Introduction

Reaction control is very important in electrosynthetic chemistry. Because electron transfer takes place on electrode surface and/or vicinity, that is, electrode interface, the chemical functionality-modification of electrode surface has been intensively studied for this purpose so far [1]. On the other hand, mechanical energies such as ultrasound and centrifugal force cannot drive chemical reactions but control them. From this point of view, the mechanical energy modification of electrode interface has been also developed for the reaction control of electrosynthetic processes especially in the last two decades [2, 3].

Electrosynthesis Under Ultrasound Fields

The many benefits of ultrasound in chemical processes are well known and have been investigated in a variety of chemical fields, but perhaps the most striking influence of ultrasound concerns heterogeneous reaction systems, particularly those with a solid–liquid interfaces where particle size modification, the...
