Abstract

Electrocatalytic oxidation is a promising methodology for carrying out the elimination of organic compounds from wastewater. We investigate the characteristics (electrical and morphological, AFM) of Sb/SnO₂ on glass because we hope to use this as anode material for electrochemical oxidation. The experimental results confirmed that the Sb/SnO₂/glass (ATO) is a good choose for this purpose: it has satisfactory electrical conductibility and remarkable mechanical stability.
