Since few decades the search of new catalysts formulations for fuel cell applications has motivated numerous projects especially due to the future lack of fossil fuel, environmental and economical reasons. Consequently, Direct Alcohol Fuel Cell (DAFC) or D ...
In this thesis, the electrochemical promotion of lr and Rh based catalysts was studied for the complete combustion of ethylene and propylene. The study was performed by using two types of electrocatalytical cells: a classical, pellet type cell and a tubula ...
We report the detection of protein molecules with nanofabricated pores using the resistive pulse sensing method. A 20-nm -thick silicon nitride membrane with a nanofabricated pore measuring about 55 nm in diameter separated an electrolyte cell into two com ...
The electrochem. promoted induction of self-sustained catalytic rate and potential oscillations during C2H4 oxidn. was studied over sputtered Rh thin (40 nm catalyst films interfaced with ZrO2 (8 mol% Y2O3)). The reaction rate oscillates simultaneously wit ...
The electrochemical oxidation of methanol and formic acid in 1 M HClO4 is studied on boron-doped diamond electrode using differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS). DEMS is used to identify products and intermediates of the reaction monitored on ...
There is currently much controversy surrounding homogeneous arene hydrogenation catalysis since it has been suggested that the active catalysts are actually heterogeneous. Since many of the proposed homogeneous catalysts operate in water under biphasic con ...
The search of new energy sources has motivated during the last few years numerous research projects due to environmental, economical and political reasons. One of the main subjects of these works is the development of fuel cells. Within this framework the ...
Pt nanoparticles were synthesized by the H2O-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion technique and deposited onto B-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. TEM showed that Pt particles size is limited to 2-5 nm range with narrow distribution. Anodic treatment at high overpoten ...
The chemical and electrochemical promotion of highly dispersed nanofilm Rh catalysts (dispersion: about 10 %, film thickness: 40 nm) has been investigated for the first time. To this end Rh metal was sputter-deposited, either on a purely ionic conductor (8 ...
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 ...
