摘要	An electrochemically activated graphite electrode (EAGE) was obtained by a simple and moderate method of anodic potentiostatic polarization. The composition, microstructure, and electrochemical properties of the EAGE were characterized by high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the electrochemical activity and the reversibility for electrode processes of V(II)/V(III) and V(IV)/V(V) couples on the EAGE are significantly improved due to the introduced C=O and COOH groups. The rate constant of charge transfer for the anodic oxidation of V(IV) on the EAGE was determined to be 8.17 x 10(-4) cm s(-1), which is about 20 times larger than the 4.09 x 10(-5) cm s(-1) rate constant on the pristine graphite electrode.
