Differential Pulse Voltammetry - Characteristics

Characteristics

Differential pulse voltammetry has these characteristics:

(1) Reversible reactions show symmetrical peaks, and irreversible reactions show asymmetrical peaks.

(2) The peak potential is equal to E1/2r-ΔE in reversible reactions, and the peak current is proportional to the concentration.

(3) The detection limit is about 10-8 M.
