The titanium (Ti) based lead oxide (PbO2) electrodes doped with praseodymium oxide (Pr2O3) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were prepared by electrodeposition. The surface morphologies and structures of the as-prepared thin films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, respectively. The results showed that the denser and more uniform coatings with smaller particles and larger surfaces were obtained by doping, which modified the micro-structure of the Ti/SnO2-Sb2O3/Pr2O3-PVP-PbO2 electrode. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was also used to study the electrocatalytic activity of …
Degradation Of High Voltage Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composites By Aggressive Environmental Conditions, Tianyi Lu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Polymer matrix composites reinforced with either E glass or ECR glass fibers-reinforced are used in a variety of high voltage electrical applications because of their advantages like lower weight and cost. However, they can be damaged by aggressive in-service conditions such as high temperature, ultraviolet radiation, moisture, ozone and corrosive environments. Different degradation mechanisms can develop in high voltage PMCs under those extreme environments, which, in turn, can affect the long term structural durability of the composites. A set of PMCs reinforced with ECR-glass and E-glass fibers embedded in four different resins has been investigated in this study. In addition, …

The degradation behavior of 8-hydroxyquinoleine sulfate (8-HQS), a model molecule of quinolines, was studied in an aqueous medium by electro-Fenton process using a carbon felt cathode and a platinum anode. The great oxidation ability of this process is due to a large production of hydroxyl radical (OH) by electrochemically induced Fenton’s reagent (H2O2, Fe2+). Hydroxyl radicals are very powerful oxidizing agents which react on organics up to complete mineralization. A factorial experimental design was used for determining the operating parameters on the degradation of 8-HQS in an aqueous medium. The results showed that the current intensity and the initial concentration …

The CeO2-modified PbO2 on Ti plate ( Ti/CeO2-F-PbO2) was prepared by electrodeposition. The SEM and XRD analyses indicated that the CeO2 particle could be beuniformly co-deposited in the film of PbO2. The results of electrochemical test showed that the Ti/CeO2-F-PbO2 anode had higher potential ( 1. 83 V. vs. SCE) for oxygen evolution ( OE) than the Ti/F-PbO2 anode ( 1. 78 V,vs. SCE) . The degradation of 4-chlorophenol was carried out to test electrocatalytic performance of this novel electrode,which indicated that Ti/CeO2-F-PbO2 anode had high COD removal rate and instantaneous current efficiencies ( ICE) .
