CuO have potential applications in various fields, such as gas sensors, solar energy and catalysis. With the aim of trying to obtain CuO with a high specific surface area, an oxalate precipitation route followed by thermal decomposition was studied. Four d ...
This paper presents the optimization of a micro gas preconcentrator based on a micro-channel in porous and non-porous silicon filled with an adequate adsorbent. This micro gas preconcentrator is both applicable in the fields of atmospheric pollution monito ...
Physico-chem. adsorption of mols. in microporous materials has long been used in industrial processes and significant efforts have been expended in understanding the myriad of structure-property relationships of interest. Efforts are currently being applie ...
The key-point for the development of an amperometric sensor is the immobilization of the enzyme. In the present work we use biosensors based on glucose oxidase (GOD) onto electrodes nanostructured with carbon nanotubes (CNT), to be employed in cell culture ...
The development of new high performance, ultra-thin organic coatings requires a strategy that has to consider a large number of surface treatment variables such as binding moieties, substrate, and adsorption conditions (e.g. temperature, solvent, concentra ...
Molecular dynamics simulations were used to investigate possible explanations for experimentally observed differences in the growth modification of calcite particles by two organic additives, polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyaspartic acid (p-ASP). The more r ...
We investigate the electronic coupling between copper hexadecafluoro-phthalocyanine (F16CuPc) and epitaxial graphene (EG) on 6H-SiC (0001) using a combined approach of low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy and electronic structure calculations. T ...
In this work, molecular simulations were performed to evaluate the separation performance of two typical zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), ZIF-68 and ZIF-69, for CO2/N2, CO2/CH 4, and CH4/N2 mixtures. To do this, we first identified a suitable force ...
The ability to predict the distribution of metals in geologic systems requires a modeling approach that can describe the competition among adsorbing surfaces for the metal of interest. In this study, we test if a component additivity (CA) surface complexat ...
