In Rev. Sci. Intrum. 1995, 66 (1), 97-100, on page 98, the authors describe using a -1.1 V vs carbon (but I use vs Pt) in H2SO4 ( I use 50 mM) to electrochemically etch PtO2 off Pt. Hope this helps!

What is the chemical symbol for platinum oxide?

Platinum dioxide, also known as Adams' catalyst, is usually represented as platinum(IV) oxide hydrate, PtO2-H2O. It is a catalyst for hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis in organic synthesis. This dark brown powder is commercially available. The oxide itself is not an active catalyst, but it becomes active after exposure to hydrogen whereupon it converts to platinum black, which is responsible for reactions.
