Introduction

Boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes are known for their unique electrochemical properties. They exhibit a wide potential window, low background current, and chemical inertness, making them essential in various sectors. This article delineates their applications and highlights solutions offered by New Frontier Technology.

Applications of BDD Electrode

Water Treatment and Purification

BDD electrodes are widely utilized in water treatment due to their high oxygen overpotential (>2.8V vs. RHE) and capability to generate powerful oxidants, such as hydroxyl radicals. These properties allow effective breakdown of organic pollutants. A typical system operates at current densities up to 100 mA/cm², achieving more than 95% organic content reduction under optimized conditions.

Analytical Sensors

In sensor applications, BDD electrodes provide high sensitivity and selectivity. They are capable of detecting various substances at nanomolar concentrations. Due to their low double-layer capacitance (<10 µF/cm²), BDD electrodes enable precise measurement even in complex matrices. Their stability ensures prolonged usability without significant performance degradation.

Organic Synthesis

The inert surface and broad stability of BDD electrodes facilitate advanced organic synthesis, offering high conversion rates and selectivity. For example, anodic coupling reactions using BDD electrodes can achieve yields above 80% with reaction times reduced by up to 40% compared to traditional methods.

New Frontier Technology Company Solutions
