Quantitative Evaluation Of Electrochemical Properties Of Mh Alloy By Powder Microelectrode, Ronghui Hu, Hanxi Yang, Jingcheng Liu, Shengxian Li, Chuanxin Cha Nov 1996

Quantitative Evaluation Of Electrochemical Properties Of Mh Alloy By Powder Microelectrode, Ronghui Hu, Hanxi Yang, Jingcheng Liu, Shengxian Li, Chuanxin Cha

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this paper, a quantitative method by use of powder microelectrode combined with cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic step is described for studying the electrochemical performance characteristic of hydrogen storage alloy(MH). Since the powder microelectrode uses only MH powder and has its depth and diameter of several tens of micrometer, the ohmic and concentration ploarization are greatly reduced and the influences of the technical factors in electrode preparation on the material performance are simply eliminated. Thus, with accurate determination of the load quantity of MH alloy in power microelectrode by absorption spectrometric technique, it is feasible to evaluate quickly and quantitatively …

Studies Of Electrochemical Behaviors Of Cytochrome C On Pretreated Gold Electrodereceived 16 May, 1996, Jin Luo, Lingling Wu, Shaohua Huang, Zhonghua Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

The quasi reversible responses of both adsorbed and bulk cytochrome c at the pretreated gold electrode are observed. The adsorption behaviors and reaction kinetics have been studied using in situ FTIR spectroscopy, UV/Vis reflection spectroscopy, voltammetry, AC impedance and potential step methods. The results show that the cytochrome c can irreversibly adsorb on the gold surface in a complete monolayer and the adsorbed layer can mediate the redox reaction of the cytochrome c in the solution in the absence of promoter.

Emisja Związków Siarki Z Procesu Wielkopiecowego, Marian Mazur, Marek Bogacki, Robert Oleniacz

The paper describes the problem of the presence of sulfur in the blast furnace process and identifies emission sources of sulfur compounds in this process. On the basis of the measurements and calculations, the types and quantities of these compounds emitted to the air were determined. It was found that pig iron smelting in a blast furnace causes emissions of COS, SO2 and H2S. These emissions occur by losses of blast furnace gas (COS and SO2), transport of blast furnace slag inside the furnace hall (SO2) and treatment of the slag by granulation (H2S). However, the most important are only …

The paper presents the impact of alkali metals on sintering and blast furnace processes and air pollutant emissions including particulate matter. On the basis of the balance calculations, it was found that the main source of alkali (Na2O and K2O) in the sintering process is a raw mixture unweathered. The calculations showed that the level of dust emissions from the sinter strand to a large extent depends on: the total alkali content in a mixture of sinter, ash content in coke breeze, K2O concentration in coke ash and alkalinity of the produced sinter. Alkali metals are introduced into the blast …

Improvement Of The Anti-Interference Characteristics Of God Electrode By Using The Powder Microelectrode Technique, Chen Jian, Chuansin Cha Aug 1996

Improvement Of The Anti-Interference Characteristics Of God Electrode By Using The Powder Microelectrode Technique, Chen Jian, Chuansin Cha

Journal of Electrochemistry

The electrochemical behavior of ascorbic acid(AA),uric acid(UA),L-cystein(L-Cys)and acetaminophen(APAP),i.e.the main interference to the GOD electrode,were studied at the Pt,GC and powder microelectrode. Experimental results indicated that,due to the electrochemical activity of these interference,it is difficult to eliminate their interference effects by manipulation of electrede materials or working potential of the GOD electrode. However,it was found that the limiting curtents at the KB electrode are mainly controlled by mass transfer in liquid phase,so it is only related to the geometer size of the electrode,not its rcal surface area. Therefore,it is possible to enhance significantly the signal/noise ratio of the GOD electrode by …

Electrodeposition Of Cu-Co Multilayer Thin Films, Jiangyun Xue, Jixun Wu, Dejun Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

A method has been developed to produce Cu-Co Multilayer from a single electrolyte by electredeposition. The effects of the concentration of copper ions,current density and the speed of rotation were investigated,and the Cu-Co electrodeposition films were analysed by TEM. AES and X-ray diffraction.The results indicated that the film was alternating pure copper and coppercobalt alloy layers. If the content of copper in cobalt layer is to be small,the concentration of its ions in solution must be small and the rotation speed must be low.

Journal of Electrochemistry

The behaviour of electrochemical oxidation of the reduced nicotinamide coenzyme NADH on glassy carbon was studied and some kinetic parameters were measured by means of voltammometry in the N-dimethylformamide(DMF)and 1,4-dioxane media respectively. The eletrochemical oxidation of NADH shows completely irriversable both in the two solvents,and the diagnostic experiments support that the process involves a fast chemical step.The oxidation rate and the diffusion coefficient of N ADH in DMP are smaller than those in 1,4-dioxane,but the response current is more stable in DMF.

Study On The Ionic Conductivity Of Comb Polymer Electrolytes, Liming Ding Aug 1996

Study On The Ionic Conductivity Of Comb Polymer Electrolytes, Liming Ding

Journal of Electrochemistry

A comb polymer(CP350)with oligo-oxyethylene side chains was prepared from methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride copolymer.The ionic conductivity of CP350/LiAsF6 and CP350/LiPF6 complexes was studied as a function of temperature and[Li]/[EO]ratios.A equivalent circuit was given to interpret complex impedance spectra. At 25℃,the ionic conductivity maxima of the two systems are 1.38×10(-4),8.32×10(-5)S/cm respectively. The appearance of the conductivity maxima has been interpreted as being due to the effect of microviscosity on ion transport. lonic conduction displays non-Arrhenius behaviour.The temperature dependence of ionic conductivity was attributed mainly to the temperature dependence of charge carrier hopping,ion pairing and micro Brown motion of side chains.The larger …

A Preliminary Study Of Electrochemically Amplified Measurement Of Gold Electrodeposition, Bingwei Mao, Caihui Shi, Xiaoqin Li, Lihua Xiong

Journal of Electrochemistry

Gold electrodeposition onto a glassy carbon microelectrode is studied using an electrochemical amplification method. Taking the advantage that the electrochemical reduction of K2Cr2O7 has significantly higher reaction activity on gold electrode than carbon electrede,it is tentatively used to amplify the gold electredeposition current.The results show that there is a marked increase in current of gold electrodeposition in presence of K2Cr2O7 in comparison with that absent of K2Cr2O7.The electrochemical amplification method can be applied to study the electrodeposition of very in intial stage by choosing proper systems and improving experimental conditions.

Design Of Gradient Index Optical Thin Films, Jeffrey J. Druessel Jun 1996

Design Of Gradient Index Optical Thin Films, Jeffrey J. Druessel

Theses and Dissertations

Gradient index thin films provide greater flexibility for the design of optical coatings than the more conventional 'layer' films. In addition, gradient index films have higher damage thresholds and better adhesion properties. This dissertation presents an enhancement to the existing inverse Fourier transform gradient index design method, and develops a new optimal design method for gradient index films using a generalized Fourier series approach. The inverse Fourier transform method is modified to include use of the phase of the index profile as a variable in rugate filter design. Use of an optimal phase function in Fourier-based filter designs reduces the …
