Journal of Electrochemistry

The LiNi 0.5Co 0.2Mn 0.3O2/LiFePO4 (NMC532/LFP) composite cathode material for lithium-ion battery was prepared by wet ball-milling. The capacity fading behaviors of LiNi 0.5Co 0.2Mn 0.3O2 (NMC532) and LiNi 0.5Co 0.2Mn 0.3O2/LiFePO4 (NMC532/LFP) were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), charge/discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests. The results indicated that the capacity retention values of NMC532/LFP were 97.80% and 86.48%, respectively, after 50 cycles and 60℃ high temperature storage. The NMC532/LFP exhibited better cycle performance and high temperature storage performance. …

Journal of Electrochemistry

Transition metal carbides and nitrides are attractive materials for electrodes in many electrochemical energy storage and conversion applications. In the present study, we use density functional theory slab calculations to characterize the surface chemical properties of molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) carbides and nitrides, namely, Mo2C, W2C, Mo2N and W2N with the adsorption of CO, CO2 and O2. These probing molecules provide measures of in both acidity/basicity and redox property of for the surfaces of these carbides and nitrides. Our results show that Lewis basic sites were responsible for CO2 …

Cathodic Electrochemiluminescence Of Meso-Tetra(4-Sulfophenyl)Porphyrin/Potassium Peroxydisulfate System, Yan-Fenga Wang, Dia Luo, Duo-Liang Shan, Xiao-Quan Lu Jun 2017

Cathodic Electrochemiluminescence Of Meso-Tetra(4-Sulfophenyl)Porphyrin/Potassium Peroxydisulfate System, Yan-Fenga Wang, Dia Luo, Duo-Liang Shan, Xiao-Quan Lu

Journal of Electrochemistry

A new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system in aqueous solution was constructed by using meso-tetra(4-sulfophenyl)porphyrin (TSPP) as a luminophoreand potassium peroxydisulfate (K2S2O8) as a reductive–oxidative coreactant. Upon sweeping from 0 V to -1.5 V, two cathodic ECL peaks were found simultaneously. One appeared at -0.8 V, which is corresponding to the reduction of TSPP, another at -1.2 V, that is attributed to the reduction of K2S2O8. And methylene blue could quench the ECL of TSPP effectively. In accordance with the linearity between quenching efficiency and the concentration of methylene blue, a method to determine methylene blue was established. The ECL mechanism was …

Resistive-Pulse Analysis Of Single Phospholipid Vesicles Using Quartz Nanochannels, T. Cox Jonathan, Zhang Bo Apr 2017

Resistive-Pulse Analysis Of Single Phospholipid Vesicles Using Quartz Nanochannels, T. Cox Jonathan, Zhang Bo

Journal of Electrochemistry

We report the uses of resistive-pulse method and quartz nanochannels for the detection and size analysis of single vesicles. Cylindrical shape quartz nanochannels have been used to detect single phospholipid vesicles ranging from 100 to 300 nm and polystyrene nanoparticles ranging from 170 to 400 nm in diameter. Translocations of single vesicles and nanoparticle were detected as individual square current pulses, which could be used to determine particle size. Our results show excellent agreement between the particle/vesicle sizes obtained from nanochannels and those from dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This electronic-based method was found to be …

Electrografting Of Mono-N-Boc-Ethylenediamine From An Acetonitrile/Aqueous Nahco3 Mixture, Hamzah Hisham, Denuault Guy, Bartlett Philip, Pinczewska Aleksandra, Kilburn Jeremy Apr 2017

Electrografting Of Mono-N-Boc-Ethylenediamine From An Acetonitrile/Aqueous Nahco3 Mixture, Hamzah Hisham, Denuault Guy, Bartlett Philip, Pinczewska Aleksandra, Kilburn Jeremy

Journal of Electrochemistry

The electrografting of primary amines to carbon electrodes is now widely employed for electrode modification. Using a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1 mol•L-1 aqueous sodium hydrogen carborate (NaHCO3) in the ratio of 4:1, the efficiency for coupling of mono-N-Boc-ethylenediamine (EDA-Boc) on the surface of glassy carbon was significantly improved as compared with that obtained using acetonitrile alone. In the presence of NaHCO3 the initial current determined in the cyclic voltammogram became higher, and the layer of attached amine was formed more rapidly, accordingly, the electrode was passivated more rapidly. The resulting film of EDA-Boc was shown …

Electrochemical Methods In Clinical Immunoassays And Nucleic Acid Analyses, Yanbing Zu Apr 2017

Electrochemical Methods In Clinical Immunoassays And Nucleic Acid Analyses, Yanbing Zu

Journal of Electrochemistry

The applications of electrochemical methods in immunoassays and nucleic acid analyses are discussed. Instead of a comprehensive literature review, this paper focuses on the techniques that have already been commercialized and used in clinical diagnoses. Learning from the success of these methods will help us to further understand the strengths and limitations of electroanalytical technology. A personal perspective of the research and development in these fields has been presented.

Direct Electrochemistry Of Glucose Oxidase Based On Ws2 Quantum Dots And Its Biosensing Application, Chen-Lu Li, Hua-Ping Peng, Zhong-Nan Huang, Yi-Lun Sheng, Pei-Wen Wu, Xin-Hua Lin Feb 2017

Direct Electrochemistry Of Glucose Oxidase Based On Ws2 Quantum Dots And Its Biosensing Application, Chen-Lu Li, Hua-Ping Peng, Zhong-Nan Huang, Yi-Lun Sheng, Pei-Wen Wu, Xin-Hua Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this study, a novel electrochemical glucose biosensor has been developed by immobilizing glucose oxidase (GOx) on tungsten disulfide quantum dots (WS2 QDs) on the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry were employed to characterize the morphology, structure, and electrochemical behaviors of the as-prepared WS2 QDs and the biofilm modified electrode. The results suggested that the WS2 QDs could accelerate the electron transfer between the electrode and the immobilized enzyme, which enabled the direct electrochemistry of GOx without any electron mediator. Besides, the immobilized GOx in WS2 QDsfilm …

Application Of Adamantane Schiff Base Nickel Complexes/Graphene Oxide/Glassy Carbon Modified Electrode In Detection Of Carmine, Peng Guo, Zheng Liu, Hai-Ying Li, Li-Ming Ma

Journal of Electrochemistry

The Schiff base nickel complexes/graphene oxide/glassy carbon electrodes were prepared by embedded method and electrodeposition on which were used to quantitatively detect the contents of carmine. Cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and other methods were employed to characterize properties and morphologies of the modified electrodes. The results show that the adamantane double Schiff base nickel complexes/graphene oxide/glassy carbon electrode had high electric catalytic activity toward carmine oxidation reaction, and might provide an easy and quick way to detect carmine content with good reproducibility.
