Characterization of a 20 kHz sonoreactor. Part II: analysis of chemical effects by classical and electrochemical methods.
A new electrochemical redox probe has been investigated in order to characterize the local production of radicals during the cavitation events. The results have been compared with those obtained with Fe(CN)6(3-)/Fe(CN)6(4-) (electrochemical probe for local mechanical effects) and classical chemical methods such as iodide and Fricke dosimeters (chemical probes for global effects).
