✦ Synopsis
Attempts were undertaken to explain the influence of polyethylene glycol on electrochemical zinc behaviour in alkaline solution. The average molecular weight of PEG was from a few tens to 900. The methods of anodic and cathodic polarization curves and galvanostatic single pulses were used. It was observed that some glycols (especially PEG 600) shift the cathodic curves to more negative potentials. An increase of exchange current was also found for zinc with PEG 600 admixture. It seems that the activity of polyethylene glycol can be explained by its adsorption at the zinc surface.
