Determination of the Electron Transfer Number for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction: From Theory to Experiment

Abstract: The forced convection methods on the rotating disk and ring-disk electrodes are carefully analyzed toward their use for calculation of the electron transfer number (n) for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on various catalysts. It is shown that the widely used Koutechy–Levich (KL) method is not suitable to determine n for the ORR either theoretically or experimentally. From a theoretical viewpoint, the ORR is neither a single-step nor a one-way reaction and , therefore does not fulfill the assumptions of the… Show more

“…[64] The calculated electron transfer number was 4, signifying the ideal four-electron dominated ORR pathway, similar to the ORR catalyzed by the commercial Pt/C catalyst. The electron transfer number per oxygen molecule was calculated using the below relation [66] 4 d d r n I The electron transfer number per oxygen molecule was calculated using the below relation [66] 4 d d r n I…”

“…[66] Finally, the durability evaluation was carried out for 25 h, and the NiCoP/CNF900 has exhibited remarkable electrocatalytic stability throughout the length of analysis as shown in Figure 8e. Moreover, both the RDE and RRDE results of NiCoP/CNF900 suggest an efficient four-electron pathway: O 2 + 2H 2 O + 4e − → 4OH − .…”
