Аннотация:At Cd electrodes, electric double-layer structure was studied in solutions of surface-inactive electrolytes, while the adsorption properties were studied in solutions containing surface-active organic cations. Splitting of the adsorption-desorption peak of tetrabutylammonium ions was found at a polished polycrystalline Cd electrode. The splitting was not seen in solutions containing tetrapropyl- or tetraethylammonium ions, nor at a cadmium surface renewed by cutting inside the solution.
