Welcome

Welcome on the website of the Protoelectric Potential Map (PPM), the two dimensional display of unified pH scale and unified redox scale.

PPM in brief:

  • the unified acidity pHabs is defined by the absolute chemical potential of the proton
  • the unified reducity (redox potential) peabs is defined by the absolute chemical potential of the electron
  • both scales are connected by the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER)
  • peabs is plotted vs. pHabs
  • this plot is suitable to compare acidities and reducities of redox- and/or protoacitve species in different media
