Journal of Electrochemistry
A MWNTs modified GC electrode was constructed successfully to be used to detect hydrogen peroxide.Two methods of maximum anodic current of cyclic voltommogram and chronoamperometry were adopted to measure the concentration of hydrogen peroxide.The results show that the MWCNTs can enlarge the effective surface area of GC electrode and can enormously enhance the electron transfer.The sensitivity and correlation coefficient for hydrogen peroxide detection are 2.84 μA/mmol·L-1,0.997 and 1.5 μA/mmol·L-1,0.971 for cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry,respectively.The procedure of the two methods to detect hydrogen peroxide is simple,and the results obtained are satisfied.

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 …

Fabrication And Performance Of Ni-Scsz Cermet Anode Modified By Coating With Gd_(0.2)Ce_(0.8)O_2 For A Sofc, Ren-Zhu Liu, Bo Huang, Xiao-Feng Ye, Shao-Rong Wang, Jia-Di Cao, Huai-Wen Nie, Ting-Lian Wen
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.

Effects Of Direct Current Bias Potentials On Lipid Membranes Forming On A Glassy Carbon Electrode, Yu-Hui Li, Hong-Wei Zhang, Gui-Lan Song, Zhan-Jun Zhang, Sheng-Min Cai
Journal of Electrochemistry
The effects of direct current(DC) bias voltage on the structure of lipid membranes forming on a glassy carbon electrode(GCE) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry(CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).The experiment showed that the lipid membranes can be formed with either positive or negative bias potential exerted.When bias voltage was exerted,bilayer lipid membranes tended to form due to the electrostatic interaction between the superficial positive charges on the polarized electrode and the negative charged part of PC.When the positive bias voltage overrun the range,the lacunas on s-BLMs would increase,and the BLMs would be broken.A proper equivalent circuit was nonlinearly fitted,based on the …

Thermal Effects On Mechanical Grinding-Induced Surface Texture In Tetragonal Piezoelectrics, Wonyoung Chang, Alexander H. King, Keith J. Bowman

The effect of temperature on grinding-induced texture in tetragonal lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and lead titanate (PT) has been investigated using in situ x-ray diffraction (XRD) with an area detector. In contrast with previous results on electrical poling, mechanically-ground PT and soft PZT materials retain strong ferroelastic textures during thermal cycling, even after excursions to temperatures slightly above the Curie temperature. The relationship between the residual stresses in the surface region, caused by grinding, and those resulting from domain wall motion is elucidated by in situ texture measurements obtained during thermal cycling.
How Surface Stresses Lead To Size-Dependent Mechanics Of Tensile Deformation In Nanowires, M. Ravi Shankar, Alexander H. King
How Surface Stresses Lead To Size-Dependent Mechanics Of Tensile Deformation In Nanowires, M. Ravi Shankar, Alexander H. King
Alexander H. King
It has been proposed that surface and interface stresses can modify the elastic behavior in nanomaterials such as nanowires. The authors show that surface stresses modify the tensile response of nanowires only when nonlinear elastic effects become important leading to cross terms between the applied stress and the surface stress. These effects are only significant when the radius of the nanowire is of the order of a few nanometers. The resulting alteration of tensile stiffness, though effected in part by the nonlinear elastic modulus, is particularly wrought by a modification of the stress state in the deformed nanowire.
Effect Of The Lattice Crystallinity On The Electron−Phonon Relaxation Rates In Gold Nanoparticles, Wenyu Huang, Wei Qian, Mostafa El-Sayed
Effect Of The Lattice Crystallinity On The Electron−Phonon Relaxation Rates In Gold Nanoparticles, Wenyu Huang, Wei Qian, Mostafa El-Sayed
Wenyu Huang
In order to study the importance of surface phonons on the electron−phonon relaxation in plasmonic nanoparticles, the effect of size, shape, and materials have recently been studied. Gold and silver nanoparticles have shown no dependence on size and shape while copper nanoparticles have shown some size dependence. This suggests that the bulk phonons, which are sensitive to the bulk-phase structure, are solely responsible for the relaxation of the hot electron in gold and silver plasmonic nanoparticles. The importance of bulk phonons should depend on the degree of crystallinity. In the present study, we have found that the electron−phonon relaxation rate …

Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) in lithographically fabricated gold (Au) nanodisc pairs are investigated using microabsorption spectroscopy and electrodynamic simulations. In agreement with previous work, we find that the fractional plasmon wavelength shift for polarization along the interparticle axis decays nearly exponentially with the interparticle gap. In addition, we find that the decay length is roughly about 0.2 in units of the particle size for different nanoparticle size, shape, metal type, or medium dielectric constant. The near-exponential distance decay and the interesting “universal” scaling behavior of interparticle plasmon coupling can be qualitatively explained on the basis of a dipolar-coupling model …

