Lead dioxide coatings on inert substrates such as titanium and carbon now offer new
opportunities for a material known for 150 years. It is now recognised that electrodeposition
allows the preparation of stable coatings with different phase structures and a wide range of
surface morphologies. In addition, substantial modification to the physical properties and
catalytic activities of the coatings are possible through doping and the fabrication of
nanostructured deposits or composites. In addition to applications as a cheap anode material in
electrochemical technology, lead dioxide coatings provide unique possibilities for probing the
dependence of catalytic activity on layer composition and structure (256 references).
