abstract = "Two boron doped ultrananocristallyne diamond (UNC) electrodes were
manufactured and compared with a standard microcrystalline
commercial electrode, to clarify how their differences may affect
to the production of oxidants in the electrolysis of solutions
containing phosphoric acid or phosphate salts. Effects of the
current density and electrolyte pH were evaluated. Significant
differences were found in the production of oxidants, being the
production of oxidants favored, at high current densities and
alkaline pHs. The effect of the pH was explained in terms of the
higher stability of the peroxodiphosphate anion in comparison with
the monoperox-yphosphate acid produced at low pHs. As well,
because of the improved electrostatic attraction of the anion with
the anode. Despite not exhibiting the largest electrochemical
surface area, the flat UNC electrode shows the best performance
for this process, except for the operation at low current
densities and alkaline pHs in which the porous UNC outperforms it.
Better efficiencies are obtained operating at mild current
densities which was explained in terms of the great significance
of direct processes in the production of oxidants by electrolysis
of phosphoric acid or phosphate solutions.",
