Abstract

A polarization curve, suggested for electrosynthesis in a porous hydrophobized electrode operating in an inner-kinetic mode at a current efficiency for the target product below 100%, depends on the balance between exchange currents and slopes of the side and target reactions and the difference between the equilibrium potential of the side reaction and the steady-state electrode potential. At different slopes of the side and the target reactions, the current efficiency depends on the polarization. Experimental and calculated data satisfactory agree.
