The electrochemical reduction of 1,8-dihydroxy-9,10-anthracenedione (Q) has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Both 9,10-anthroquinone (AQ) and 1,8-methoxy-9,10-anthracenedione (DMeAQ) are reduced in two steps. First, they are reduced to the anion radical. Next, the anion radicals are reduced to the dianion. However, the CV of Q shows more cathodic and anodic peaks, which suggests th...

Electrochemical micromachining (ECMM) is a non-conventional manufacturing method suitable for the production of microsized components on a wide range of conductive materials. ECMM improves dimensional accuracy and simplifies tool design for machining hard, high strength, heat resistant, and conductive materials into complex shapes. Extremely small interelectrode gaps of the order of few microns...

MnO2 materials are prepared through a hydrothermal process. Sn-doping and composite graphene are both achieved simultaneously during the hydrothermal reaction then obtain the electrode materials of supercapacitors. Morphology, structure and electrochemical properties of the samples are evaluated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical work station. The...

Tris-1,10-phenanthroline manganese(II) complex was synthesized by microwave irradiation. The synthesized complex was characterized by UV-visible and FT-IR spectroscopy. Its electrochemical behaviour was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The tris-1,10-phenanthroline manganese(II) complex was used for the electrochemical sensing of catechol. The manganese ion gets reduced as the oxidation of c...

In this paper we introduce a blanket mold imprinting process to prevent complication of the fluid flow and difficulties in producing high pressure seals. Inchannel embedded metal lines were also fabricated within the channel allowing electrochemical detections of analytes. Electrochemical microfluidc device has been fabricated on the PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) substrate by using imprintin...

Electrochemical or photo-electrochemical reactions in both electrospray ionization and laser desorption ionization are discussed stressing the role of the electrode reaction in influencing the ionization process. In particular, upon application of a high voltage during electrospray ionization, the emitter includes a working electrode, where redox reactions are observed, such as electro-generati...

A model of the self-discharge process of a nickel-hydrogen cell is presented. The model includes three electrochemical reactions on the nickel electrode (reduction of nickel oxyhydroxide, oxidation of hydrogen, and oxidation of hydroxyl ion to form oxygen) and two electrochemical reactions on the hydrogen electrode (reduction of oxygen and oxidation of hydrogen). The self-discharge pressure pro...

The main objective of this study was to examine the feasibility of coupling an electrochemical process with a biological treatment for the degradation of sulfamethazine, a biorecalcitrant antibiotic. The electrochemical behavior of sulfamethazine was examined by cyclic voltammetry, showing an electroactivity in oxidation. The pre-treatment was carried out using an electrochemical flow cell invo...
