Application example 1
Characterization of open circuit potential under switching light:
1. TMGL @ TiO obtained in the above example2Photo-anode sheet of film was cut to 1x1cm2The back sides of the squares were connected with enameled wires and sealed with 704 silicone rubber, leaving one side exposed.
2. The electrodes obtained by the step 1) are respectively arranged in an H-shaped electrolytic cell and are divided into a photoelectrolysis cell or a corrosion cell for measuring open-circuit potential (see figure 2). The electrolyte solution of the photoelectrolysis cell is 0.25M NaS2+0.35M Na2SO3The solution, the corrosion cell, is 3.5% wt NaCl solution.
3. The 304 stainless steel electrode and the saturated calomel electrode are placed in an etching cell, and the photo anode is placed in a photo-electrolysis cell. The 304 stainless steel electrode and the photoanode are in short circuit to serve as working electrodes, and the saturated calomel electrode serves as a reference electrode.
The 4 experiments were tested with Chenhua C660e, and the procedure was chosen such that the distance between the Open Circuit Potential-Time photoelectrolysis cell and the Xe lamp light source was 15 cm. The test was to switch the light once every 100 s.
