How are Electrochemical Techniques Used to Study Catalysis?
Several electrochemical techniques are employed to study and optimize catalytic processes. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) is used to analyze the redox behavior of catalysts and identify reaction intermediates. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) helps in understanding the charge transfer resistance and capacitance at the electrode-electrolyte interface. Chronoamperometry and chronopotentiometry provide insights into the stability and activity of catalysts under constant potential or current conditions.
