       [0001]    This application is a United States National Phase Application of International Application PCT/EP2016/000286, filed Feb. 19, 2016, and claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 of German Application 10 2015 002 008.0, filed Feb. 20, 2015, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
     
    
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    The present invention pertains to an electrochemical gas sensor with a housing and with at least two electrodes, wherein the housing has a gas inlet, wherein an acidic, liquid electrolyte is present in the gas sensor, and wherein the electrolyte partly wets the electrode and to an electrolyte for use in such an electrochemical gas sensor. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    Electrochemical gas sensors are generally known. They are typically used to detect various chemical components of gas mixtures. 
         [0004]    The electrolyte used in the sensor is an essential component of such an electrochemical sensor. The electrolyte is in conductive contact with at least one anode and one cathode (electrodes). If the gas to be detected enters into the electrochemical sensor, a reaction typically takes place between the gas, the electrolyte and the material of the electrodes (electrode material). This reaction leads to a measurable current flow between the anode and the cathode of the sensor. This reaction takes place in electrochemical gas sensors at a so-called three-phase boundary, which is formed at the respective electrode (anode and/or cathode) from a solid phase, a liquid phase and a gaseous phase. The solid phase is typically the material of the electrode. The liquid phase is formed by the usually aqueous electrolyte. The gaseous phase is the gas mixture to be analyzed. 
         [0005]    For example, DE 10 2005 020 719 B3 proposes in this connection an electrochemical gas sensor in which the electrodes are wetted with an electrolyte layer. The electrode surface is covered here with the electrolyte extensively but not completely. It is important in this connection that the respective electrode is neither flooded completely by electrolyte, nor does it dry out completely. However, in addition to the difficult manufacturability of such a system, a relatively high susceptibility to fluctuations in the humidity of the air also often arises as a problem in this connection. For example, relatively high humidity of the air may thus lead to an increase in the electrolyte layer thickness. This may even lead to a change in the conductivity of the electrolyte, for example, due to the absorption of water. Such a change in the conductivity is infrequently accompanied by a fluctuation in the measurement performance. The three-phase boundary necessary for the reaction may also increase or decrease now, which in turn may be associated fluctuations in the sensitivity of the sensor. 
         [0006]    Wick systems, which make it possible to transport and store the electrolyte, are frequently used to avoid this. Excess electrolyte on the electrode surfaces can be removed here from the electrodes through the pore system of the wick. Conversely, additional electrolyte can be made available from the wick system in case of an electrolyte deficiency for the formation of an optimal three-phase boundary. 
         [0007]    However, another problem is in this connection that the absorption of the electrolyte may be greatly inhibited by the frequently hydrophobic properties of the electrode surfaces or even of the wick material. The measurement properties of such a system are possibly greatly limited in certain areas of the surrounding area. The wetting of electrode surfaces plays a role in other technical fields as well. Thus, to improve the wetting of electrode surfaces in tetraethylammonium batteries, U.S. Pat. No. 6,280,883 B1 proposes the use of an electrolyte composition that contains a conductive salt, on the one hand, and a compound called surfactant salt, on the other hand. However, the goal is to cover the electrodes with electrolyte as rapidly and completely as possible during the manufacture. 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0008]    Based on this, an object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved electrochemical gas sensor. In particular, an improved electrolyte shall be provided for such an electrochemical gas sensor. Both the electrochemical gas sensor and the electrolyte shall be able to be manufactured as cost-effectively and simply as possible. 
         [0009]    To accomplish this object, the present invention provides an electrochemical gas sensor as well as an electrolyte. 
         [0010]    According to the invention, an electrochemical gas sensor is provided with a housing and with at least two electrodes. The housing has a gas inlet. An acidic, liquid electrolyte is present in the gas sensor. The electrolyte partly wets the electrode. The present invention makes provisions for the electrolyte to contain an additive, wherein the additive contains at least one surfactant. 
         [0011]    An electrochemical gas sensor is typically an electrochemical cell according to the invention. The electrochemical cell has a housing, in which at least one working electrode and a counterelectrode are typically arranged. It is, of course, conceivable that the gas sensor also has more than two electrodes. The housing is filled at least partly with an electrolyte. The electrolyte may be contained either directly in the housing or in a wick system. The working electrode and the counterelectrode are arranged in the housing such that they are at least partly covered with the electrolyte. It is conceivable, for example, that the electrodes are part of the wick system or are directly in connection with same. It is also conceivable in an especially simple embodiment variant without wick system that the electrolyte is filled directly into the housing and the electrodes are at least partly dipped into the electrolyte. In any case, the gas inlet in the housing is used to enable the gas to be analyzed to enter into the gas sensor and to reach the electrode. It is frequently useful if the gas sensor has, in addition, a gas outlet, through which gases formed during the reaction or excess gases can again leave the housing. A pneumatic connection of the gas sensor to a pump system, which pumps a gas sample to be analyzed through the gas sensor, is also conceivable. It is, however, obviously also conceivable that excess gases can leave the gas sensor again through the gas inlet as well. 
         [0012]    In addition, the electrochemical gas sensor may also have a wick system, which is used to transport the electrolyte to the electrodes as optimally as possible, so that it is ensured that the electrodes are always correspondingly wetted with the electrolyte. It is conceivable in this connection that the electrolyte is in contact exclusively with the wick system and with the wetted part of the electrode surfaces. It is favorable in this connection if the major part of the electrolyte is arranged in the wick system. The electrolyte is arranged indirectly in the housing in this case, namely, in the wick system, which is, in turn, arranged in the housing. 
         [0013]    An electrolyte is typically a liquid medium (a liquid), which can develop an electrolytic conductivity based on the ions contained in the electrolyte. If a corresponding chemical reaction takes place in the electrochemical cell, an electrically conductive connection can be established between the electrodes by means of this electrolyte. Typical components of such an electrolyte are a solvent and a conductive salt. It is especially favorable if the electrolyte is an acidic liquid, i.e., an acidic, liquid medium. An acidic liquid (an acidic, liquid medium) is a liquid that can act as a proton donor. In a preferred embodiment variant, the electrolyte is an at least strongly acidic, liquid medium (at least strongly acidic liquid). An at least strongly acidic, liquid medium is defined here such that the liquid medium is either strongly acidic or very strongly acidic. It is thus seen that the electrolyte may be both a strongly acidic liquid and a very strongly acidic liquid. A strongly acidic liquid (strongly acidic, liquid medium) is typically a liquid with a pKs value of &lt;3.75. A very strongly acidic liquid (very strongly acidic, liquid medium) is typically a liquid with a pKs value of &lt;0. The electrolyte may be selected, for example, from the group containing HClO 4 , HCl, H 2 SO 4 , HNO 3 , H 3 PO 4 , HCOOH, preferably HClO 4  or H 2 SO 4 , as well as aqueous solutions with different concentrations and mixtures thereof. It is also conceivable that the electrolyte is selected from the group containing sulfurous acid, nitric acid and nitrous acid. In other words, the electrolyte may be selected from the group containing sulfuric acid, perchloric acid, sulfurous acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, nitrous acid, phosphoric acid, as well as mixtures of the aforementioned acids. In a preferred embodiment variant, the electrochemical gas sensor is an electrochemical gas sensor with a housing and with at least two electrodes, wherein the housing has a gas inlet and a gas outlet, wherein an acidic—preferably strongly acidic or very strongly acidic—liquid electrolyte is present in the gas sensor, wherein the electrolyte wets the electrodes at least partly and wherein the electrolyte contains an additive, wherein the additive contains at least one surfactant. It is especially preferred if the liquid electrolyte is either sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) or perchloric acid (HClO 4 ). 
         [0014]    The electrodes may consist, for example, of a metallic material or of a carbon compound. It is also conceivable that the electrodes are applied to one or more polymer materials or to glass fibers or to ceramic compounds or the like, but polymer materials are preferred. The wick system may also consist of a polymer material. These polymer materials often have hydrophobic surfaces. It is especially advantageous if both the wick system and the electrodes and/or the carrier material of the electrodes have a certain porosity. The electrolyte may completely or partly fill the pores of the respective material. 
         [0015]    It is especially favorable if the electrolyte partly wets the electrodes. A partial wetting is defined in connection with the present invention such that the electrolyte wets the surface of the electrode such that a three-phase boundary can form between the electrolyte, the electrode and a gas to be analyzed. In other words, the material of the electrode represents the solid phase of the three-phase boundary, and a section of the electrode surface, which is covered (wetted) with the liquid electrolyte adjoins a section of the electrode surface that is not covered with the liquid electrolyte but is directly in contact with the gas sample. The three-phase boundary will then develop at precisely the location at which these two sections of the electrode surface adjoin one another. It is thus seen that it is especially advantageous if the electrode is neither covered completely by a liquid film nor does to dry out completely. 
         [0016]    A special advantage of the present invention is that the formation of the desired three-phase boundary can be facilitated and supported by the additive according to the present invention. The additive may also contribute to the three-phase boundary to remain stable after its establishment even under fluctuating ambient conditions. The loss of the electrolytic contact of the electrode with the electrochemical cell can be prevented, on the one hand, from being lost when the gas sensor is exposed, for example, to a very dry environment and/or when the electrolyte slightly dries up or dries out. On the other hand, it can be ensured that the analyte (the gas sample to be analyzed) can always come into sufficient contact with the electrode and with the electrolyte, so that the electrochemical reaction can take place reliably. Fluctuations in the environmental effects—for example, high temperatures or high humidity of the air—thus affect the stability of the three-phase boundary and hence the measuring quality of the electrochemical sensor to a very low extent. Another advantage of the additive according to the present invention is that an especially good transport of the electrolyte is also made possible within a wick system, if such a system is present, in the electrochemical sensor by means of the surfactant or surfactant contained in the additive. 
