Theories of Ultramicrodisc Electrodes : Review article

Abstract

This review describes the theory of mass transport at a ultramicrodisc electrodes under diffusion-limited reaction and electrochemical reaction (EC’). The analytical solutions, approximate expressions and simulations of transient current at a ultramicrodisc electrode under diffusion control are discussed. Tabular compilations of dimensionless current are provided. The steady and non-steady state current for disc electrode for EC’ reactions are also discussed.
