Electrocatalytic Study at Silver/Polypyrrole Nanowires Composite Modified Electrodes
Asian Journal of Chemistry,
Vol. 22 No. 1 (2010): Vol 22 Issue 1, 2010
Abstract
Silver modified composite electrodes were prepared by electrochemical
method on the polypyrrole (PPy) nanowires modified electrodes.
The surface behaviour of it was investigated by scanning electronic
microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The electrocatalytic
activity of it was characterized by electroreduction of nitrate
and their reduction products. The effect of solution pH, electrolytic
potentials and electrolytic current density on nitrate electrolysis and the
product were also examined. The experimental results indicate that Ag/
PPy nanowires composite modified electrodes have higher catalytic
activity toward nitrate reduction, the nitrite and ammonia in the resulted
solution products are always at low concentration. This result shows
that the electrodes have promising application in environmental
remediation.