         [0017]    An additive is defined in the sense of the present invention as a substance or a mixture of substances that is added to the electrolyte. The additive may either consist entirely of a single substance or be a mixture of a plurality of different substances. The additive is preferably suitable for mediating and regulating the wetting of the electrode surface. It is especially favorable in this connection if the additive contains a surfactant. A surfactant is typically an amphiphilic compound containing at least one hydrophobic moiety and a hydrophilic moiety, the hydrophobic group (hydrophobic moiety) is usually a hydrocarbon chain. As an alternative, the hydrophobic moiety may also be a dimethylsiloxane chain or a perfluorinated carbon chain. The hydrophilic group is typically either a negatively or positively charged (hydratable) head group. It is also conceivable that the head group is a neutral, polar head group. 
         [0018]    It is favorable in this connection if the additive is not active electrochemically, i.e., the additive does not itself participate in the redox processes in the electrochemical cell. It is preferably neither oxidized nor reduced, and no current flow is triggered by it over the electrode. In particular, the surfactant does not participate in the electrochemical reaction that takes place in the electrochemical cell, i.e., the gas sensor. In addition, it is favorable if the additive and especially the surfactant is chemically inert. The surfactant is advantageously configured such that it can influence the viscosity and the surface tension of the electrolyte and can thus modify the creeping capacity—i.e., the ability to penetrate into pores—of the electrolyte in question. The surfactant can be used in this manner, for example, to improve the creeping of the electrolyte into pores of the electrode material and of the wick system. 
         [0019]    It is conceivable in a first embodiment variant that the additive consists entirely of the surfactant. As an alternative, it is also conceivable that the additive is a mixture of a plurality of components, wherein at least one component is a surfactant. Such a mixture may also contain various other substances in addition to the surfactant. It is also conceivable that the mixture contains a plurality of different surfactants. It is, of course, also conceivable that the mixture contains both a plurality of different surfactants and additional other substances, which cannot be classified as belonging to the surfactants. 
         [0020]    It is conceivable in another embodiment variant that at least one surfactant is a halogenated surfactant, preferably a fluorinated surfactant. A halogenated surfactant is a surfactant that contains at least one atom from the seventh main group of the Periodic Table, especially at least one atom that is selected from the group containing F, Cl, Br, and I. Especially preferred are fluorinated surfactants, i.e., surfactant that contains at least one fluorine atom. However, chlorinated surfactants are, of course, also conceivable. For example, the surfactant may contain at least one polyfluorinated or perfluorinated alkyl chain. A perfluorinated alkyl chain is defined in the sense of the present invention as an alkyl chain in which all hydrogen atoms are replaced by fluorine atoms. A polyfluorinated alkyl chain is defined in the sense of the present invention as an alkyl chain in which two or more, but not all hydrogen atoms are replaced by fluorine atoms. It is also conceivable that the fluorinated surfactant contains a monofluorinated alkyl chain, i.e., an alkyl chain in which a hydrogen atom is replaced by a fluorine atom. It is preferred if the fluorinated surfactant is a surfactant with a polyfluorinated or monofluorinated alkyl chain. Polyfluorinated surfactants are especially favorable. For example, the hydrophobic moiety of the surfactant may be configured as a polyfluorinated alkyl chain. If the surfactant is a fluorinated surfactant, for example, the chemical inertness of the electrolyte additives to concentrated acids and to oxidative stress can be ensured especially well. It is necessary, especially if the electrolyte consists, for example, of sulfuric acid, that the additive have this inertness and not be decomposed or reacted by the electrolyte. 
         [0021]    It is conceivable in another embodiment variant that at least one surfactant is a halogen-free surfactant, preferably a fluorine-free surfactant. A special advantage of halogen-free, especially fluorine-free surfactants is that they frequently have better biodegradability than, for example, fluorinated compounds. A halogen-free surfactant is a surfactant that contains no atoms of the seventh main group. A fluorine-free surfactant is a surfactant that contains no fluorine atoms. 
         [0022]    If the additive is a mixture of different surfactants, or if the additive contains a plurality of different surfactants, it is also conceivable in one variant that the additive contains both halogenated and halogen-free surfactants. 
         [0023]    In any case, it is advantageous if at least one surfactant contains a counterion, which is selected from among heterocyclic cations, ammonium ions, H +  ions, alkali or alkaline earth ions, HSO 4   −  ions or H 2 PO 4   −  ions, CF 3 —SO 3   −  ions, C 2 F 4 HSO 3   −  ions, CF 3 —COO −  ions, and (F 3 C—SO 2 ) 2 N −  ions. It is favorable in this connection that the counterion be selected from the group containing hydrogen sulfate (HSO 4   −  ions) and dihydrogen phosphate (H 2 PO 4   −  ions), if the surfactant is a cationic surfactant. It is further advantageous that the counterion be selected from the group containing heterocyclic cations, ammonium ions, alkali or alkaline earth ions if the surfactant is an anionic surfactant. For example, the counterion to an anionic surfactant may be selected from among pyridinium ions, H +  ions, NH 4   +  ions, primary ammonium ions, secondary ammonium ions, tertiary ammonium ions, quaternary ammonium ions, Na + , K +  or Li +  ions. It is thus seen that the ammonium ions used as counterions may be both ammonium ions in the strict sense, i.e., compounds according to the formula NH 4   + , and primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary ammonium ions. Primary ammonium ions are preferably mono-alkylammonium ions. Secondary ammonium ions are preferably di-alkylammonium ions. Tertiary ammonium ions are preferably tri-alkylammonium ions. Quaternary ammonium ions are preferably tetraalkylammonium ions. The alkyl groups of the respective ammonium ions may have—independently from one another—a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 carbon atoms. For example, tetraethylammonium ((CH 3 —CH 2 ) 4 N + ) is thus conceivable as a quaternary ammonium ion. Tetramethylammonium, trimethylammonium, dimethylammonium, tetrapropylammonium, tripropylammonium, tetrabutylammonium and/or tributylammonium are also conceivable, as an alternative, but, of course, not exhaustively. In any case, ammonium ions according to the present invention correspond to the general formula ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. A primary ammonium ion is defined here as a compound for which three of the variable s, p, q, r have the value 0 and the fourth is selected from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. A secondary ammonium ion is defined as a compound for which two of the variables s, p, q, r have the value 0 and the other two are selected independently from one another from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. A tertiary ammonium ion is defined as a compound for which one of the variables s, p, q, r has the value 0 and the other three are selected independently from one another from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. The alkyl chains may, furthermore, also be poly- or perhalogenated alkyl chains. 
         [0024]    Pyridinium ions, which are used as counterion for an anionic surfactant, may be either substituted or unsubstituted pyridinium ions. 
         [0025]    Further conceivable heterocyclic cations are heterocyclic rings with a ring size of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 ring atoms, wherein the ring atoms are carbon atoms and wherein at least one of the carbon ring atoms is replaced by a hetero atom, which is selected from among nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur or phosphorus. Heterocyclic ring systems that consist of two such heterocyclic rings linked to one another are also conceivable. For example, it is conceivable that the heterocyclic cation is selected from the group containing aziridinium ions, oxiranium ions, thiiranium ions, azirinium ions, oxireneium ions, thiirenium ions, azetidinium ions, oxetanium ions, theitanium ions, azetium ions, oxetium ions, thietium ions, azolidninium ions, oxolanium ions, thiolanium ions, azolium ions, oxolium ions, thiolium ions, azinanium ions, oxanium ions, thianium ions, azinium ions, oxinium ions, thiinium ions, azepanium ions, oxepanium ions, thepanium ions, azepinium ions, oxepinium ions, thiepinium ions, pyrazolium ions, imidazolium ions, benzimidalium ions, imidazolinium ions, indolium ions, quinolinium ions, isoquinolinium ions, purinium ions, pyrimidinium ions, oxazolium ions, thiazolium ions, thiazinium ions, and preferably pyridinium ions. However, other counterions are, of course, also conceivable. If the additive contains a plurality of different surfactants, it is, of course, conceivable that all surfactants have the same counterion and also that the surfactants have different counterions. 
         [0026]    It is conceivable in the sense of the present invention that at least one of the surfactants is an anionic surfactant. An anionic surfactant is, for example, a surfactant that has a negatively charged head group. For example, such a surfactant may contain a carbonate, sulfate, phosphate or sulfonate group as the head group. Typical representatives of such anionic surfactants are soaps, alkylbenzene sulfonates, alkyl sulfonates, alkyl sulfate as well as alkyl ether sulfates. It is also conceivable that the additive has a sulfonic acid, especially an alkylsulfonic acid, as a surfactant. It is conceivable in this connection, especially in an aqueous medium, that the sulfonic acid group forms the head group of the surfactant and is deprotonated in a suitable medium, so that it occurs as an anionic alkyl sulfonate with an H ±  ion as the counterion. It thus proved to be especially advantageous in this connection if at least one surfactant is an alkyl sulfonate. Alkyl sulfonates typically consist of a linear alkyl chain, with which a sulfonate group is terminally coupled. It is especially favorable in this connection if the alkyl chain of the alkyl sulfonate has a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 carbon atoms, preferably 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 carbon atoms. Furthermore, it is advantageous if at least one surfactant contains a counterion that is selected from among heterocyclic cations, H + , Na +  ions, K +  ions, Li +  ions or ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N +  ions, in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. 
         [0027]    Such an anionic surfactant may be both a fluorinated—poly- or perfluorinated—surfactant and a halogen-free—especially fluorine-free—surfactant. Perfluorinated compounds may be, for example, perfluorobutanesulfonic acid, perfluoropentanesulfonic acid, perfluorohexanesulfonic acid, perfluorooctane sulfone acid, perfluorononanesulfonic acid, perfluorodecanesulfonic acid, perfluoroundecanesulfonic acid, perfluorododecanesulfonic acid, or the corresponding sulfonates, i.e., salts of these acids. 
         [0028]    At least one surfactant according to the present invention is therefore a surfactant corresponding to Formula I in one exemplary embodiment: 
         [0000]      (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )R1  Formula I
 
