Physics of Electrolytic Gas Evolution

Chemical Physics 2015-06-15 v2 Soft Condensed Matter

Abstract

A brief analysis of the physics and effects of electrolytic gas evolution is presented. Aspects considered include bubble nucleation, growth, and detachment, enhancement of mass and heat transfer, and decrease of apparent electrical conductivity of bubble containing electrolytes. This analysis is mainly oriented to hydrogen/oxygen evolving electrodes.
