High pressure–high temperature (HP/HT) methods are utilized to introduce structural modifications in the layered lithium transition metal oxides LiCoO2 and Li[NixLi1/3 2x/3Mn2/3 x/3]O2 where x 1⁄4 0.25 and 0.5. The electrochemical property to structure relationship is investigated combining computational and experimental methods. Both methods agree that the substitution of transition metal ions...

Laboratory experiments were performed to evaluate the use of electrochemical treatment for the decomposition of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), as well as other perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs), in aqueous film forming foam (AFFF)-impacted groundwater collected from a former firefighter training area and PFAA-spiked synthetic groundwater. Using a commercially...

Graphene ink is a commercialized product in the graphene industry with promising potential application in electronic device design. However, the limitation of the graphene ink is its low electronic performance due to the ink preparation protocol. In this work, we proposed a simple post-treatment of graphene ink coating via electrochemical oxidation. The electronic conductivity of the graphene i...

the electrocatalytic degradation of methyl orange (mo) on pbo2-tio2 nanocomposite electrodes was studied by cyclic voltammetry and bulk electrolysis. the results reveal that pbo2-tio2 nanocomposite electrodes possess higher oxygen evolution overpotential than pbo2 electrodes and the electrocatalytic degradation of mo on the electrodes is direct oxidation process. the influence of experimental p...

In this investigation, attempts were directed to study the inhibitive effects of nitrite and phosphate base inhibitors for the carbon steel alloy samples, which are used in an acid gas treatment process (The SULFIRAN® solution), in Fe-EDTA solution. Electrochemical techniques, i.e. polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were used to evaluate the inhibition efficie...
