Quantum chemical studies of reactive species in water
In this thesis, quantum chemical methods have been applied to elucidate the thermodynamics and the kinetics of reactions involving reactive species in water. Due to their high reactivity in water, many transient species are difficult to study by experiment ...
EPFL2016Ice VII from aqueous salt solutions: From a glass to a crystal with broken H-bonds
It has been known for decades that certain aqueous salt solutions of LiCl and LiBr readily form glasses when cooled to below approximate to 160 K. This fact has recently been exploited to produce a "salty" high-pressure ice form: When the glass is compress ...
Nature Publishing Group2016Temperature Sensitivity of Nanochannel Electrical Conductance
Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Mojtaba Taghipoor
Electrical measurement is a widely used technique for the characterization of nanofluidic devices. The electrical conductivity of electrolytes is known to be dependent on temperature. However, the similarity of the temperature sensitivity of the electrical ...
Amer Chemical Soc2015Description of the capacity degradation mechanism in LaNi5-based alloy electrodes
Philippe Mauron, Mariana Spodaryk, Marco Roman Holzer
The mechanism of the capacity degradation of LaNi5-based alloy electrodes was investigated with a special focus on the influence of the alloy and surface composition, as well as the unique structure obtained by gas atomisation. The electrochemical properti ...
Elsevier Science Sa2015Nanocalorimetric platform for accurate thermochemical studies in microliter volumes
Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Rima Padovani
A straightforward and general way for monitoring chemical reactions is via their thermal signature. Such approach requires however an experimental setup with a high thermal stability that simultaneously allows time-resolved heat detection with high sensiti ...
Royal Soc Chemistry2015Ion Selectivity of Crown Ethers Investigated by UV and IR Spectroscopy in a Cold Ion Trap
Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi
Electronic and vibrational spectra of benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) and benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) complexes with alkali metal ions, M+•B15C5 and M+•B18C6 (M = Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs), are measured using UV photodissociation (UVPD) and IR-UV double resonance spectr ...
American Chemical Society2012Online elemental analysis of process gases with ICP-OES: A case study on waste wood combustion
Christian Ludwig, Marco Wellinger
A mobile sampling and measurement system for the analysis of gaseous and liquid samples in the field was developed. An inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), which is built into a van, was used as detector. The analytical syste ...
Elsevier2012Development and Application of Devices for Online Trace Element Analysis of Thermal Process Gases from Woody Feedstocks
When using natural or waste wood in thermo-chemical conversion processes, the presence of a number of heteroatoms (e.g. sulfur, chlorine, potassium and sodium or heavy metals) may hinder the processes themselves as well as pose a threat to equipment and/or ...
