APPLICATION OF THE SUPERPOSITION PRINCIPLE TO THE STUDY OF CEC, CE, EC AND CATALYTIC MECHANISMS IN CYCLIC CHRONOPOTENTIOMETRY - PART III

In this paper we have obtained the general analytical equations corres ponding to the response of complicated charge transfer processes with coupled homogeneous chemical reactions in cyclic chronopotentiometry b y applying the superposition principle. The analysis of different cycl es of this response can be used to obtain accurate and contrasted valu es of kinetic parameters in each complex reaction scheme analysed. The se parameters are of great interest for the chemist and the biochemist . These equations are also applicable to cyclic derivative chronopoten tiometry which is a very useful method since the response is obtained with peaks in a similar way to cyclic voltammetry but its mathematical treatment is simpler.
