CoO2 was formed by anodic treatment of Co (OH)2 deposited on a platinum electrode in a borate buffer at +600-+900 mV (vs. SCE). Anodic polarization of a cobalt electrode at +900 mV yielded a mixture of p-CoOOH and COO2. Exposure of CoO2 to air for 3 months resulted in decomposition to CocO4.In previous studies of the passivation and anodic emission MJssbauer spectroscopy, evidence was found oxidation of cobalt in borate buffer (pH 8.5) using for Co(IV) 1 in the surface film formed at high anodic 9 Electrochemical Society Active Member. l In these studies the M~ssbauer spectra are from the ~TFe Key words: M~fssbauer spectroscopy, cobalt dioxide (CoO~), codaughter isotopes that result from electron capture decay in the bait, anodic oxidation. 57Co parent isotope.Publication costs of this article were assisted by Lehigh University.
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.
