Energy efficient copper electrowinning and direct deposition on carbon nanotube film from industrial wastewaters

Efficient treatment of forest industrial wastewaters

Simultaneous detection of ultratrace lead and copper with gold nanoparticles patterned on carbon nanotube thin film.

Highly sensitive detection of a Pb(2+)-Cu(2+) mixture using gold nanoparticles patterned on single-walled carbon nanotube (AuNP-SWCNT) film is reported. The gold nanoparticles were deposited electrochemically on carbon nanotube film using a cyclic voltammetry technique. The film showed a homogeneous size and density that could be easily controlled by the potential scanning cycle and gold precur...

Large area-aligned arrays from direct deposition of single-wall carbon nanotube inks.

Sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, MW 10 kDa), and NaCl were obtained from Sigma Aldrich. Microcalorimetry experiments were performed using a MicorCal ITC-VP at the University of Albany Proteomics Facility in Rensselaer, NY. SDBS was added to de-ionized distilled water, and placed into the injection syringe of the microcalorimeter, and added to the sample cell c...

Synergistic Effect of ZnO Nanoparticles and Carbon Nanotube and Polymeric Film on Electrochemical Oxidation of Acyclovir

A simple and selective carbon paste electrode has been developed for the electrochemicaldetermination of acyclovir (ACV). This electrode was designed by incorporation of multiwalledcarbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and ZnO nanoparticles into the carbon paste matrix,and then poly (o-aminophenol; OAP) film were subsequently electropolymerized on it. Thesurface structure of nanoparticles were characterize...
