INVESTIGATION OF ELECTROCHEMICAL-BEHAVIOR OF ARS ON GC ELECTRODE BY SPECTROELECTROCHEMISTRY WITH LOPTLC

The electrochemical behavior of Alizarin Red S(ARS) on GC electrode has been studied in acidic condition by spectroelectrochemistry with LOPTLC. It was found that there are three electrochemical reactions and followed by a chemical reaction of ARS in the potential range of 1.00——0.60V. The mechanism of electrode reactions has been studied and suggested based on the informations obtained from electrochemical and insitu spectroelectrochemical experiments.

THE REVERSIBLE ELECTRON-TRANSFER REACTION OF MYOGLOBIN AT BRILLIANT CRESYL BLUE MODIFIED PLATINUM GAUZE ELECTRODE

The electrochemical behavior of myoglobin at a Brilliant Cresyl Blue (BCB) modified platinum gauze electrode and spiral pt wire in the BCB solution in optically transparent thin layer cell base been investigated by using cyclic potential-absorbance method and double potential step chronoabsorptometry. The results reveal a reversible electron transfer resection of myoglobin. Exhaustive reductive and oxidative electrolyses are achieved at the modified platinum surface in 20 and 100s respectively.

SURFACE CHARACTERIZATION OF COBALT TETRAPHENYLPORPHYRIN MODIFIED GLASSY CARBON ELECTRODE BY XPS

Surface structure of the glassy carbon surface modified with cobalt tetraphenyl-porphyrin (CoTPP) by thermal-treatment has been studied by XPS, DTA and TG. During the thermal treatment a bond can be formed between the glassy carbon surface and TPP. Therefore the stability of electrode for the catalysis of dioxygen reduction is improved. Upon thermal treatment at 600 degrees C, FWHM of Co(2p(2/2)) is broadened, the reason is due to overlapping of peaks of multiple states, the spin orbit separation between Co (2p(1/2)) and Co (2p(3/2)) increases to 15.5-16.3eV, which indicated a change from low spin divalent states, the kinetic energy of Co L3VV Auger line and Auger parameter also increase. These changes of central cobalt ion provide a suitable redox potential for Co(III)/Co(II) which is related to the activity for catalysis of dioxygen reduction.

A NEW KIND OF FLOW-THROUGH ELECTROCHEMICAL DETECTOR USING CARBON-FIBER ELECTRODE FOR LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHY

An electrochemical detector which was constracted by using a carbon fibre electrode in a flow-through cell was connected with a liquid chromatographic column. Thus a sensitive,

ELECTROCATALYSIS ON ELECTROCHEMICALLY PRETREATED GLASSY-CARBON ELECTRODE

The surface structure of glassy carbon electrode subjected to "galvanostat" pretreat- ment and its electrocatalytic behaviour in the presence of ascorbic acid, catechol and hydroquinone were studied by means of cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, chronocoulometry and scanning electron microscopy. The electrocatalytic mechanism was discussed, which was due to the adsorption and the catalysis of functional groups at the electrode surface. Three separated peaks from the mixture of catecnol, hydroq...

RESEARCHES ON CHEMICALLY MODIFIED ELECTRODES - ELECTROCHEMISTRY OF 1-12 PHOSPHOMOLYBDIC HETEROPOLY ANION FILM MODIFIED ELECTRODE

A monolayer of 1:12 phosphomolybdic anion (PMo_(12)) was modified electrochemically on a glassy carbon electrode and its electrochemical behavior was studied with cyclic voltammetry (CV). It is shown that PMo_(12) film is adsoibed strongly on the surface of glassy carbon electrodes, H~+ ions in the solution plays an important role in the electrochemical processes of PMo_(12) film modified electrodes, whereas other anions, such as Cl~-, NO_3~-, SO_4~(2-), ClO_4~- and PO_4~(3-) etc., do not take par...
