Abstract
The electrochemical behavior of boron-doped diamond electrodes in liberating hydrogen and oxygen from aqueous solutions was studied by voltammetry. Compared to platinum, the diamond electrodes gave a much wider potential range over which no significant water decomposition occurred. They are, therefore, suitable substrates for reactions spanning a wide potential range. Diamond electrodes have the further advantage of dimensional and chemical stability, even in very aggressive environments.
