Ti/TiO₂, Au Electrodes Prepared by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation and Electron Beam Evaporation

Abstract

Ti/TiO2,Au electrodes were prepared via plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of Ti plate, followed by deposition of a thin (10 nm) Au layer by electron beam evaporation (EBE). The electrodes obtained were used for potentiometric indication of different types of chemical reactions. Ti/TiO2,Au electrodes showed an excellent performance for end point indication in the oxidation-reduction and complexometric titrations similar to the traditional Pt and in the acid-base titration similar to glass electrode.
