Redox Electrochemistry of Mn(II) via Carbon Black Nanoparticle Impacts

Nanoparticle electrochemistry.

This perspective article provides a survey of recent advances in nanoscale electrochemistry, with a brief theoretical background and a detailed discussion of experimental results of nanoparticle based electrodes, including the rapidly expanding field of "impact electrochemistry". Following this, recent advances in experimental study of exotic nanoparticle electrodes are reviewed.

Redox properties of plant biomass-derived black carbon (biochar).

Soils and sediments worldwide contain appreciable amounts of thermally altered organic matter (chars). Chars contain electroactive quinoid functional groups and polycondensed aromatic sheets that were recently shown to be of biogeochemical and envirotechnical relevance. However, so far no systematic investigation of the redox properties of chars formed under different pyrolysis conditions has b...

Direct Electrochemistry of Redox Proteins and Enzymes Promoted by Carbon Nanotubes

The redox protein and enzyme, such as hemoglobin (Hb), horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and glucose oxidase (GOx), was immobilized on the surface of the carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon (CNT/GC) electrode, respectively. The cyclic voltammetric results indicated that the redox protein and enzyme underwent effective and stable direct electron transfer reaction with a pair of nearly symmetrical ...

Lev Iii Climate Change Impacts of Black Carbon Particles

Single-Nanoparticle Electrochemistry through Immobilization and Collision.

Metal nanoparticles are key electrode materials in a variety of electrochemical applications including basic electron-transfer study, electrochemical sensing, and electrochemical surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Metal nanoparticles have also been extensively applied to electrocatalytic processes in recent years due to their high catalytic activity and large surface areas. Because the...
