A modified version of the carburization process, a widely established technique used in the steel industry for case hardening of components, is used for the growth of graphene on stainless steel. Controlled growth of high-quality single- and few-layered graphene on stainless steel (SS) foils through a liquid-phase chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique is reported. Reversible Li intercalatio...

In this work a new chemically modified carbon paste electrode was constructed for accurate, simple, sensitive and selective determination of molybdenum (VI) ions. The results of modified electrode by an ion imprinted polymer were compared with those obtained with carbon paste electrode. The results showed the stripping peak currents had a dramatic increase at the modified electrode. Under the o...

The electrochemical reduction (in aprotic polar solvents) of thin compact graphene layers are mechanically deposited onto flat glassy carbon (GC) surfaces and reduced alone or in the presence of α,ω-dihaloalkanes. These mixed electrolyses implied on one hand graphene moieties considered as redox blocks and/or free radical traps and on the other hand X-R-X as pro-links between graphene islands. ...

a sodium dodecyl sulfate modified carbon paste electrode (sds/cpe) was developed in this work based on the surface modification method. the modified electrode was prepared by immersing sds/cpe in a nickel nitrate solution. this electrode showed a strong accumulation ability toward nickel ions. then modified electrode was conditioned by potential recycling in a potential range of 0.2–0.8 v (vs. ...

This article is focused on the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride as a local anaesthetic drug. A potentiometric method based on modified screen-printed and modified carbon paste ion-selective electrodes was described for the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride in different pharmaceutical preparations. It was based on potentiometric titration of lidocaine hydrochloride using modified ...

a chemically modified carbon paste electrode with multiwall carbon nanotube (mwcnt) was prepared and used as a sensor for cu2+ ion. the unique chemical and physical properties of cnt have paved the way  to  new  and  improved  sensing  devices.  a  central  composite chemometrics  design  was  applied  for  multivariate  optimization  of the  effects  of  three  significant  parameters  (graphi...

This paper describes the development of screen-printed (SPE) and carbon paste (CPE) sensors for the rapid and sensitive quantification of naphazoline hydrochloride (NPZ) in pharmaceutical formulations. This work compares the electroactivity of conventional carbon paste and screen-printed carbon paste electrodes towards potentiometric titration of NPZ. The repeatability and accuracy of measureme...

The data reported in literature demonstrate that carbon paste electrodes (CPEs) are very suitable for a variety of applications and many works have thus been devoted in the development of new sensitive and selective electrode surfaces based on carbon paste as the electrode material of choice. The application of novel and promising carbonaceous materials, as electrode surfaces, is an issue of gr...

Graphene is considered a next-generation electrode for indium tin oxide (ITO)-free organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs). However, to date, limited numbers of OPVs containing surface-modified graphene electrodes perform as well as ITO-based counterparts, and no devices containing a bare graphene electrode have been reported to yield satisfactory rectification characteristics. In this report, we p...
