Abstract
A method is proposed for stabilizing solution pH inside an electrochemical cell. During the working electrode polarization, an electrolyte of the same composition as that of the working one, but with a different pH value is continuously added into the cell. Its pH value and rate of addition are selected so as to compensate variations in the electrolyte's acidity occurring in the cell.
