Electrochemical behaviour of Ni and Ni-PVC electrodes for the electroxidation of ethanol (Tingkah Laku Elektrokimia Pengoksidaan Etanol Menggunakan Elektrod Ni dan Ni-PVC)

In this study, two nickel based electrodes were prepared; nickel foil and nickel-polyvinylchloride (Ni-PVC), in order to study their electrochemical behavior using cyclic voltammetry, CV and chronocoulometry, CC. Ni electrode was prepared from Ni metal foil while Ni-PVC electrode was prepared by mix...
