Linear sweep voltammetry for

Gutes and coworkers presented an automated electronic tongue based on sequential injection analysis (SIA) and linear sweep voltammetry, for the simultaneous determination of glucose and ascorbic acid, by means of ANN regression. The models were evaluated with an external test set (Gutes et al., 2006).

The electrochemical behavior of nimodipine was studied in ammonia buffer containing 10% (v/v) ethanol [8]. A single-sweep oscillopolaro-graphic method was then developed for nimodipine in tablets. The calibration graph (peak current at —0.73 V vs. concentration) was linear from 0.2 to 70 pM, and the detection limit was 10 pM. The same authors applied linear sweep voltammetry for the determination of nimodipine in tablets [9]. A reduction peak at —0.62V vs. the Ag/ACl reference...

When the boundary conditions imposed by the experiment allow for the separation of variables f and t (linear sweep voltammetry, for instance, does not), a solution of the form ci(f, t) = Cj -E Z(f)T(t) transforms Eq. (181) into... 

A simple, rapid and seleetive eleetroehemieal method is proposed as a novel and powerful analytieal teehnique for the solid phase determination of less than 4% antimony in lead-antimony alloys without any separation and ehemieal pretreatment. The proposed method is based on the surfaee antimony oxidation of Pb/Sb alloy to Sb(III) at the thin oxide layer of PbSOyPbO that is formed by oxidation of Pb and using linear sweep voltammetrie (LSV) teehnique. Determination was earried out in eoneentrate H SO solution. The influenee of reagent eoneentration and variable parameters was studied. The method has deteetion limit of 0.056% and maximum relative standard deviation of 4.26%. This method was applied for the determination of Sb in lead/aeid battery grids satisfaetory. 

Differential pulse voltammetry provides greater voltammetric resolution than simple linear sweep voltammetry. However, again, a longer analysis time results from the more sophisticated potential waveform. At scan rates faster than 50 mV/sec the improved resolution is lost. Because it takes longer to scan the same potential window than by linear sweep, an even longer relaxation time between scans is required for differential pulse voltammetry. 

As with in vivo voltammetry, a variety of electrochemical techniques have been used for the stripping step. Because of its simplicity, linear sweep voltammetry has enjoyed widespread use however, the detection limit of this technique is limited by charging current. Differential pulse has become popular because it discriminates against the charging current to provide considerably lower detection limits. 

Thus, cyclic or linear sweep voltammetry can be used to indicate whether a reaction occurs, at what potential and may indicate, for reversible processes, the number of electrons taking part overall. In addition, for an irreversible reaction, the kinetic parameters na and (i can be obtained. However, LSV and CV are dynamic techniques and cannot give any information about the kinetics of a typical static electrochemical reaction at a given potential. This is possible in chronoamperometry and chronocoulometry over short periods by applying the Butler Volmer equations, i.e. while the reaction is still under diffusion control. However, after a very short time such factors as thermal... 

We deemed it necessary to confirm the CV results by the alternate method using convolutive potential sweep voltammetry, which requires no assumptions as to the form of the free energy relationship and is ideally suited for an independent analysis of curvature revealed in Figure 7. In convolutive linear sweep voltammetry, the heterogeneous rate constant ke is obtained from the cur-... 

The underpotential deposition (UPD) of metals on foreign metal substrates is of importance in understanding the first phase of metal electrodeposition and also as a means for preparing electrode surfaces with interesting electronic and morphological properties for electrocatalytic studies. The UPD of metals on polycrystalline substrates exhibit quite complex behavior with multiple peaks in the linear sweep voltammetry curves. This behavior is at least partially due to the presence of various low and high index planes on the polycrystalline surface. The formation of various ordered overlayers on particular single crystal surface planes may also contribute to the complex peak structure in the voltammetry curves. 

The electrochemical technique used in PV is known as linear sweep voltammetry with a slow sweep rate. It can be shown [332] that under the conditions just described (a constant S) and for a reversible process, the applied potential (E) is related to the measured current ( ) by... 

Of hundreds of theoretically possible pathways, the list can be trimmed to four using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and chemical arguments [22]. The LSV method is an exceptionally powerful one for analyzing electrochemical processes [24-27]. From LSV studies, it was concluded that a single heterogeneous electron transfer precedes the rate-determining step, cyclization is first order in substrate, and that proton transfer occurs before or in the rate-determining step. The candidates include (a) e-c-P-d-p (radical anion closure). 

The potential of the working electrode is ramped at a scan rate of v. The resultant trace of current against potential is termed a voltamnu ram. In linear-sweep voltammetry (LSV), the potential of the working electrode is ramped from an initial potential Ei to a final potential Ef (cf. Figure 6.2). Figure 6.12 shows a linear-sweep voltammogram for the reduction of a solution-phase analyte, depicted as a function of scan rate. Note that the jc-axis is drawn as a function of overpotential (equation (6.1)), and that the peak occurs just after = 0. 

Potential Sweep Method, In the transient techniques described above, a set of measurements of the potential for a given current or the current for a given potential is measured in order to construct the current-potential function, i = f(E). For example, the Tafel lines shown in Figure 6.20 were constructed from a set of galvanostatic transients of the type shown in Figure 6.18. In the potential sweep technique, i = f(E), curves are recorded directly in a single experiment. This is achieved by sweeping the potential with time. In linear sweep voltammetry, the potential of the test electrode is varied linearly with time (Fig. 6.23a). If the sweep rate is... 

The radical-cation reacts with the nucleophile to form a radical intermediate, which is then oxidised to the carbonium ion, usually at a potential less positive than that required for die first electron transfer process. However, enol ethers show two one-electron waves on linear sweep voltammetry. The firet wave is due to the formation of the radical-anion and the second wave to oxidation of carbon radical intermediates to the carbonium ion. 

Reaction rates for dissociative electron transfer processes are determined by the method of homogeneous electron transfer. The kinetic sequence is illustrated in Scheme 4.1, Linear sweep voltammetry is used to generate the radical-anion fi-om...

Reduction of benzoyl chloride at the peak... 

In linear sweep voltammetry, the potential is varied linearly versus time, and current peaks are registered in correspondence to oxidation or reduction (depending on the potential variation verse) of the analytes. The potential value associated to a peak is characteristic of the specie being oxidizing or reducing, while the peak height can be employed for quantitative purposes. 

Data from electrochemical impedance diagrams yield a simplified quantitative analysis for an appropriate interpretation of the linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) experiments. In fact, the Si electrode potential measured with respect to the reference electrode represents the value within the bulk of the material. The direct current flow for the electrochemical reaction has to overcome the resistance of the space charge layer, which can reach extremely high values when a depletion layer is formed. For p-type Si in the potential range for the HER onset, this excess surface resistance is over 10 f2 cm. Thus, even with a bias of —1 V, the DC...

The summary given by this author rests on the work of several theorists who followed the work of Sevcik. Among the most outstanding of these is Paul Delahay who. with Strassner and others in 1951 1953 contributed much to the basic theory of linear sweep voltammetry with partial interfacial control. Students interested in programs for such simulations should contact Prof. David K. Gosser, Chemistry Department, City College of New York, NY, 10031.
