Abstract

The titanium substrates were bombarded with 1×10 ̄(17)~5×10 ̄(17)ions·cm ̄(-2) ofpalladium at the room temperature. The surface composition of implanted electrede and concentration-depth profiles of various elements were measured by AES. The electrored uction processes ofnitrobenzene(NB)in 0.1 mol/L NaOH solution at Pd/Ti electrodes have been investigated by cyclicvoltaivimetry.The results show that the palladium implanted titanium electrodes exhibit a high catalyticactivity in the electroreduction of NB. The NB radical anion,which is the product of one-electronelectroreduction of NB,was detected by ESR in-situ in conjunction with electrochemical methods. Aniline was also detected as a product of electroreduction of NB by using UV-spectra in-situ. According to the experimental results,the electroreduction mechanisms of NB are discussed.
