Ion transport models for electroanalytical simulation. 1. Theoretical comparison.
Ion transport models are compared by computing the limiting current density of an electrodeposition on a rotating disk electrode for various hypothetical electrolytes. The first ion transport model is the pseudoideal solution model, on which many commercial electroanalytical simulation tools are built. The second, more rigorous model consists of the linear phenomenological equations for which the activity coefficients and Onsager coefficients are calculated locally with the mean spherical approximation (MSA).
