Determining Electron Transfer Kinetics at Porous Electrodes

Porous carbon materials are of tremendous importance for electrochemical energy storage. Their low cost, wide potential window and high surface area make them ideal electrodes for many applications. The activity of the electrode towards a certain reaction is given by both the available wetted surface area and the electron transfer constant k0. The present study investigates which electrochemical methods are suitable to determine k0 on porous...
