Ag4V2O6F2: an electrochemically active and high silver density phase.

Room Temperature Synthesis of the Larger Power, High Silver Density Cathode Material Ag4V2O6F2 for Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators

New cathode materials will lead to technological advances for implantable cardioverter defibrillators, ICDs, such as reduced size and increased performance of the device. While the industry standard silver vanadium oxide Ag2V4O11 exhibits great chemical/electrochemical stability, dense silver oxide fluoride materials are advantageous because of high crystal density that can result in an increas...

Electrical and optical characterization of Ag2V4O11 and Ag4V2O6F2

The two silver vanadium oxide phases— Ag2V4O11 and Ag4V2O6F2—were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. The electrical conductivity of both silver vanadate powders was determined by the powder-solutioncomposite (PSC) method. The conductivities obtained were 0.0085±0.0005 and 0.0005±0.00015 S/cm for the Ag2V4O11 and Ag4V2O6F2, respectively, the first such report for the Ag4V2O6F2 phase. The optica...

Ag4V2O6F2 (SVOF): a high silver density phase and potential new cathode material for implantable cardioverter defibrillators.

The electrochemical reactivity of the cathode material Ag 4V 2O 6F 2 (SVOF) versus lithium, with a particular emphasis on the lithium insertion mechanism, was studied by means of the complementary techniques in situ X-ray diffraction, electron paramagnetic resonance, and high-resolution transmisssion electron microscopy. This study confirms the initial reports of a high capacity for SVOF of 148...

Electrically and Electrochemically Active Composite Based on Polyester/Reduced Graphene Oxide/Polypyrrole with Remarkable Washing Durability

Portable and remote electrochemical sensing system for detection of tricresyl phosphate in gas phase

A portable electrochemical sensor has been developed for determination of tricresyl phosphate (TCP) in gas phase. An alkaline catalyst column was used in an automatic TCP sampling system where gasified TCP was hydrolysed to cresol, making it electrochemically detectable. Hydrolysates were then detected in the flow injection analysis (FIA). Amperometric measurements were performed utilizing the ...
