The potentiodynamic behaviour of Co(OH)2 hydroxide electrodes is studied in the potential range related to the appearance of Co(III) and Co(IV) species. The corresponding electrochemical reactions involve relatively fast proton transfer processes occurring at potentials close to those predicted from thermodynamics. Sandwich-type structures of the eleclrode/film/solution interface are assumed in the interpretation of the processes. They probably include configurational changes of reactants and products participating in the various electrochemical reactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
