Sonoelectrochemistry – The Application of Ultrasound to Electrochemical Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper comprises the text of a review lecture on the subject of the effects of ultrasound upon mass transport, upon electrode surface phenomena, upon the behaviour of species and upon reaction mechanisms, and selected examples of the benefits of insonation in electroanalysis, electrosynthesis, electrodeposition and electrochemiluminescence are discussed.

Effects of Ultrasound on the Degradation of Pentachlorophenol by Boron-Doped Diamond Electrodes
The beneficial effects of the ultrasound (US) like the cleaning of electrode surface and enhancement of mass transport were evaluated in association with potentiostatic electrolyses for the degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) at 3.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl, using a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode during 270 minutes. Different decay levels of the PCP spectrum bands in 220, 251 and 321 nm, respectiv...
متن کاملPreparation of stable suspensions of gold nanoparticles in water by sonoelectrochemistry.
Stable suspensions of gold nanoparticles in water were prepared with high yield by a novel one-step ultrasound assisted electrochemical process. Various strategies based on the addition of either tailor-made polymers or mixtures of commercially available polymers, in the electrochemical bath have been found successful to avoid nanoparticles aggregation commonly observed by sonoelectrochemistry....
متن کاملSonoelectrochemical synthesis of nanoparticles.
This article reviews the nanomaterials that have been prepared to date by pulsed sonoelectrochemistry. The majority of nanomaterials produced by this method are pure metals such as silver, palladium, platinum, zinc, nickel and gold, but more recently the syntheses have been extended to include the preparation of nanosized metallic alloys and metal oxide semiconductors. A major advantage of this...
متن کاملLabel-free electrochemical biosensors for food and drug application
In food sector, there is a huge demand for rapid, reliable, user & eco-friendly biosensors to analyse the quality and safety of food products. Biosensor based methodology depends upon the recognition of a specific antigens or receptors by corresponding antibodies, aptamers or high-affinity ligands. The first scientifically commercialised sensors were the electrochemical sensors used for the ana...
متن کاملUsing sonochemistry for the fabrication of nanomaterials.
One of the reasons for the huge interest in nanomaterials originated because of the prohibitive price that commercial companies have to pay for introducing new materials into the market. Nanotechnology enables these companies to obtain new properties using old and recognized materials by just reducing their particle size. For these known materials no government approval has to be obtained. Thus...
