Investigating the voltammetric reduction of methylviologen at gold and carbon based electrode materials. Evidence for a surface bound adsorption mechanism leading to electrode 'protection' using multi-walled carbon nanotubes

Cyclic voltammetry was recorded in an aqueous solution of 1,1′-dimethyl-4,4′ bipyridinium dichloride (" methylviologen" or "paraquat") at a variety of electrode materials namely gold, boron doped diamond (BDD), edge (eppg) and basal plane (bppg) pyrolytic graphite electrode. Prev...