         [0000]    in which n={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}, m={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}, R1 is selected from the group H + , Na + , K + , Li + , as well as ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N +  ions, in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Preferred are n={4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12} and m={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13}. Also preferred is s=p=q=r with s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4}, and especially preferred is s=p=q=r with s={1, 2, 3}. 
         [0029]    If the anionic surfactant is a fluorinated surfactant, it proved to be advantageous if at least one surfactant is a polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid or the salt of a polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid. It is conceivable in any case that the surfactant is a surfactant containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 or 25 fluorine atoms. Preferred is a polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 or 17 fluorine atoms. The alkyl chain of the polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid or of the polyfluoro-alkyl sulfonate may have a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 carbon atoms. If the surfactant occurs as a salt, it is conceivable, for example, that at least one surfactant is a polyfluoro-alkyl sulfonate with a counterion that is selected from H + , Na + , K + , Li + , NH 4   +  and primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary ammonium ions. The primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary ammonium ions correspond here, as was already described above, to the formula ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. It is conceivable, for example, that the surfactant is a polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 fluorine atoms, for example, hexafluoroalkyl-2-methylsulfonic acid. 
         [0030]    It is also conceivable that the surfactant is a polyfluoro-alkyl-sulfonic acid containing 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 fluorine atoms, for example, tridecafluorooctylsulfonic acid. It is thus also conceivable that the surfactant is a polyfluorooctyl sulfonate with a counterion that is selected from among H + , Na +  ions, K +  ions, Li +  ions, tetraalkylammonium ions, trialkylammonium ions or dialkylammonium ions, especially selected from among H + , Na +  ions, K +  ions, Li +  ions or (CH 3 —CH 2 ) 4 N +  ions. 
         [0031]    Perfluorooctylsulfonic acid is also conceivable as a surfactant in yet another embodiment variant. 
         [0032]    In any case, a poly- or perfluorinated anionic surfactant according to the present invention may be a compound corresponding to the formula (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )Na + , in which n and m are defined as above, preferably n={4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}, namely, a compound that is selected from the group containing: Sodium butylmonofluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium difluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium trifluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium tetrafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium pentafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium hexafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium heptafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium octafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium nonafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium monofluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium difluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium trifluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium tetrafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium pentafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium hexafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium heptafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium octafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium nonafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium decafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium undecafluoropentyl sulfonate, sodium monofluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium difluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium trifluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium tetrafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium pentafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium hexafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium heptafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium octafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium nonafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium decafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium undecafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium dodecafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium tridecafluorohexyl sulfonate, sodium monofluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium difluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium trifluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium tetrafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium pentafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium hexafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium heptafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium octafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium nonafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium decafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium undecafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium dodecafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium tridecafluoroheptyl sulfonate, sodium

