Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the detection field of electrochemical intermediate processes, in particular to a device and method for observing bubble behavior on the electrode surface. Background technique [0002] During many electrochemical reactions, there will be gas participation on the electrode surface, which involves the generation and consumption of bubbles. If a large number of bubbles are formed at a high reaction rate and adhere to the electrode surface, the mass transfer effect on the electrode surface will be hindered, resulting in a decrease in the electrochemical activity of the electrode and affecting the electrochemical performance of the electrode. At present, the process of bubble precipitation on the electrode surface is mainly observed by an optical microscope. The resolution of the optical microscope is limited, and it can only be observed when the size of the bubbles on the electrode surface reaches a micron. In addition, the exist...
