Journal of Electrochemistry

The FeO42-was synthesized using iron lattice as anode and the solid K2FeO4 was also prepared.Influence of electrolytic conditions,such as stir,ultrasonic,temperature and current density on the current efficiency were studied.The results showed that preferable ferrate(VI) current yield was obtained in a current density of 10 mA·cm-2,temperature 30℃ and 14 mol/L NaOH as electrolyte under at stirring effect.

The Nano-structural SnO2/Carbon Nanotubes Composites were prepared in a solution of SnCl2,ethylene glycol(EG),purified MWCNTs and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) at 160 ℃.The phase structure and surface morphology of the composites were measured by XRD HRTEM and SEM.The results indicate that there are high dispersions and high loadings of SnO2 nanoparticles on MWCNTs.Electrochemical lithium storage performance was studied preliminarily on the obtained samples.MWCNTs modified with SnO2 nanoparicles were shown to have a higher electrochemical reversible capacity than that of MWCNTs during the charge and discharge process.MWCNTs can accommodate the larger structure strain of the active materials produced during Li-ion insertion and extraction,which …

Study On The Electrochemical Machining Of Titanium Alloys Tc4 With The Method Of Uniform Design, Mei-Li Zhang, Di Zhu, Zheng-Yang Xu

Journal of Electrochemistry

For the electrochemical machining of titanium alloys,a passivating film tends to form on the machining surface,which holdbacks the process of machining;and some corrosive pittings can appear on the non-machining surface,which leading to the poor surface quality.So how to improve the machining surface quality,this is a hot problem in aerospace industries.An experiment plan has been made with the method of uniform design and the variance analysis has been carried out using the result data of the previous experiments.The experimental results show that an excellent machining surface with Ra 0.38 μm would be obtained in the electrolyte of 10% NaCl solution,4% Na2S2O8 …

Journal of Electrochemistry

The effect of partial substitution of Ce for La on the structure and the electrochemical properties of the La0.7-xCexMg0.3Ni2.4Co0.6(x=0~0.4)hydrogen storage alloys have been investigated systematically.The result of X-ray powder diffraction(XRD) show that the alloys are all consisted of the LaNi3 phase and the LaNi5 phase.The maximum discharge capacity is decreased gradually with increase of the Ce contents,but the cycling life is improved obviously.

Journal of Electrochemistry

A Ni-scandia-stabilized zirconia(Ni-ScSZ) cermet anode modified by coating with nano-sized gadolinium-doped ceria(GDC,Gd0.2Ce0.8O2) was prepared using a simple combustion process for the solid oxide fuel cell(SOFC) running on methane fuel.X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) indicated that the surface of Ni-ScSZ was coated by nano-sized GDC particles(<100nm).Single cell testing showed that the 2.0%(by mass) GDC-coated Ni-ScSZ anode had better performance.The highest power densities of the cell with this anode were 825 and 848mW/cm2 at 850℃ in humidified hydrogen and methane,respectively,whereas the corresponding values were 584 and 586mW/cm2 for the cell with Ni-ScSZ anode.Electrochemical impedance spectra(EIS) illustrated that the cell with Ni-ScSZ anode exhibited far greater impedances than the cell with 2.0%(by mass) GDC-coated Ni-ScSZ anode.Then the short-term stability for the cells with the Ni-ScSZ and 2.0%(by mass) GDC-coated Ni-ScSZ anodes in 97%CH4/3%H2O at 700℃ was checked over a relative long period of operation.No significant degradation in performance has been observed after 84 h of cell testing when 2.0%(by mass) GDC-coated Ni-ScSZ anode was exposed to 97%CH4/3%H2O at 700 ℃.Very little carbon was detected on the anodes,suggesting that carbon deposition was limited during cell operation.
