The study introduces a mathematical approach based on the second order discrete differentiation method for accurately determining the onset potential of Oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts. Analysis of published results suggests that common approaches like the tangent method or visual estimation may introduce human errors, while the SODDM method leads to comparable results across different researchers and instruments.
For proper and fair comparison of the performance of Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts an un-biased method to determine an onset potential value is needed. Here we report an easy mathematical approach based on the second derivative of linear sweep voltammetry curves, referred to as a second order discrete differentiation method (SODDM) that allows to accurately provide the onset potential. Analysis of the published results showed that the reported values might be affected by an intrinsic human error associated with the application of the most common approaches addressed as a tangent method or those relaying on a visual estimation of the onset potential based on the shape of a linear scan voltammetry (LSV) curve. We have also demonstrated that by using SODDM, electrochemical data collected on different instruments by different researchers leads to comparable results in terms of the ORR onset potential values.
