Preferred Label : transition time;
Detailed label : transition time in electroanalytical chemistry;
IUPAC definition : In chronopotentiometry and related techniques, the time that elapses between the instant
at which current is applied and the instant at which the concentration of an electroactive
substance B at the electrode-solution interface becomes indistinguishable from zero.
In experimental practice the latter time is often taken to be the instant at which
the rate of variation of the potential of the indicator electrode attains a maximum
value.;
