Diagramme de Pourbaix

Résumé

Un diagramme de Pourbaix, ou diagramme potentiel-pH (ou E-pH), indique sur un plan E/pH les domaines d'existence ou de prédominance des différentes formes (ions, complexe, précipité, métal) d'un élément chimique. Ces diagrammes reposent essentiellement sur l'équation de Nernst et permettent de comprendre comment les propriétés d'oxydoréduction d'un couple peuvent être modifiées par un changement d'acidité du milieu. Ils peuvent faire apparaître le domaine de stabilité de l'eau. Ils furent initialement développés par Marcel Pourbaix en 1938. Conventions Pour tracer les courbes présentes sur les diagrammes, on considère que :

Activité et concentration sont égales pour les espèces en solution ;
La température est prise égale à .

Au niveau de la courbe, on a alors les propriétés suivantes :

sur la courbe, la concentration totale dissoute pour un élément donné est fixée. On peut donc trouver sur un diagramme un réseau de courbes, chaque courbe correspondant à une conce

A selective chemiluminescence detection method for reactive oxygen species involved in oxygen reduction reaction on electrocatalytic materials

Pauline Bornoz, Christos Comninellis

An original selective and quantitative detection method for direct access to reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in near-neutral aqueous solutions during transient electrochemical experiments is described herein. Several chemiluminescent probes, which were selected for their high selectivity toward ROS were used and the selective electrogenerated chemiluminescence (SECL) method was validated on several electrocatalytic materials known to exhibit different behaviors toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR); the examined electrodes consisted of platinum, Au(1 1 1), glassy carbon and boron-doped diamond (BDD). We first selected appropriate molecular probes that are suitable for use under electrochemical polarization conditions and that are chemiluminescent in the chosen aqueous solutions. The roles of the concentration, solubility and possible activation of the molecular probes were identified. Then, the information obtained by the simultaneous recording of the amperometric signal was correlated with the chemiluminescence intensity, which was measured with a highly sensitive photomultiplier tube (PMT). The experimental results were interpreted by constructing a potential vs. pH diagram for the oxygenated species. The complementary nature of the information about the mechanistic path of the ongoing mechanism of ORR on the different electrode materials allowed us to propose a unified scheme. A coupled proton electron transfer (CPET) mechanism can be invoked to explain the major differences observed from the identified reactive intermediates in relation to the electrocatalytic activity of the electrode materials.

Converse effect of pressure on the quadrupolar and magnetic transition in Ce3Pd20Si6

Julio Antonio Larrea Jiménez, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

The heavy fermion compound Ce3Pd20Si6 displays unconventional quantum criticality as the lower of two consecutive phase transitions is fully suppressed by magnetic field. Here we report on the effects of pressure as an additional tuning parameter. Specific heat and electrical resistivity measurements reveal a converse effect of pressure on the two transitions, leading to the merging of both transitions at 6.2 kbars. The field-induced quantum criticality is robust under pressure tuning. We rationalize our findings within an extended version of the global phase diagram for antiferromagnetic heavy fermion quantum criticality.

Recovery of Cu, Pb, Cd and Zn from synthetic mixture by selective electrodeposition in chloride solution

Christos Comninellis

Secondary fly ash, resulting from thermal treatment processes, leads to a highly concd. chloride soln. with Cu, Pb, Cd and Zn as main heavy metals when dissolved in water. The selective electrodeposition of these heavy metals was studied. The goal was to recover, under potentiostatic conditions, each heavy metal with high purity, yield and reaction rates. By changing the parameters pH and overpotential, an optimum of the three requirements was looked for. In general, Cu, Pb and Cd could be sepd. with purities of 99 mol% or higher. Underpotential deposition probably is the main reason for the impurities in case of Cu and Pb deposition. H+ redn. as side reaction could be kept small for Cu, Pb and Cd even at lower pH by carefully selecting the overpotential. The quality of the deposits obtained depended strongly on the overpotential, but hardly on the pH. The deposits of Cu, Pb and Cd were easily removable from the cathode due to a dendritic growth mechanism. Zn deposits showed compact growth and adhered to the electrode surface. In addn., the structure of the deposits, revealed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), was compared with the current transients during electrodeposition. An enhancement factor r was introduced to compare the different deposition rates. [on SciFinder (R)]
