Popis: Dielectric interface would be formed on the electrode surface during the analysis or disposal of many phenolic compounds due to electro-polymerization. This could cause electrode passivation, or called electrode fouling, which is indicated by the continuously decaying current signal. This paper proposed a model based on the potential drop across the fouling layer, which is helpful for deep understanding of the electrode passivation/fouling process. This model successfully fitted the experimental results.
