abstract = "This paper presents the study of the electrochemical deposition of
Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles on Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) films in
order to improve their electrocatalytic activity and selectivity
for application in nitrate electrochemical reduction. Cyclic
voltammetry measurements evidenced the formation of Cu/Sn alloy
electrodeposited on BDD electrode. The electrodeposited Cu/Sn can
be better visualized by analyzing the dissolution process. By
studying the dissolution peak separately, the dissolution peak of
the Sn was obtained at a more positive potential, when compared
with the dissolution peak of Cu. From the scanning electronic
microscopy (SEM) analysis, the homogeneous distribution of the
Cu/Sn alloys particles on BDD surface with grain size in
nanometric scale was verified. From X-ray diffraction analysis,
two Cu/Sn alloy phases (Cu41Sn11 and Cu10Sn3) were identified for
the electrodeposits obtained at -0.5V and charge of 0.26 C. The
electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate in 0.1 M Britton-Robinson
(BR) buffer solution with pH 9 was analyzed. The BDD electrode
modified with Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles proved to potentiate the
electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate.",
