gas diffusion electrode was used for providing better conditions in fuel cell systems for oxygen reduction reaction (orr). because the slow kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction at the proton exchange membrane fuel cell cathode restricts fuel cell efficiency. to this end, researchers have used platinum-coated carbon. in the present study, due to the reduction of carbon corrosion, zinc oxide...

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 paper investigates electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) including two alternative types of carbon-based fibrous electrodes, a carbon fibre woven fabric (CWF) and a multiwall carbon nanotube (CNT) electrode, as well as hybrid CWFCNT electrodes. Two types of separator membranes were also considered. An organic gel electrolyte PEO-LiCIO4-EC-THF was used to maintain a high working v...

The variables affecting determination of ultra trace levels of uranium (VI) in aqueous samples by differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry were examined in detail using Hg-thin film modified carbon paste and multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) incorporated carbon paste electrode. Carbon paste electrode prepared in the laboratory was modified with Hg thin film and used as the working elec...

In this work we report preparation TiO2 hollow spheres and its application as an electrochemical sensor. Therefore the novel carbon paste electrode modified with TiO2 hollow spheres (TOHS), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and poly-glutamic acid (PGA) film (PGA/TOHS/MWCNTs/CPE) was used for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and piroxicam (PRX) in the presence of ascorbic acid (A...

In this work, for the first time, a new and effective bulk modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) was prepared by TiO2 nanoparticles and chitosan and then Ni2+ ions were incorporated to this electrode by immersion of the modified electrode in nickel chloride solution. The values of electron transfer coefficient, charge-transfer rate constant and electrode surface coverage f...

Supercapacitors are electrochemical energy-storage devices that exploit the electrostatic interaction between high-surface-area nanoporous electrodes and electrolyte ions. Insight into the molecular mechanisms at work inside supercapacitor carbon electrodes is obtained with (13)C and (11)B ex situ magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS-NMR). In activated carbons soaked with an ele...

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are one of the most widely used nonmaterials. It is applied in various fields due to its special physical characteristics, excellent electronic performance and stable chemical activity. There are two types of CNT occur (a) Single walled carbon nanotube (b) Multiwalled carbon nanotube. As their names shows, SWNTs consist of a single, cylindrical graphene layer, where as MW...
