Poisoning and Activation of the Gold Cathode during Electroreduction of CO 2
Source abstract
Abstract
Carbon dioxide reduction at polycrystalline gold cathode in 0.1 M solution has been re‐examined. Like two other group Ib metal cathodes, Ag and Cu, the Au electrode is shown to undergo progressive deactivation during the electrolysis runs. A periodic, electrochemical activation treatment of the gold electrode is described.
