Karakalpak Scientific Journal

This article describes how to design and implement a process for storing environmental information in a database using the Internet of Things. The problems that need to be solved with the help of this IoT system are the growing demand for forecasts in the world, the demand of the world market for a new sustainable method of implementing the digitization environment through the Internet of Things. The design was implemented using Arduino, Node-Red and sensors, selected when choosing a component based on the required parameters and sent to the database for monitoring and processing. A study of previous work and …


Electrochemical Voltammetric Behavior Of Sulfur Mustard On The Bare Pt Electrode, Yu-Lin Yang, Jie Sun, Tian Zhou, Ji-Gang Li, Shou-Ping Wei May 2022

Electrochemical Voltammetric Behavior Of Sulfur Mustard On The Bare Pt Electrode, Yu-Lin Yang, Jie Sun, Tian Zhou, Ji-Gang Li, Shou-Ping Wei

Journal of Electrochemistry

The sulfur mustard (bis(2-chloroethyl) sulphide, HD), one of highly toxic chemical weapon agents, can damage the alive tissue cells (such as skin, lung, respiratory mucosa and so on), and cause carcinogenic and mutagenic effects for a long time exposure, which imposes a great threat not only to the human health, but also to the sustainable development of the society. With its convenience, high sensitivity and rapid response, electrochemical technology exhibits considerable potential in the field-deployed detection toward HD, but the related reports are rare. Herein, the electrochemical behavior of HD on the bare Pt electrode was investigated by electrochemical measurements, …


Characterization Of Bimetallic Silver-Copper Nanoinks With Hydroxyethyl-Cellulose Additives, Daniel Brunick May 2022

Characterization Of Bimetallic Silver-Copper Nanoinks With Hydroxyethyl-Cellulose Additives, Daniel Brunick

Undergraduate Honors Theses

Coinage metal nanoparticles remain an intriguing subject for research due to their industrial versatility. Primary applications of coinage metal nanoparticles include printed electronics, solar panels, and sensors. Inks formulated with the nanoparticles are conductive and thus useful for fabricating sensors. Silver-copper nanoalloy inks are viable for the fabrication of flexible sensing devices for the detection of volatile organic compounds. One of the challenges is the ability to synthesize composition-controllable alloy nanoparticles at room temperature through wet chemical methods and achieve controllable sintering at room temperature. This work addresses the challenges by investigating the room-temperature synthesis of silver-copper alloy nanoparticles and …


Experimental Physical Chemistry Applications For Material Science: The Neutron Vibrational Spectrum Of Biaxially-Oriented Pet And Hkust-1 As A Qcm-Based Ethylene Sensor, Zachary D. Stroupe May 2022

Experimental Physical Chemistry Applications For Material Science: The Neutron Vibrational Spectrum Of Biaxially-Oriented Pet And Hkust-1 As A Qcm-Based Ethylene Sensor, Zachary D. Stroupe

Doctoral Dissertations

This work is divided into two comprehensive subjects exploiting fundamental properties of physical chemistry to understand applied materials. The two subjects will be: the inelastic neutron scattering of thin polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films and the design and development of a quartz crystal microbalance-based ethylene detector. For the work involving the thin films, the inelastic neutron scattering (INS) was accomplished using the high flux of the VISION vibrational spectrometer at the Spallation Neutron Source yielding the highest quality data currently available. The torsional vibrational modes of biaxially-oriented PET (bPET) will be reported with the help of DFT calculations to aid in …


Structural, Charge Transport, Gas Sensing, Magnetic, Pseudocapacitive, And Electrocatalytic Properties Of Perovskite Oxides., Surendra Bahadur Karki May 2022

Structural, Charge Transport, Gas Sensing, Magnetic, Pseudocapacitive, And Electrocatalytic Properties Of Perovskite Oxides., Surendra Bahadur Karki

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Perovskites are functional materials with the general formula ABO3 (A = alkali, alkaline earth or lanthanoid cations and B = transition metal or main group cations). These materials are marked by a variety of crystal structures and interesting properties such as colossal magnetoresistance, ferroelectricity, multiferroicity, superconductivity, pseudocapacitance, gas sensing, charge transport, and electrocatalytic properties. The formula of perovskite can be written as AA’BB’O6, when there is ordering between two cations over A and B-sites. Such compounds are called double perovskite oxides. Some amount of oxygen could be lost from crystal structure without decomposition of the phase. Such …


Electrochemistry Of Bubbles: Developing New Sensors, Promoting Gas Evolution Reactions, And Extraction Of Rare Earth Elements, Ruchiranga R. Ranaweera Jan 2022

Electrochemistry Of Bubbles: Developing New Sensors, Promoting Gas Evolution Reactions, And Extraction Of Rare Earth Elements, Ruchiranga R. Ranaweera

Wayne State University Dissertations

This dissertation presents new analytical, electrocatalysis, and separation strategies that utilize bubble behaviors in different electrochemical systems. The first part of this dissertation focuses on the method development for PFAS preconcentration and detection. First, we present the bubble-nucleation-based electrochemical method for the selective and sensitive detection of surfactants. Our method utilizes the high surface activity of surfactant analytes to affect the electrochemical bubble nucleation and then transduces the change in nucleation condition to an electrochemical signal for determining the surfactant concentration. Using this method, we demonstrate the quantitation of perfluorinated surfactants in water, a group of emerging environmental contaminants, with …


Bovine Serum Albumin Detection By Using Molecularly Imprinted Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors, Ali̇ Araz Jan 2022

Bovine Serum Albumin Detection By Using Molecularly Imprinted Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors, Ali̇ Araz

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Molecular imprinted polymers (MIP) have key-lock pattern binding properties specific to the size and shape of target molecules. In this study, we have prepared detection platforms based on a molecularly imprinted surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor that can detect bovine serum albumin (BSA) sensitively, selectively, quickly, and in real time. The polymeric film prepared on the SPR sensor surface by molecular imprinting method was obtained by selecting the N-methacryloyl-(L)-glutamic acid molecule as a suitable functional monomer using ultraviolet polymerization. Three different imprinting methods, such as epitope, bulk, and surface imprinting methods, were used to examine the imprinting efficiency. Real-time measurements …


Polyvinyl Alcohol-Citrate-Stabilized Silver Nanoparticles As An Optical Sensor For Selective Colorimetric Determination Of Sildenafil, Asi̇ye Aslihan Avan Jan 2022

Polyvinyl Alcohol-Citrate-Stabilized Silver Nanoparticles As An Optical Sensor For Selective Colorimetric Determination Of Sildenafil, Asi̇ye Aslihan Avan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A facile and sensitive colorimetric detection method for sildenafil citrate (SLDC) has been developed by using polyvinyl alcohol-citrate-stabilized silver nanoparticles (PVA-Cit-AgNPs). The sensitivity and selectivity of colorimetric detection were investigated in detail. The PVA-Cit-AgNPs could be induced to aggregate immediately in the presence of SLDC, especially after the addition of 0.1 M HCl solution. The SLD could be detected by the colorimetric response of AgNPs that could be monitored by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer or even the naked eye. The linear range was found to be 0.6-5.0 μM with the calculated detection limit of 0.1 μM and the naked-eye detection limit …
