Copper-zinc alloy cyclic voltammetry

For the electrochemical measurements, the copper-2% zinc alloy was mounted into epoxy (Buehler epoxide resin) by curing at room temperature for about 10 h. The finished metal surface had 1 cm2 exposed. The reference electrode probe and both high-density graphite counter electrodes were also positioned into the beaker. The working electrodes were immersed in the solutions for up to 0.5 h prior to the cyclic voltammetry for monitoring the open circuit potential.
