Electrochemical oscillation in the oxidation of tritolylamines using YBa2Cu3O7-delta ceramics electrode in oxygen atmosphere
The electrochemical redox reaction of tritolylamine isomers was studied using polycrystalline YBa2Cu3O7-delta(YBCO) pellets as electrodes. The oscillatory phenomena in which the anodic electrode of YBCO reacts between oxidation and reduction of the substrate in rapid alternation nonlinearly were observed. The cathodic reaction of YBCO forts cation radical species of the substrate.
