Preparing Catalyst Electrodes for Electrochemical Tests

Description

This page explains how supported catalyst electrodes are prepared for electrochemical testing with a potentiostat/galvanostat. A potentiostat/galvanostat measures current at an applied potential, or potential at an applied current. It is a standard tool for studying anode and cathode materials used in fuel cells, electrolyze...

Transcript

A potentiostat-galvanostat is the most commonly used instrument in electrochemical characterization, and is used to understand the effect of electrical changes on a chemical reaction.

A potentiostat-galvanostat is an instrument used in electrochemical systems. It measures current at an applied potential in potentiostat mode, or vice versa ...
