The evolution of electrogenerated gas bubbles during water electrolysis can significantly hamper the overall process efficiency. Promoting departure electrochemically generated (water) is therefore beneficial. For a single bubble, from electrode surface occurs when buoyancy wins over downward-acting forces (e.g., contact, Marangoni, and electric forces). In this work, dynamics pair H2 produced hydrogen reaction in 0.5 M H2SO4 using dual platinum microelectrode system systematically studied by varying distance cathodic potential. By combining high-speed imaging electrochemical analysis, we demonstrate importance bubble–bubble interactions process. We show that bubble coalescence may lead to substantially earlier as compared effects alone, resulting considerably higher rates at constant However, due continued mass input conservation momentum, repeated events with close drive departed back beyond critical current, which increases spacing. latter leads resumption growth near surface, followed buoyancy-driven departure. While less favorable small spacing, configuration proves be very beneficial larger separations, increasing mean current up 2.4 times under conditions explored study.

The rapid bubble removal from electrodes diminishes the reaction resistance within photoelectrochemical water splitting, and coalescence between bubbles accelerates their detachment. To delve into size effects on dynamics, Marangoni effect is utilized as a noninvasively controlling means of sliding coalescence. study reveals that encounter capillary waves induces A quantitative correlation has been established to elucidate relationship oscillation time wave propagation. Then, undergo damping oscillations due fluid after detaching, characterized by same dimensionless periods.

Understanding the oxygen bubble evolution on electrode surface is important to enhance efficiency of large-scale water decomposition. In this paper, a numerical model for growth bubbles based dissolved flux at boundary proposed, and mechanisms reaction area current are investigated. The results show that diameters calculated from in good agreement with control phase chemical reaction. As region increases, transition time diffusion-controlled reaction-controlled stage becomes longer during growth. concentration maximum microelectrode significantly higher than large surface, which leads steeper gradient between surface. rate increases coefficient decreases faster. diameter 0.06 mA agrees well 0.1 photoelectrochemical splitting experiments.
