Electrochemical Reduction of Nitrocompound at Zinc Cathode and Surface Morphology

Abstract

Smaller molecules with crystalline and spherical morphologies have diverse applications. When working with nanomaterials, determining the particle size is necessary and crucial. The key topic of research is information on a                        variety of physical attributes, such as size, morphology, surface texture, roughness, and chemical composition of materials. Furthermore, sophisticated sample manipulation techniques used in SEM investigations can yield important details about the crystal morphology at the micro- and nanometer scales.

In order to understand the conductivity and surface shape of the cathode, it is crucial to understand the electrochemical reduction of nitro aromatic compounds to their amine derivative. The measurement of the variation of current and electrode potential with time during the electrolysis is also the important area of research. The biological activity of a nitro aromatic molecule is increased by the particle size variation in the reduction product. The investigation of the biological activity of organic molecules before and after electrolysis is an intriguing topic in the pharmaceutical industry.
