Electrochemical properties of antimony lead electrode in gelled electrolyte prepared by liquid glass and sulfuric acid using polyacrylamide together with polyaniline

Abstract

Gelled electrolyte is made at different temporatures based on liquid glass and sulfuric acid using two organic additives such as polyacrylamide and polyaniline. The antimony lead electrode is used to study the electrochemical properties of gelled electrolyte through cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance and ionic conductivity determination. The resulls showed that the gelled electrolyte made at low temperature is in a more favorable form of gel than that at high temperature, the ability to extract water was also overcome. The resistance of charge transfer of lead electrodes operating in an gelled electrolyte environment is all lower than that in sulfuric acid ( d = 1.26 g /cm³). in which the presence of PANi together with PAM is recorded as the smallest. When the lead electrode was anodized, the simultaneous formation of PbO with PbSO₄ did not appear due to the presence of PANi.
