The electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on polycrystalline copper in borax buffer

The electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on copper electrodes in a borax buffer has been studied. The effects of surface oxidation and chloride ions in the electrolyte have been investigated. Hydrogen peroxide can be electrochemically reduced on Cu(I) oxidized surfaces. In the absence of c...
