Investigation on Cyclic Reciprocal Derivative Chronopotentiometry. Part II. Theoretical Equation for an Irreversible Reaction

A rigorous mathematical analysis is presented for an irreversible electrode process in the cyclic reciprocal derivative chronopotentiometry. Influences of basic electrochemical parameters, such as transfer coefficient α, rate constant k s , current density j , number of the electrons involved in the electrode reaction n and reactant concentration c 0 • on the properties of the d t /d E - E chronopotentiogram are described.
