Abstract
Ethanol oxidation on polycrystalline palladium electrodes in alkaline media was studied in the presence of halide ions. Addition of halide ions decreased the ethanol oxidation peak current monotonically as a function of increasing halide concentration. The extent of poisoning was found to be in the order I− > Br− > Cl−. Thus, Cl− ions show appreciable inhibition of ethanol oxidation peak current at [Cl−] ~ 10−3 M, whereas Br− and I− inhibit ethanol oxidation even at [Br−] or [I−] ~ 10−6 M. The potential of the ethanol oxidation peak shifted positive with increasing halide ion concentration. The extent of the shift was found to be in the order I− > Br− > Cl−. This study is relevant due to the widespread use of palladium halide complexes in the production of Pd electrocatalysts for ethanol oxidation and other electrocatalytic reactions.
