Electrochemistry impedance spectrum

Figure 4.16 is the electrochemistry impedance spectrum (EIS) of jamesonite electrode under the conditions of different DDTC concentration, and its EIS parameters are shown in Table 4.2. It follows that ... 

Abstract The flotation mechanism is discussed in the terms of corrosive electrochemistry in this chapter. In corrosion the disolution of minerals is called self-corrosion. And the reaction between reagents and minerals is treated as inhibition of corrosion. The stronger the ability of inhibiting the corrosion of minerals, the stronger the reagents react with minerals. The two major tools implied in the research of electrochemical corrosion are polarization curves and EIS (electrochemistry impedance spectrum). With these tools, pyrite, galena and sphalerite are discussed under different conditions respectively, including interactions between collector with them and the difference of oxidation of minerals in NaOH solution and in lime. And the results obtained from this research are in accordance with those from other conventional research. With this research some new information can be obtained while it is impossible for other methods.

A number of other operational problems exist when using the FFT algorithm. The most important of these, as far as electrochemistry is concerned, is due to the inherently nonlinear nature of the system. When Eq. (56) is used to measure the impedance with an arbitrary time domain input function (i.e. not a single-frequency sinusoidal perturbation), then the Fourier analysis will incorrectly ascribe the harmonic responses due to system nonlinearity, to input signal components which may or may not be present at higher frequencies. As a consequence, the measured impedance spectrum may be seriously in error.

The same setup is used in impedance spectroscopy. Here, electrode impedance composed of amplitude and phase is measured by putting a sine voltage with varying frequency (V/jy in Fig. 1.6) on the electrode (a DC offset of Vr will exist at Vw) and measuring the resulting current amplitude and phase shift over the frequency. The impedance spectrum of the electrode under test, i.e. Z-w rk versus frequency of Vi, is determined. An electrode model can be extracted from the resulting impedance data. It is usually composed of the prevalent linear components in electrical engineering like resistor and capacitor and components which are defined for the especial use in electrochemistry. One of these elements is introduced in Chap. 8, namely the constant phase element. 

Electrochemistry in general and the EIS in particular are often used to analyze both bulk sample conduction mechanisms and interfacial processes, where electron transfer, mass transport, and adsorption are often present. EIS analysis has often treated the bulk and interfacial processes separately [4]. The analysis is achieved on the basis of selective responses of bulk and interfacial processes to sampling AC frequencies. The features appearing in the impedance AC frequency spectmm can be described according to the theory of impedance relaxations. Again, as in the case of any other spectroscopy method, the subject of the EIS analysis is the detection and interpretation of these spectrum features.
