Performance of different crystal structures of PbO2 on electrochemical degradation of phenol in aqueous solution

Fabrication of cerium-doped lead dioxide anode with improved electrocatalytic activity and its application for removal of Rhodamine B

“…Based on the curve, the oxygen evolution overpotential of TiO 2 -NTs/PbO 2 is determined to 1.72 V, which is consistent with another report [31]. While for TiO 2 -NTs/Ce-PbO 2 , it's 1.81 V. A higher oxygen evolution overpotential suggests that TiO 2 -NTs/Ce-PbO 2 is more suitable for the degradation of organic contaminants than TiO 2 -NTs/PbO 2 [32].…”

Anodic oxidation of mecoprop herbicide at lead dioxide

“…Bonfatti et al [19], when comparing the oxidation of glucose on different electrode materials such as Ti/PbO 2 , Ti/Pt, and Ti/Pt-SnO 2 , showed that the incineration of glucose and its oxidation intermediates (i.e., gluconic and glucaric acid) takes place at reasonable rate only at Ti/PbO 2 electrodes. Abaci et al [42] observed that highly crystalline b-PbO 2 films had stronger performance on phenol degradation thanks to a porous structure that provides an enhanced active surface area, increasing the formation of • OH and favouring the anodic oxidation process.…”

The influence of F− doping on the activity of PbO2 film electrodes in oxygen evolution reaction

“…Thus, it has been used in industrial electrochemistry for several purposes: the active mass in batteries [1] or anodic material for oxygen/ozone evolution [2][3][4], wastewater treatment by electrooxidation of toxic pollutant [5,6] and electrosynthesis [7]. PbO 2 prepared electrochemically exhibits high electronic conductivity.…”
