Abstract

The electrochemical reduction characteristics of nitrobenzene was extensively investigated by using the techniques such as quasi_steady_state polarization,cyclic voltammetry,fast linear potential sweep method and chronoamperometry in this paper.The electroanalytic properties of Cu,Cu_Hg and Cu_Ni electrodes were evaluated.Based on the study of the transient steping behaviour of nitrobenzene to PAP,the reduction mechanism was discussed.The results showed that the transition steps existed on the electrochemical reduction of nitrobenzene in acidic solution,the reactant is also absorbed on electrodes surface. The control step in the reduction of nitrobenzene was ascribed to the diffusion of nitrobenzene and its electrochemical reductive products in the acid solution.
