Abstract

Using voltammetric and impedance methods, the effects of mixed adsorption layers ACT-CTAB and ACT-SDS on the kinetics and mechanism of In(III) ions electroreduction were investigated. Acetazolamide (ACT) was shown to catalyse the course of the electrode reaction (according to the cap-pair rule). The multi-step nature of the In(III) ions electroreduction process in each of the systems studied in the chemical step of formation of the active In(III) - ACT complexes in the adsorption layer playing an important role is demonstrated. The presence of the cationic surfactant CTAB increases the dynamics of acceleration of the In(III) ion electroreduction process by ACT, while the presence of the anionic surfactant SDS inhibits this reaction.
