Resumen:
The effect of colloidal hematite adhesion on the electrochemical impedance of mercury electrodes was studied, using water- ethanol mixtures for different alcohol concentrations and electrode potentials. The impedance decreases as the number of attached particles increases. The experimental results can be analyzed in terms of an equivalent circuit, having a constant phase element (CPE). The value of the CPE is directly connected with the coverage of the electrode. A qualitative interpretation is proposed in terms of the behaviour of the metal/hematite interphase when an AC signal is applied.
