Studies on the Mechanism of the Electrolytic Formation of Perchlorate

Abstract: Current-potential curves of the electrolytic oxidation of chlorate were determined polarographically using a platinum microanode. The nature of the polarogram thus obtained was quite different from that of the usual oxidation-reduction process. Two potential stages were found; the lower one is believed to be the potential of oxygen evolution and the higher one the potential of perchlorate formation. Probably the limiting current for the oxidation of water could also be seen in the polarogram.Electrolysis of ch… Show more

“…Although several mechanisms have been proposed [3,5,7], two mechanisms for the anodic oxidation of chlorate are worth discussion. According to the first mechanism the chlorate reacts with discharged oxygen resulting from the oxidation of water and chemisorbed at the electrode surface [14].…”
