CPVS - Cyclic Pulse Voltammetric Stripping

General:
CPVS

or

Cyclic Pulse Voltammetric Stripping

is used to de-

termine organic additives in electroplating electrolytes. The CPVS
measuring mode can be set for the exploratory and determination
mode by selecting

.

Description:

For Cyclic Pulse Voltammetric Stripping, the potential of an RDE
(e.g. Pt) is changed between different potentials in pulsed, discrete
steps in a plating bath. The current

i

is measured as a function of

the time

t

. The curves registered in the last cycles are stored and its

peaks can be evaluated using linear or horizontal baselines.
