The supersaturated concentration of hydrogen in electrolyzed water obtained from a flow-type electrolytic cell was studied under various electrolysis conditions. The degree of supersaturation was found to decrease as the solution supply rate to the cell increased. The ratio of observed hydrogen concentration to the theoretical hydrogen concentration obtained from the electrochemical equivalent, as calculated from the transfer of charge in the cell, was found to increase with the solution supply rate. The concentration of hydrogen in solution has a maximum at a current density of approximately 0.3 A dm(-2). This maximum was found to be independent of the flow rate, indicating that the hydrogen concentration is related to both the diffusion of dissolved hydrogen from the electrode surface to the bulk solution and hydrogen bubble growth.
