Technology Summary: Composite Electrode Material for Electrochemical Synthesis of Dimethyl Carbonate
ثبت نشده
چکیده
1. Production of polycarbonate Polycarbonate (PC) is an amorphous, thermoplastic and transparent plastic. Current annual production of polycarbonates amounts to two million tons worldwide and expected to increase about 5-10% annually (Ref [1],[2]). At present, PC is made mainly by a phosgene-based technique. Phosgene is highly toxic and considered a serious pollutant. DMC can provide an environmentally attractive alternative to Phosgene in this market.

Spectro-Electrochemical Examination of the Formation of Dimethyl Carbonate from CO and Methanol at Different Electrode Materials
In this work, we report a fundamental mechanistic study of the electrochemical oxidative carbonylation of methanol with CO for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate on metallic electrodes at low overpotentials. For the first time, the reaction was shown to take place on the metallic catalysts without need of oxidized metals or additives. Moreover, in-situ spectroelectrochemical techniques were ap...
متن کاملFabrication and Electrochemical Behavior of Monoclinic CuO and CuO/Graphite Composite Nanoparticles as Cathode in an Alkaline Zn-CuO Battery
Electrochemical properties of various rock-shaped-CuO/graphite (G) composites and monoclinic structure CuO nanoparticles as the cathode versus a zinc plate as the anode in a 4M NaOH electrolyte were elucidated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and chronopotentiometry (CP) in a two electrode configuration cell. Various values of G 9, 16 and 28 wt% were prepared and studied as catho...

In this paper, the effect of cationic and anionic ion sizes on the charge storage capability of graphene nanosheets is investigated. The electrochemical properties of the produced electrode are studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques in 3M NaCl, NaOH, and KOH electrolytes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is used to characterize the mi...
متن کاملElectrocatalytic oxidation of ethanol on the surface of the POAP/ phosphoric acid-doped ionic liquid-functionalized graphene oxide nanocomposite film
In situ electropolymerization as a facile synthetic procedure has been used to obtain highly active compositesof ionic liquid functionalized graphene oxide(FGO)and poly ortho aminophenol (POAP). Surface and electrochemical analysis have been used for characterisation of FGO-POAP composite film. Nickel was accumulated by complex formation between Ni (II) in solution and amines sites in the polym...
