Electrode Plating
For the electrodes we used the Screen printed Carbon Electrodes from Pine Instruments. These electrodes needed to be plated in NiSO4 for our purposes.
- Dissolve 0.2629g of NiSO4 in 10mL of nanopure water.
- Stir until dissolved.
- Place the electrode in the solution and apply a voltage of 1V for 20 seconds.
- Let the electrode air dry until there is no more solution present on the electrode.
