biochemical experiments were carried out to determine the role of the electrical double layer at the membrane-solution interface. (Modified author abstract)
