An investigation is reported on lead dioxide electrodeposition from methanesulfonate electrolytes additionally containing Ni2+ ions. It is shown that lead dioxide electrodes micromodified by nickel have different physico-chemical properties vs. nonmodified PbO2-anodes that are formed during the deposition. Electrocatalytical reactivity of electrodes involved in comparison to both the oxygen evolution, as well as to the electrooxidation of 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic (2,4-D) acid is investigated. Processes of electrochemical oxidation of 2,4-D on various materials occur qualitatively with the same mechanism and differ only in the rate. It is shown that the Ni-PbO2-anode possesses the highest electrocatalytic activity: the destruction rate of 2,4-D on it increases in 1.5 times in comparison with nonmodified lead dioxide. The COD of a 0.4 mM solution of 2,4-D, determined by the dichromate method, is 90.0 mg dm-3 which is 94 % of the theoretical value.

Abstract Among nano polyaniline materials, polyaniline nanofibers are the most important. The low conductivity and poor processability have become the biggest obstacles to the application of polyaniline as a practical material. The excellent characteristics of new polyaniline nanofiber materials can just overcome the shortcomings of Polyaniline in forming and processing. In this study, a new polyaniline nanofiber was prepared by chemical oxidation, its structure was characterized, the mechanism of improving its conductivity was studied, and its superior electrocatalytic activity was evaluated by Electrochemical performance test. The results show that the diameter of polyaniline nanofibers is 20nm ~ 50nm and the fiber length is 2µm ~ 5µm. The structure is uniform and the conductivity can reach 13.5 S/cm. he electrocatalytic activity of polyaniline nanofibers for oxygen evolution and chlorine evolution was systematically tested. It was found that the electrocatalytic activity of polyaniline nanofibers for oxygen evolution was higher than that of polyaniline nanofibers. The electrocatalytic activity of carbon paper electrode prepared by β-PbO2 nano powder is superior to that of traditional chlorine evolution anode Ti/RuO2.
