Reduction of tetrachloroaurate (III) at boron-doped diamond electrodes: Gold deposition versus gold colloid formation
Tetrachloroaurate(III) dissolved in dilute aqueous aqua regia is electrochemically reduced at boron-doped diamond electrodes to form gold metal. The reduction process is studied by voltammetric, SEM, and XPS techniques. Both the deposition of gold and the anodic stripping process are detected. The r...