         [0036]    It is obvious that corresponding to the statements made above, the respective corresponding polyfluorosulfonic acids for the polyfluorosulfonates mentioned may also be a component of the additive, namely, especially if the counterion is H + . 
         [0037]    It is also conceivable in this connection that at least one surfactant is an anionic, fluorinated surfactant, which has a perfluorinated hexylene or octylene group, an ethylene spacer and a sulfonate group as a head group. The surfactant thus may also be a perfluoroalkylsulfonic acid or a perfluoroalkyl sulfonate with a spacer, preferably with an ethylene spacer. In particular, it is conceivable in this connection that the surfactant is one of the above-mentioned surfactants corresponding to one of the formulas (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )Na + , (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )K + , (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )Li +  or (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, with n and m defined as above, preferably n={4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}, wherein an ethylene spacer is arranged between the fluorinated alkyl chain and the sulfonate head of the surfactant. 
         [0038]    Polyfluorinated surfactants corresponding to one of the formulas (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )Na + , (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )K + , (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3   − )Li +  or (C n F (2n+1)-m H m —SO 3 —) ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, in which n={4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12} and m={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24}, proved to be especially favorable. It is especially favorable in this connection if, in addition, (2n+1−m)={3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17). The position of the H and F atoms on the alkyl chain of the respective surfactant is freely selectable. 
         [0039]    Furthermore, it may also be advantageous if the additive is a mixture of an anionic surfactant and at least one additional component. For example, the additive may have a nonionic surfactant in addition to the anionic surfactant. It is conceivable, e.g., that the additive contains a fluorinated surfactant, which contains a perfluorinated hexylene group, an ethylene spacer and a sulfonic acid as a head group, as well as polyethylene glycol (PEG) as another component. In any case, it is conceivable here as well that the polyfluoroalkylsulfonic acid occurs as polyfluoroalkyl sulfonate. A counterion that is selected from H + , Na + , K + , Li +  or ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, may likewise be used as a counterion here. 
         [0040]    In another exemplary embodiment, at least one surfactant is a halogen-free anionic corresponding to Formula II: 
         [0000]      (C n H 2+1 —SO 3 )R1  Formula II
 
