Anode Materials Used in Electrolytic System Containing Organic Compounds and Their Failure Characteristics

In this paper, anode materials used for organic compounds containing aqueous electro- lyte were introduced. Further, their failure characteristics were analyzed in terms of surface fouling and accelerated dissolution. Meanwhile, the strategies for failure prevention, including the optimi- zation of chemical composition and anodic re-activation of electrode, were reviewed in details. Fi- nally, the investigation of anode materials in organic compounds containing electrolyte was also
