Abstract:One of the most commonly used electroanalytical techniques for determining the effective surface area and reaction rate constant in a redox system is linear sweep voltammetry due to its sensitive response to a reaction and easy implementation. In linear sweep voltammetry, a linear potential scan is applied to an immobile electrode submerged in an unstirred analyte. The responses to the applied potential is the total current which consists of the faradaic and non-faradaic currents. The faradaic current is the c… Show more
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.
