the polysulfone-based membrane has been used in hemodialysis (hd) and it is continuously developed to maintain its sustainability on the subject of biocompatibility. during the polysulfone-based membrane development, several parameters should be considered to improve the membrane performances, such as excellent biocompatibility, appropriate ultrafiltration rate, and effective clearance of the t...

For the last decade, dimethyl ether (DME) has been considered a promising alternative fuel for direct fuel cells because of several advantages over methanol. In this work, PtRu catalysts with a wide range of Pt-to-Ru ratios were screened for the direct DME fuel cell (DDMEFC) performance for the first time. Overall, Pt50Ru50 performs best in the high and middle voltage ranges, whereas Pt80Ru20 p...

We report the combinatorial and high-throughput optimization of improved ternary Pt alloy electrocatalysts for the oxidation of methanol for use in direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) anodes. Following up on the discovery of a ternary Pt20Co60Ru20 catalyst with significantly improved electrocatalytic activity for methanol oxidation over standard Pt-Ru catalysts, we optimize the electrocatalytic ac...

In this work, a direct methanolehydrogen peroxide fuel cell is developed and tested. Theoretically, it is shown that the use of hydrogen peroxide in a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) not only increases the cell's voltage from 1.21 V to 1.76 V, but also reduces the activation loss of the reduction reaction as a result of two-electron transfer. Experimentally, it is demonstrated that the fuel ce...
