What is the principle under which cyclic voltammetry is used to analyse plating additives?

August 23, 2011

Why are plating additives analyzable by CVS or cyclic voltammetry stripping? As far as I know the organic additives do not participate in the oxid-redox which is the basic working principle of CVS. Please enlighten me on this.

thanks,
