Single-walled carbon nanotubes as nano-electrode and nano-reactor to control the pathways of a redox reaction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Single-walled carbon nanotubes have been demonstrated as effective nanoscale containers for a redox active organometallic complex Cp(Me)Mn(CO)3, acting simultaneously as nano-electrode and nano-reactor. Extreme spatial confinement of the redox reaction within the nanotubes changes its pathway compared to bulk solution due to stabilisation of a reactive intermediate.

Comparison of Efficiency of Nano-magnetic Iron, Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes and Hybrid Nano-reactor in Removal of Xylene from Aqueous Solutions and Adsorption Isotherms
Background & objectives: Xylene, which can pollute the water sources, is widely used as a solvent in insecticide manufacture, dye and leather and other industries. Adsorption is one of the most common processes used to treat the contaminated aqueous solutions by xylene. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the xylene removal efficiency and adsorption isotherms of magnetic nanoparticl...
متن کاملApplication of CuO nano particle/multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposite modified electrode for simultaneous determination of dopamine and rutin in real samples
Background: In this work, a new method was developed for simultaneous determination of dopamine and rutin at glassy carbon electrode modified with CuO nanoparticles doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CuONPs–MWNT/GCE). This modified electrode has shown excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of rutin in acetate buffer solution (pH=5). The modified electrode lowered the overpot...

In this research, a glassy carbon electrode was coated with a thin layer of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the presence of the surfactant and subsequently was electro-polymerized with Poly-L-arginine (P-L-Arg). The prepared electrode was used as an effective sensor for the quantitative detection of Rutin (Ru). The fabricated electrode exhibited good electrochemical performance with low electr...
