Journal of Electrochemistry

The titanium (Ti) based lead oxide (PbO2) electrodes doped with praseodymium oxide (Pr2O3) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were prepared by electrodeposition. The surface morphologies and structures of the as-prepared thin films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, respectively. The results showed that the denser and more uniform coatings with smaller particles and larger surfaces were obtained by doping, which modified the micro-structure of the Ti/SnO2-Sb2O3/Pr2O3-PVP-PbO2 electrode. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was also used to study the electrocatalytic activity of …

Preparations And Applications Of Irsnox Electrode In Electrochemical Synthesis Of 2,5-Dichlorophenol, Xiang-Yu Ma, Xu-Guo Tu, Rui-Nan He, Ya Chen, Gui-Sheng Zhu, Shou-Yan Shao, Song Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

The electrodes of titanium based iridium tin oxides (IrSnOx) have been prepared by traditional thermal decomposition method and further applied to the electrosynthsis of 2,5-dichlorophenol in order to explore a green and high efficient synthesis route. The results showed that the electrode surface existed apparent cracks, while the intermediate layer prepared with Sn:Sb=94:6 existed less cracks and longer life time. The main products of the electrolytic reaction were 2,5-dichlorophenol, p-chlorophenol, and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene. The electrosynthsis yield of 2,5-dichlorophenol reached 57% and the selectivity of 2,5-dichlorophenol was as high as 93% by using the IrSnOx as an anode, which is obviously better …