         [0000]    in which n={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12). R1 is selected from the group comprising H + , Na + , K + , Li +  or ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. It is preferred in this connection if n={4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}. 
         [0041]    It is thus seen that it is advantageous if at least one surfactant is selected from among sodium 1-butyl sulfonate, sodium 1-pentyl sulfonate, sodium 1-hexyl sulfonate, sodium 1-heptyl sulfonate, sodium 1-octyl sulfonate, sodium 1-nonyl sulfonate, sodium 1-decyl sulfonate, sodium 1-undecyl sulfonate, sodium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, sodium isobutyl sulfonate, sodium isopentyl sulfonate, sodium isohexyl sulfonate, sodium isoheptyl sulfonate, sodium isooctyl sulfonate, sodium isononyl sulfonate, sodium isodecyl sulfonate, sodium isoundecyl sulfonate, sodium isododecyl sulfonate, potassium 1-butyl sulfonate, potassium 1-pentyl sulfonate, potassium 1-hexyl sulfonate, potassium 1-heptyl sulfonate, potassium 1-octyl sulfonate, potassium 1-nonyl sulfonate, potassium 1-decyl sulfonate, potassium 1-undecyl sulfonate, potassium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, potassium isobutyl sulfonate, potassium isopentyl sulfonate, potassium isohexyl sulfonate, potassium isoheptyl sulfonate, potassium isooctyl sulfonate, potassium isononyl sulfonate, potassium isodecyl sulfonate, potassium isoundecyl sulfonate, potassium isododecyl sulfonate, preferably from among sodium 1-butyl sulfonate, sodium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, sodium 1-isobutyl sulfonate, sodium 1-isododecyl sulfonate, potassium 1-butyl sulfonate, potassium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, potassium 1-isobutyl sulfonate, potassium 1-isododecyl sulfonate, especially preferably from among sodium 1-butyl sulfonate, sodium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, potassium 1-butyl sulfonate, potassium 1-dodecyl sulfonate or the corresponding lithium, ammonium as well as di-, tri- or tetraalkylammonium compounds of the compounds mentioned. 
         [0042]    It is thus seen that the anionic surfactant is preferably an alkane sulfonate, which has a chain length of 4-12 carbon atoms and which has a sodium or potassium ion as a counterion. 
         [0043]    Halogen-free surfactants with an Li +  ion or with an ion corresponding to the formula ((C s H 2s+1 )(C p H 2p+1 )(C q H 2q+1 )(C r H 2r+1 ))N + , in which s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, p={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, q={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and r={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, are, of course also conceivable as counterions. A halogen-free, anionic surfactant according to the present invention may therefore also be selected from the group containing lithium 1-butyl sulfonate, lithium 1-pentyl sulfonate, lithium 1-hexyl sulfonate, lithium 1-heptyl sulfonate, lithium 1-octyl sulfonate, lithium 1-nonyl sulfonate, lithium 1-decyl sulfonate, lithium 1-undecyl sulfonate, lithium 1-dodecyl sulfonate, lithium isobutyl

         [0044]    In other aspects, an anionic surfactant according to the present invention may be an alkylbenzene sulfonate, an alkyl sulfate or an alkyl ether sulfate. 
         [0045]    It is conceivable in another embodiment that at least one surfactant is a cationic surfactant. Typical representatives of cationic surfactants are quaternary ammonium compounds. Salts of long-chain primary amines may also represent such cationic surfactants. It is especially favorable in the course of the present invention if the cationic surfactant is an ammonium compound, preferably a quaternary ammonium compound, especially preferably a tetraalkylammonium compound. The alkyl chains of such a tetraalkylammonium compound are preferably linear alkyl groups. It is especially favorable here if at least one alkyl group has a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 or 20 carbon atoms. For example, at least one surfactant according to the present invention may be a surfactant corresponding to Formula III

s={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20},

wherein R2 is selected from the group containing HSO 4   − , H 2 PO 4   − , CF 3 —SO 3   − , C 2 F 2 HSO 3   − , CF 3 —COO − . R2 is preferably selected from among HSO 4   −  and H 2 PO 4   − , and is preferably HSO 4   − .
 
