In-flow electrochemical detection of chemicals in droplets with pyrolysed photoresist electrodes: application as a module for quantification of microsampled dopamine

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Joan Teixidor, Albert René Yvon Leroy

The electrochemical quantification of analytes in droplets of PBS separated by a fluorinated phase was investigated. PDMS-fused silica chips with pyrolysed photoresist electrodes were prepared using a simple fabrication technique and used to analyze drople ...

Discrete Helmholtz model: a single layer of correlated counter-ions. Metal oxides and silica interfaces, ion-exchange and biological membranes

Hubert Girault, Grégoire Clément Gschwend

The mechanism by which interfaces in solution can be polarised depends on the nature of the charge carriers. In the case of a conductor, the charge carriers are electrons and the polarisation is homogeneous in the plane of the electrode. In the case of an ...

Oxide versus Nonoxide Cathode Materials for Aqueous Zn Batteries: An Insight into the Charge Storage Mechanism and Consequences Thereof

Alfredo Pasquarello, Assil Bouzid

Aqueous Zn-ion batteries, which are being proposed as large-scale energy storage solutions because of their unparalleled safety and cost advantage, are composed of a positive host (cathode) material, a metallic zinc anode, and a mildly acidic aqueous elect ...

Pyrazolium Ionic Liquid Co-catalysts for the Electroreduction of CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev, Erfan Shirzadi

Pyrazolium ionic liquids (Pz ILs) were employed as co-catalysts for electrochemical conversion of CO2 to CO on a silver disk electrode, leading to a significant decrease in the onset potential for the reduction (ca. 500 mV). The electrochemical conversion ...

Membrane electrode assembly fabricated with the combination of Pt/C and hollow shell structured-Pt-SiO2@ZrO2 sphere for self-humidifying proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Andreas Züttel, Heena Yang, Youngdon Ko

The Pt-supported hollow structured Pt-HZrO2 with the shell thickness of 27 nm is successfully synthesized. The water retention ability of Pt-HZrO2 is significantly enhanced compared with that of SiO2@ZrO2 due to the hydrophilic hollow structured HZrO2 with ...

Enhancing Mass Transport in Redox Flow Batteries by Tailoring Flow Field and Electrode Design

Christopher Raymond Dennison

In this study, we investigate the mass transport effects of various flow field designs paired with raw and laser perforated carbon paper electrodes in redox flow batteries (RFBs). Previously, we observed significant increases in peak power density and limi ...

Centrifuge modelling of heating effects on energy pile performance in saturated sand

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Shi

The operation of energy pile in summer can expel excessive heat of the buildings into the ground by the use of a heat pump. Despite of having been implemented for decades, the design of energy pile still relies heavily on empiricism as there is still limit ...

Screen-printed electrochemical chromium (VI) sensing electrodes for effluent bioremediation monitoring

Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq

Simple, low-cost and acid-resistant carbon-based screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) addressed to detection of hexavalent chromium species, Cr(VI), in sulfuric acid at pH about 1, were prepared and characterized. Working and counter electrodes were prepared j ...
