Abstract

In this study the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is investigated on a nanoparticulate silver electrocatalyst in alkaline solution. The catalytic activity of the catalyst is determined both in terms of mass activity as well as specific activity and turn over frequency, respectively. It is demonstrated that the established mass activities are independent of the applied catalyst loading, an essential requirement for a reasonable analysis. The determination of the electrochemically active surface area (ECA) or the number of electrochemically accessible sites (N~ECAS~), respectively, is performed by the underpotential deposition of lead. The obtained value of the activity is compared to activities of polycrystalline silver and platinum measured in the same electrolyte, as well as to literature data.

The reduction and oxidation reactions of the Cu(II)/Cu(O) system have been studied with a rotating gold ring-disk electrode in 0.2 M sulphuric acid solutions. Two reduction waves R1 and R2 are obtained. R1 is mainly attributed to the underpotential deposition of copper while R 2 is associated with