         [0046]    It is thus seen that a cationic surfactant, which is a cationic ammonium compound, may be a primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary ammonium compound. A primary ammonium compound is defined here as a compound for which three of the variables s, p, q, r have the value 0 and the fourth one is selected from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}. A secondary ammonium compound is defined as a compound for which two of the variables s, p, q, r have the value 0 and the other two are selected, independently from one another, from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}. A tertiary ammonium compound is defined as a compound for which one of the variables s, p, q, r has the value 0 and the other three are selected, independently from one another, from {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}.t is seen that it is especially favorable if such a cationic surfactant is an ammonium compound in which at least one of the alkyl chains is markedly longer than the other groups that are bound to the nitrogen. The long alkyl chain forms the hydrophobic moiety of the surfactant, while the nitrogen atom with the short chains forms the hydrophilic moiety of the surfactant. It is thus favorable if at least one of the following conditions applies to a compound corresponding to Formula III or to a compound corresponding to the following Formulas IIIa, IIIb, IIIc, IIId, IIId′, IIIe, IIIe′:
       a) s+p+q+1≦r, and/or   b) at least two of the values s, p, q, r are selected from {0, 1, 2} and at least one of the values s, p, q, r is selected from {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}.       
 
         [0049]    In any case, it is especially favorable if the ammonium compound has at least two alkyl groups. It is especially favorable in this connection if these two alkyl groups have a length of at least two carbon atoms. At least one of the alkyl groups especially preferably has a length of at least five carbon atoms. An ammonium compound according to the present invention is thus preferably a compound corresponding to Formula IIIa

         [0050]    It is especially favorable if the alkyl groups are, independently from one another, linear carbon chains with a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 or 18 carbon atoms, and preferably with a length of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 carbon atoms. It is, of course, also conceivable that the ammonium compound has three or more alkyl groups with a corresponding length. In other words, an ammonium compound according to the present invention is, for example, a secondary, tertiary or quaternary ammonium compound corresponding to Formula IIIb

         [0051]    It was, however, surprisingly found to be especially advantageous if the ammonium compound has at least two methyl groups. It is especially favorable in this connection if the ammonium compound has a quaternary ammonium compound that contains at least two methyl groups. In other words, if the quaternary ammonium compound is a tetraalkylammonium compound, at least two of the alkyl groups of the tetraalkylammonium compound have a length of only one carbon atom. It is especially preferred in this connection if the ammonium compound has even three methyl groups and if the fourth alkyl group has a length of two or more, preferably at least four or more carbon atoms. Such a tetraalkylammonium compound according to the present invention corresponds to the Formula IIIc

         [0052]    If at least one surfactant of the additive according to the present invention is a cationic surfactant, it is advantageous if a hydrogen sulfate is used as the counterion for this surfactant. It is seen that it is especially favorable if the cationic surfactant is a hydrogen sulfate salt of a quaternary ammonium compound. A typical example of such a surfactant is, e.g., dodecyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate. The use of hydrogen sulfate salts is especially advantageous if the liquid medium is sulfuric acid or perchloric acid and preferably sulfuric acid. A surfactant according to the present invention now corresponds, for example, to Formula IIId

         [0053]    It is also conceivable that dihydrogen phosphate is used as the counterion. Another preferred example of a surfactant according to the present invention in this connection is dodecyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate. It is therefore likewise conceivable that the cationic surfactant is a phosphate salt, especially a dihydrogen phosphate salt, of a quaternary ammonium compound, e.g., a tetraalkylammonium dihydrogen phosphate. A surfactant according to the present invention now corresponds, for example, to Formula IIIe