By using electron beam lithography, we fabricated pairs of gold nanoparticles with varying interparticle separation. Double-beam femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy was used to determine the coherent lattice oscillation frequency as a function of the interparticle separation in the presence of the plasmon field excited by the monitoring probe light. We found that the fractional shift in the coherent lattice phonon oscillation frequency follows an exponential decay with respect to the interparticle gap scaled by the disc diameter with the same decay constant as that previously observed for the fractional shift in the surface plasmon electronic oscillation resonance frequency. This strongly …

Carbazolyl Nitrenium Ion: Electron Configuration And Antiaromaticity Assessed By Laser Flash Photolysis, Trapping Rate Constants, Product Analysis, And Computational Studies, Arthur Winter, Harry H. Gibson, Daniel E. Falvey
Arthur Winter
Laser flash photolysis of 1-(carbazol-9-yl)-2,4,6-trimethylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate generates the carbazolyl nitrenium ion (τ = 333 ns, kobs = 3.0 × 106 M-1s-1) having absorption bands at 570 and 620 nm in CH3CN. The nitrenium ion is found to have reactivity comparable to structurally similar closed-shell diarylnitrenium ions, but spectroscopic evidence favors an open-shell singlet diradical assignment for the observed nitrenium ion. The carbazolyl nitrenium ion is also more reactive than diarylnitrenium ions as a likely result of antiaromatic character. Ab initio and hybrid DFT calculations were performed to address the degree of antiaromaticity in this and similar nitrenium ions through analysis …
Benzylic Cations With Triplet Ground States: Computational Studies Of Aryl Carbenium Ions, Silylenium Ions, Nitrenium Ions, And Oxenium Ions Substituted With Meta Π Donors, Arthur Winter, Daniel E. Falvey, Christopher J. Cramer, Benjamin F. Gherman
Benzylic Cations With Triplet Ground States: Computational Studies Of Aryl Carbenium Ions, Silylenium Ions, Nitrenium Ions, And Oxenium Ions Substituted With Meta Π Donors, Arthur Winter, Daniel E. Falvey, Christopher J. Cramer, Benjamin F. Gherman
Arthur Winter
Density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)) was used to predict the effect of meta substitution on aryl cationic (Ar−X+) species, including aryloxenium ions, arylsilylenium ions, arylnitrenium ions, and arylcarbenium ions. Multireference second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) calculations were used to benchmark the quantitative accuracy of the DFT calculations for representative systems. Substituting the meta positions on these species with π donors stabilizes a π,π* diradical state analogous to the well-known m-xylylene diradical. Notably, the 3,5-bis(N,N-dimethylamino)benzyl cation is predicted to have a triplet ground state by 1.9 kcal/mol by DFT and to have essentially degenerate singlet−triplet states at the CASPT2(10,9) level of theory. Adding …

Urea–calix[4]arenes 1 and 2 were synthesised and incorporated into ISE membranes for assessment as sensors for inorganic anions in water. 1 revealed a strong response to all anions following the Hofmeister selectivity order. For ISEs of 2, the response to a portion of the anion series was suppressed, increasing the margin of selectivity of nitrate over chloride, a common interferant of nitrate in fresh and marine water samples. The performance of ISEs containing 2 was compared to commercially available alkylammonium nitrate ion-exchange salts used for nitrate sensing. Our ISEs performed favourably in terms of sensitivity, linear range and LOD performing …

Four Novel Co-Precipitation Procedures For The Synthesis Of Lanthanum-Strontium Manganites, Vuk Uskoković, Miha Drofenik
Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research
Lanthanum-strontium manganites were synthesized using co-precipitation method with a reverse micellar microemulsion. Either oxalic acid, sodium hydroxide or tetramethylammonium hydroxide was used for the precipitation of precursor cations in a form that was subsequently calcined under various conditions in order to obtain perovskite manganite phase. Correlations between the properties of the synthesized powder and the calcination conditions have been put forth. The properties of the microemulsion-assisted synthesized material were compared with the samples prepared by following the supposedly similar chemical recombinations in bulk solutions, with an aim to challenge the fact that microemulsions in general have only templating effects on …

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Publications
The shape of pulverized bituminous coal particles (vitrinites) was determined by optical and laser light scattering. Vitrain samples were collected from obvious tree remains located in the ceilings of two Appalachian coal mines. Wet sieving produced narrow size cuts. The particles were determined to be oblong or blocky in shape, with average length-to-width ratio of 1.7 and sphericity of 0.78. They were analogous in shape to a square ended, rectangular "house brick". The two bituminous coals and different size cuts of each coal had essentially the same shape parameters. Characteristic heating times and terminal velocities were higher by 22 and …
