A rotating ring disk electrode study of the oxygen reduction reaction in lithium containing dimethyl sulfoxide electrolyte: Role of superoxide
We have employed the rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) technique to study the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on gold and glassy carbon cathodes in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) electrolytes containing lithium salts. At the gold ring electrode at 3.0 V vs. Li/Li+ (0.1 M LiPF6) soluble superoxide radic...

We have employed the rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) technique to study the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on gold and glassy carbon cathodes in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) electrolytes containing lithium salts. At the gold ring electrode at 3.0 V vs. Li/Li+ (0.1 M LiPF6) soluble superoxide radical anion undergoes oxidation to O2 under convective-diffusion conditions. For both glassy carbon and gold cathodes, typical oxygen reduction current-potential curves are sensitive to rotation speed and undergo a maximum and further electrode passivation by formation of Li2O2 while the Au ring electrode currents follow the same peak shape with detection of soluble superoxide at the ring downstream in the electrolyte solution.
