  • Publication number: 20020157967
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrochemical gaseous chlorine sensor. The sensor is characterized by covering one of the electrodes with a polymer material having a sensing activity and conductivity. The sensor includes: an ionic permeable film for separating a measuring chamber and a reference chamber, the ionic permeable film being a solid polymer electrolyte; a first electrode and a second electrode formed on two opposite sides of the ionic permeable film, the first electrode and the second electrode being conductors with catalytic activities; and a conductive polymer film formed on the first electrode. A fixed voltage ranging from −0.3 to 1.3V, preferably 0 to 0.2V, between said first electrode and said second electrode is maintained with a device, when the sensor is in use.

  • Patent number: 5466346
    Abstract: A method for synthesizing quinone from an aromatic compound is developed that employs a paired electro-oxidation method and a undivided electrochemical cell. The electrolyte solution is a combination of an aromatic solution (aqueous or nonaqueous) and a redox mediator solution, which can be V.sup.5+ /V.sup.4+, Fe.sup.3+ /Fe.sup.2+, or Cu.sup.2+ /Cu.sup.+, in an undivided electrochemical cell. The electrolyte reaction is conducted by bubbling oxygen into the bottom of the cathode, then the oxygen is reduced to hydrogen peroxide (H.sub.2 O.sub.2). Simultaneously, at the anode surface, lower valence state ions can be oxidized to higher valence states. Hydrogen peroxide then oxidizes the rest of the low valence state ions to form high valence ions, OH-free radicals, and combinations of both. These ions and radicals then react with the aromatic compound in the solution and form the resultant product, quinone.
