copper nanoparticles were fabricated by electro-reduction of cuso4solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab) cationic surfactant as an additive through potentiostatic method. the prepared copper nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) and electrochemical methods. the sem images reveal that the nanoparticles with diameters at about 70 n...

In this study, the electrochemical mechanism of catechol in presence and absence of nitrite ion, is investigated in phosphate buffer medium (pH=7) using platinum electrode through cyclic voltammetry method in various scan rates. Electrochemical oxidation of catechol showed how quinone has changed to o-benzoquinone and also how o-benzoquinone has reacted with nitrite ion and potential scan rate ...

in this paper, the electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on aisi 321 stainless steel (aisi 321)immersed in 0.1 m naoh + 0.1 m koh solution was evaluated by different electrochemical techniques. forthis purpose, passive films were formed at open circuit potential for 1 to 12 hours and then electrochemicalmeasurements were done. the polarization curves suggested that aisi 321 showed e...

y-tial intermetallic alloy have a good potential for use as biomaterial, due to its good corrosion resistance. in this paper, two fundamental electrochemical techniques namely electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic anodic polarization were used to evaluate the corrosion performance of g-tial in ringer's solution. surface modification treatments were employed with the pu...

this paper focused on the characterization of electrochemical behavior of a martensitic stainless steel inthe acidic solutions. for this purpose, electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamicpolarization, mott schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) techniques.the potentiodynamic polarization results showed that corrosion current density of aisi 420 sta...

Herein, graphene oxide is produced by electrochemical oxidation method from graphite rod to examine its hydrogen peroxide sensing ability. The electrochemically produced graphene oxide is characterized by SEM and XRD. A few layers of Graphene Oxide(GO) sheets and corrugations in graphene sheets appeared intensely crumpled and folded into a typical wrinkled structure after electrochemical oxidat...

Three surfactants were selected to modify glassy carbon electrode including sodiumdodecylbenzenesulfonate, Tween 80 and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. The obtained nano-Au/surfactant/GCEs were characterized with scanning electron microscopy and electrochemicaltechniques. Electrochemical behavior of catechol at the nano-Au/surfactant/GCE was thoroughlyinvestigated for mo...

We introduce single-molecule spectroelectrochemistry (SMS-EC), a powerful new technique for studying electrochemical kinetics in highly heterogeneous systems. This technique uses fluorescence single-molecule spectroscopy to indirectly measure electrochemical kinetics one molecule at a time, offering for the first time the distribution of key electrochemical variables, such as the half-wave pote...
