| Abstract | In this work, a detailed kinetic analysis of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on platinum is performed by applying steady and non-steady-state methodologies at stationary and rotating disk electrodes and by comparing experimental results to calculated curves via digital simulations. Results reveal the existence of a complex chemical–electrochemical–chemical–electrochemical initial reaction sequence, a CECE-mechanism, and the possible contribution of a parallel disproportionation process in acid media during the reaction. Under convection-controlled circumstances, the first charge-transfer step would be the rate-determining step (RDS) on bulk electrodes, in agreement with early reports, but at different working conditions other initial steps can become the RDS. Additionally, contrary to the current accepted view, results support the formation of a soluble intermediate in the initial, and fast, chemical reaction, with a short lifetime, compatible with the formation of either the hydroperoxyl radical, HO2... |
