Pyridine molecules have been used as a catalyst to reduce the activation energy of the CO2 reduction reaction. It has been reported that CO2 is reduced by pyridine catalysts at low overpotential around −0.58 V vs. SCE. Poly(4-vinylpyridine), which has pyridine functional groups shows similar catalytic properties to reduce CO2 at low overpotential like pyridinium catalysts. Different thickness of P(4-VP) coated Pt electrodes were analyzed to determine the catalytic properties for CO2 reduction. Cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods showed the catalytic CO2 reduction properties of a P(4-VP)/Pt electrode. Thin P(4-VP)/Pt film showed a low current density of −0.16 mA cm−2 under CO2 atmosphere and the current density reached −0.45 mA cm−2 with increase of the P(4-VP) thickness. The increase of current density was explained by an increased surface concentration of adsorbed pyridinium groups of the thick P(4-VP) layer. Nyquist plots also showed decrease of impedance with increase of the P(4-VP) layer indicating fast charge transfer between Pt and the P(4-VP) layer due to the increase of hybrid ionic complex formation on the Pt surface. However, charge transfer is restricted when the P(4-VP) layer becomes more thick because of slowed protonation of pyridine groups adjacent to the Pt surface due to the suppressed permeability of electrolyte solution into the PVP membrane. This electrochemical observation provides a new aspect of P(4-VP) polymer for CO2 reduction.

In metal electrodeposition in the limiting diffusion current density range the deposition current density remains constant regardless of the deposition overpotential used. At the same time, the larger the deposition overpotential is the more disperse is the formed deposit, which is characterised by an increased specific surface. The difference in the specific surface of disperse deposits obtained at two different overpotentials in the limiting diffusion current density range is correlated with the difference between the deposition overpotentials. A method for the estimation of the surface tension of solid copper in copper sulfate solutions is also proposed.

The hydrogen overpotential on fine silver cathodes has been determined from 2 to 35° and over a current density range from 0.03 to 2000 μa cm−2. Two Tafel slopes were observed, RT/F at low currents, 2RT/F at high currents. The stoichiometric number was found to be one and the symmetry factor one-half at low currents. The heat of activation changed from 18.8 kcal at low currents to 14.3 at high currents.
