The stability of hydrophobic surface has an important influence on the application superhydrophobic function. destruction micro-nano structures material is main factor leading to loss property. In order improve corrosion resistance surface, Ni-Co-BN nanocomposite coatings with property were prepared 45 steel by two-step jet electrodeposition. morphology, water contact angle, and samples measure...

Presently, fiber reinforced polymers are gaining more importance in the market for their lightweight, high strength to weight ratio, durability, stiffness, damping property, flexural strength, wear, impact, and fire resistance. They have been used as a substitute traditional steel reinforcing bars they excellent electrochemical corrosion resistant property. These become essential materials main...

The fabrication of ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs) for analytical electrochemical applications has been explored, using boron-doped diamond as the active electrode material in an insulating coating formed by deposition of electrophoretic paint. Because of the rough nature of the diamond film, the property of such coatings that is normally exploited in the fabrication of UMEs, namely the tendency to...

Monodispersed polypyrrole (PPy) nanospheres were physically incorporated as guest species into stacked graphene layers without significant property degradation, thereby facilitating the formation of unique three-dimensional hybrid nanoarchitecture. The electrochemical properties of the graphene/particulate PPy (GPPy) nanohybrids were dependent on the sizes and contents of the PPy nanospheres. T...

Neural electrodes hold tremendous potential for improving understanding of brain function and restoring lost neurological functions. Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and dexamethasone (Dex)-doped poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) coatings have shown promise to improve chronic neural electrode performance. Here, we employ electrochemical techniques to characterize the coating in vivo....

We report a novel electrochemical sensing system for single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) with a specific sequence based on the catalytic reduction of protons with platinum deposited by the electrochemical reduction of chloro-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine platinum(II) chloride dihydrate (Pt complex) on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode. There was no catalytic property observed for proton reduction at the GC elec...

Nanostructured cellular polymeric materials with controlled cell sizes, dispersity, architectures, and functional groups provide opportunities in separation technology, smart catalysts, and controlled drug delivery and release. This paper discusses porous membranes formed in a simple electrostatic complexation process using a NH3 base treatment from redox responsive poly(ferrocenysilane) (PFS)-...

Three dimensional hierarchical nanostructures have attracted great attention for electrochemical energy storage applications. In this work, self-supported TiO2@Ni(OH)2 core-shell nanowire arrays are prepared on carbon fiber paper via the combination of hydrothermal synthesis and chemical bath deposition. In this core-shell hybrid, the morphology and wall size of the interconnected nanoflake she...
