Using petrol as a main source of energy, during the 20th century, has caused considerable amounts of damage among which are atmospheric pollution and global warming. At the same time, many geologists and economists expect that the discovery rate of new pet ...
A miniaturized polymer electrospray-type interface is used to study metal-ion chelation with model peptides. Taking advantage of the intrinsic electrochemical behavior of electrospray, a sacrificial electrode is used to generate at the same time electrospr ...
We have investigated some anodic and cathodic transformations using boron doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. The oxidn. of a propargylic alc. as well as the arom. side chain oxidn. in water as electrolyte did not yield the desired products in high yield and s ...
Electrocatalytic properties of Ca, Sr, Mg, Fe, Co and Ni substituted lanthanum chromites deposited on 8YSZ lelectrolytes were studied using I/V and impedance techniques. The studied parameters were: the sintering temperature, the polarization, the gas and ...
The bifunctional mechanism for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) involving two distinct reaction sites is studied through the computational hydrogen electrode method for a set of catalyst materials including rutile TiO2(110), anatase TiO2(101), SnO2(110) ...
A review with refs. concerning industrial applications of diamond electrodes is presented. The problems of diamond electrodes using in electrosynthesis, oxidn. of inorg. and org. compds., waste water treatment and water disinfection are considered. [on Sci ...
The Boron-Doped Diamond (BDD) electrode is a new electrode material with high stability, even at high anodic potential. Furthermore BDD is not prone to fouling. Due to these properties, BDD can provide new opportunities in electrochem. synthesis of org. an ...
This paper describes the selective recovery of heavy metals from a chloride contg. soln. The goal is to recover each heavy metal with high purity and yield by electrodeposition. The soln. contains four different heavy metals (Zn, Pb, Cu and Cd), high amts. ...
Synthetic B-doped diamond thin film electrodes were tested for electroanal. detection of 2-naphthol. This redox reaction was studied by cyclic voltammetry in aq. acidic soln. Well-resolved oxidn. waves were obsd. and the voltammetric peaks exhibited naphth ...