         [0054]    It is thus seen that a cationic surfactant according to the present invention, which has hydrogen sulfate as the counterion, may be selected from the group containing ethyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, diethydimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, butylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, pentylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, hexylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylethyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, butyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dibutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, pentylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, hexylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylbutyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, pentyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dipentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, hexylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylpentyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, hexyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dihexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylhexyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, diheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octylheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonylheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylheptyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dioctyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonyloctyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decyloctyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecyloctyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecyloctyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dinonyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decylnonyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecylnonyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylnonyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, didecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecyldecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecyldecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, diundecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecylundecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, dodecyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, and didodecyldimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate. 
         [0055]    Especially preferred here are, for example, ethyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, butyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, pentyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, hexyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, heptyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, octyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, nonyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, decyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, undecyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate, and dodecyltrimethylammonium hydrogen sulfate. 
         [0056]    Further, it is seen that a cationic surfactant according to the present invention, which has dihydrogen phosphate as the counterion, may be selected from the group containing ethyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, diethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, butylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, pentylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, hexylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylethyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, butyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dibutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, pentylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, hexylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylbutyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, pentyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dipentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, hexylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylpentyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, hexyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dihexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptylhexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octylhexylmethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonylhexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylhexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylhexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylhexyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, diheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octylheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonylheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylheptyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dioctyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonyloctyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decyloctyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecyloctyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecyloctyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dinonyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decylnonyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecylnonyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylnonyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, didecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecyldecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecyldecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, diundecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecylundecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, dodecyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, and didodecyldimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate. Especially preferred here are ethyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, butyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, pentyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, hexyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, heptyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, octyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, nonyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, decyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, undecyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate, and dodecyltrimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate. 
         [0057]    If the additive is a mixture of a plurality of surfactants, it is also conceivable that one of the surfactants is a nonionic surfactant. For example, such a nonionic surfactant may be selected from the group containing fatty alcohol ethoxylates, alkyl phenol ethoxylates, as well as sorbitan fatty acid esters, alkyl polyglucosides (APG) and N-methylglucamides (GA). Typical representatives of the fatty alcohol ethoxylates are, for example, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polypropylene glycol. It is, of course, also conceivable that such a fatty alcohol ethoxylate is a polyalkylene glycol with a longer alkyl chain. Block copolymers from different fatty alcohol ethoxylates are also conceivable. Furthermore, it is also conceivable that the additive contains glycol as an additional component. 
         [0058]    It is conceivable corresponding to the present invention for all the above-described embodiments that the additive contains either one or a plurality of these surfactants. It is thus conceivable, for example, that the additive is a mixture of nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant, where the nonionic surfactant is an isoalkyl PEG and wherein the anionic surfactant is an alkyl sulfonate. 
         [0059]    Further, it is advantageous for all embodiment variants if the surfactant of the additive and/or the additive is contained in the electrolyte at a concentration of at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, preferably at a concentration of at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, especially preferably at a concentration of at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mmol/L, especially preferably at a concentration of at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L, and especially preferably at a concentration of 20 mmol/L+5 mmol/L. A surfactant according to the present invention may therefore be contained in the electrolyte of the gas sensor at a concentration of at least and including 0.01 mmol/L, at least and including 0.1 mmol/L, at least and including 2 mmol/L, at least and including 15 mmol/L or at least and including 20 mmol/L. Furthermore, the surfactant according to the present invention may be contained in the electrolyte of the gas sensor at a concentration of at most and including 2 mol/L, at most and including 1 mol/L, at most and including 500 mmol/L, at most and including 50 mmol/L or at most 20 mmol/L. 
         [0060]    It is thus seen that it is also conceivable that the surfactant of the additive and/or the additive may be present in the electrolyte at a concentration of at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mol/L, at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L, at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 20 mmol/L, at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mol/L, at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L, at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and most and including 20 mmol/L, at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L, at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 20 mmol/L, at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mmol/L, at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 20 mmol/L, at least and including 20 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, at least and including 20 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, at least and including 20 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mol/L, at least and including 20 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L or at least and including 20 mmol/L and at most and including 25 mmol/L. 
         [0061]    If the additive according to the present invention consists entirely of the surfactant, it is correspondingly advantageous if the additive is contained in the electrolyte at a concentration of at least and including 0.01 mmol/L and at most and including 2 mol/L, preferably at a concentration of at least and including 0.1 mmol/L and at most and including 1 mol/L, especially preferably at a concentration of at least and including 2 mmol/L and at most and including 500 mmol/L, especially preferably at a concentration of at least and including 15 mmol/L and at most and including 50 mmol/L, and especially preferably at a concentration of 20 mmol/L±5 mmol/L. 
         [0062]    If the additive contains a mixture of a plurality of surfactants, it is conceivable both that each of the surfactants is present at the above-mentioned concentration and that the mixture itself is present at the above-mentioned concentration. It is, of course, also conceivable that an additive, which has a mixture of a plurality of surfactants, is present at the above-mentioned concentration. The additive may now consist entirely of this mixture or have additional components. 
         [0063]    In another aspect, the present invention pertains to an electrolyte for use in an electrochemical gas sensor corresponding to one of the above claims, wherein the electrolyte has a mixture of an acidic, liquid medium, which has an electrical conductivity, and of an additive, and wherein the additive has at least one surfactant. 
         [0064]    Typical components of the electrolyte are, as was already described, a solvent and a conductive salt. It is especially favorable if the electrolyte is an acidic liquid, i.e., an acidic, liquid medium. The electrolyte may be both a strongly acidic, liquid medium and a very strongly acidic, liquid medium. The electrolyte may be selected, for example, from the group containing HClO 4 , HCl, H 2 SO 4 , HNO 3 , H 3 PO 4 , HCOOH, preferably HClO 4  or H 2 SO 4 . It is also conceivable that the electrolyte is selected from the group containing sulfurous acid, nitric acid and nitrous acid. Mixtures of different acids are, of course, conceivable as well. In other words, the electrolyte may be selected from the group containing sulfuric acid, perchloric acid, sulfurous acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, nitrous acid, phosphoric acid, as well as mixtures of the aforementioned acids. Provisions are made in a preferred embodiment variant for the liquid medium to be a strong acid, a very strong acid, sulfuric acid or perchloric acid. It is especially preferred if the liquid medium is a very strong acid, especially sulfuric acid. It is also conceivable that the liquid medium is an organic acid. 
         [0065]    In a first variant, the present invention provides for an electrolyte for use in an electrochemical gas sensor corresponding to one of the above claims, wherein the electrolyte is a mixture of an at least strongly acidic, liquid medium, which has an electrical conductivity, and an additive, and wherein the additive contains at least one surfactant and wherein at least one surfactant is an anionic surfactant. Such a surfactant may be either a fluorinated surfactant or a halogen-free, anionic surfactant. It is conceivable, for example, that at least one surfactant is a fluorinated anionic surfactant, preferably a polyfluoroalkylsulfonic acid or the salt of a polyfluoroalkylsulfonic acid. For example, the fluorinated anionic surfactant may be a polyfluoroalkylsulfonic acid, which is selected from among perfluorobutanesulfonic acid, tridecafluorooctylsulfonic acid, and hexafluoroalkyl-2-methylsulfonic acid. As was already mentioned above, mono- or perfluoroalkylsulfonic acids or the corresponding salts of the mono-, poly- or perfluoroalkylsulfonic acids are, of course, also conceivable. 
         [0066]    It is seen that such a surfactant of an electrolyte according to the present invention may be, as was described above, a compound corresponding to Formula I and may be selected, for example, from the group containing sodium monofluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium difluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium trifluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium tetrafluorobutyl sulfonate, sodium pentafluorobutyl

     DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
       [0126]    Referring to the drawings,  FIGS. 1 a  through 1 h , 2 a  through 2 f , 3 a  through 3 e , 4 a  through 4 h , 5 a  through 5 h  and 6 a    through  6   l  show different examples of surfactants according to the present invention, which may be contained in the additive. The additive is contained in an electrolyte  30 . The electrolyte  30  is contained in one embodiment variant, as can be seen in  FIGS. 8, 9   a  and  9   b , in a gas sensor  10  according to the present invention. 
         [0127]    It is seen in  FIGS. 1 a  through 1 h , 2 a  through 2 f , 3 a  through 3 e , 4 a  through 4 h    and  6   a  through  6   l  that the surfactant is an anionic surfactant. Corresponding to the exemplary embodiments shown in  FIGS. 1 a , 1 c , 1 e , 1 g , 2 a , 2 b  and 3 a   , the surfactants are sulfonic acids. The surfactants corresponding to the exemplary embodiments shown in  FIGS. 1 b , 1 d , 1 f , 1 h , 2 c  through 2 f , 3 b  through 3 e , 4 a  through 4 h    as well as  6   a  through  6   d  are sulfonates, i.e., salts of sulfonic acid. The surfactants corresponding to the exemplary embodiments shown in  FIGS. 6 e  through 6 l    are sulfates, i.e., salts of sulfuric acid esters.

If the additive is a mixture of a plurality of components, it has, in one embodiment variant, both halogenated surfactants corresponding to the exemplary embodiments according to  FIGS. 1 a  through 1 d , 2 a  through 2 f  and 3 a  through 3 e    and halogen-free surfactants corresponding to the exemplary embodiments according to  FIGS. 1 e  through 1 h , 4 a  through 4 h , 5 f  through 5 h  and 6 a    through  6   l.  
 
         [0154]      FIG. 7  shows a first, very simple and schematic exemplary embodiment of an electrochemical gas sensor  10 , which has an electrolyte  30  with an additive. The gas sensor  10  is an electrochemical cell. It has a housing  10  with a gas inlet  23 . Two electrodes  21 ,  22 , namely, a working electrode  21  and a counterelectrode  22 , are arranged in the housing. The electrodes  21 ,  22  are coupled with one another via an electrically conductive analysis unit  24 . The analysis unit is, e.g., an amperometer. The electrolyte  30  is arranged in the housing  10 . The electrodes  21 ,  22  partly dip into the electrolyte  30 . The electrolyte  30  therefore partly wets the electrodes  21 ,  22 . A gas mixture  40  to be analyzed can enter and, if necessary, also leave the housing  10  through a gas inlet  23 . 
         [0155]    It is seen that the gaseous phase, which is formed by the gas mixture  40 , the liquid phase, which is formed by the electrolyte  30 , and the solid phase, which is formed by the respective electrodes  21 ,  22 , form a three-phase boundary. The desired reaction of the gas to be detected with the electrode material and with the electrolyte takes place at this three-phase boundary. 
         [0156]    The additive of the electrolyte  30  contains a surfactant corresponding to one of the above-described exemplary embodiments shown in  FIGS. 1 a  through 1 e , 2 a  through 2 f , 3 a  through 3 e , 4 a  through 4 h , 5 f  through 5 h  and 6 a    through  6   l . In one embodiment variant, the additive of the electrolyte  30  contains a plurality of these surfactants. In yet another embodiment variant, the additive additionally contains additional components. 
         [0157]      FIG. 8 a    schematically shows another embodiment variant for an electrochemical gas sensor  10 . This gas sensor  10  also has a housing  20 , in which a working electrode  21  and a counterelectrode  22  are arranged. The electrodes  21 ,  22  are also coupled here with one another via an analysis unit  24 . The housing  20  has, in addition, a gas inlet  23  and a gas outlet  25 . A gas mixture  40  to be analyzed can enter the housing  10  through the gas inlet  23  and form a gaseous phase there. The electrolyte  30  is arranged in the interior of a porous wick system (wick)  50 . The wick system  50  is in contact with the electrodes  21 ,  22  such that a layer of the electrolyte (electrolyte layer) is formed between the wick system  50  and the surface of the electrodes  21 ,  22 . This electrolyte layer wets the surface of the electrodes  21 ,  22  on the side of the electrodes  21 ,  22  facing the wick system  50 . The electrodes  21 ,  22  consist of a porous material. The pores of the material enlarge the surface of the electrodes  21 ,  22 . 
         [0158]    It is seen in the enlarged detail of area A, which is shown in  FIG. 8 b   , that the electrolyte  30  enters the pores of the electron material. A three-phase boundary is formed from the electrode material  21 , the gas mixture  40  and the electrolyte  30  within the respective pore. The wick system  50  ensures that a sufficient quantity of but not too much electrolyte  30  is always present in the pores of the electrodes  21 ,  22 . This process is supported especially by the surfactant, which is present in the additive of the electrolyte  30 .
