Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of synthetic boron-doped diamond thin-film electrode (BDD) has been studied in acid media containing 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) by cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and bulk electrolysis. The results have shown that in the potential region of supporting electrolyte stability occur reactions involving the oxidation of 4-CP to phenoxy radical and 1,4-benzoquinone. Polymeric materials, which result in electrode fouling, are also formed in this potential region. Electrolysis at high anodic potentials, in the region of electrolyte decomposition, complex oxidation reactions can take place involving electrogenerated hydroxyl radicals, leading to the complete incineration of 4-chlorophenol. Electrode fouling is inhibited under these conditions. The experimental results have been also compared with a theoretical model. This model is based on the assumption that the rate of the anodic oxidation of 4-CP is a fast reaction. Finally, high-pressure liquid chromatographic analyses revealed that the main intermediate products of 4-CP oxidation were 1,4-benzoquinone, maleic acid, formic acid, and oxalic acid. © 2001 The Electrochemical Society.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
