Abstract

The electrochemical behaviors of vanadium(V) compounds(NH 4VO 3 and V 2O 5) in H 2SO 4 solutions were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and rotation ring disk electrode (RRDE) techniques. There were three anodic peaks and three cathodic peaks appeared on the CV plots at inert Pt electrode. But compared with the V 2O 5, the CV plot of NH 4VO 3 had one more anodic peak. There also appeared four anodic peaks at RRDE plots. We carefully analyzed these peaks and made some reasonable initial explaination.
