Titanium carbide (TiC) polycrystalline thin films, obtained by a hybrid chemical vapor deposition/powder flowing technique, were characterized and used to assemble working electrodes. The potential window and the electrochemistry of standard redox couples ([Ru(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ , [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3− ) have been investigated in cyclic voltammetry, demonstrating a behavior similar to glassy carbon electrodes. The quinone (Q)/hydroquinone(H 2 Q) redox couple presented an interesting quasireversible behavior( E p =0.07 mV) , confirmed also for other quinones.
