Abstract Proton exchange membrane (PEM) is developing towards thin thickness and high mechanical strength for extraordinary performance proton fuel cells (PEMFCs). However, the commercial such as Nafion can hardly satisfy practical application of PEMFCs because gas crossover low when less than 20 μm. Here, a reinforced composite (denoted P110-PFSA) was synthesized by blending poly(vinylidene fl...

Ab initio calculations at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ, B3PW91/aug-ccpVDZ, MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ, B3LYP/6-311 G(2d,2p), B3PW91/6-311 G(2d,2p), and MP2/6-311 G(2d,2p) levels are performed for the IR spectra of isolated water and methanol molecules and hydrogen-bonded water–methanol, methanol–water, and methanol–methanol complexes. Frequency shifts and changes in intensities are obtained for the proton donor ...

The largest of the gene clusters coding for proteins involved in methanol oxidation is the cluster mxaFJGIR(S)ACKLDEHB. Disruption of most of these genes leads to lack of growth on methanol. The previous results showed that the mutant lacking MxaD grows on methanol although at a low rate. This is explained by the low rate of methanol oxidation by whole cells. The specific activity of methanol d...

background: herbal distillates had been used for many centuries as herbal medicine in traditional persian medicine. recently, some studies claimed the presence of methanol in different types of herbal distillates which can cause different complications or even death as methanol is highly toxic. the main purpose of this study was to determine methanol content in the commonly-used industrial herb...

The effect of pretreatment conditions on the oxidation state and activity of micelle-synthesized Pt nanoparticles supported on ZrO2 was studied for methanol decomposition and oxidation reactions. An O2-pretreatment is observed to be effective for producing clean, stable, and active nanoparticles. Pt-oxide species formed during such pretreatments were found to have little influence in methanol d...

In the methylotrophic bacterium Methylobacterium extorquens strain AM1, MxaF, a Ca(2+)-dependent methanol dehydrogenase (MDH), is the main enzyme catalyzing methanol oxidation during growth on methanol. The genome of strain AM1 contains another MDH gene homologue, xoxF1, whose function in methanol metabolism has remained unclear. In this work, we show that XoxF1 also functions as an MDH and is ...
