in the current work, graphene oxide (go) samples were prepared at room temperature from graphite flakes using a modified hummer's method to produce metal-free electrocatalysts. the effect of the duration of the oxidation process on the structural, chemical and physical characteristics of the go samples was evaluated using x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), ...

in the present study, a new gas diffusion electrode (gde) (based on pt/nafion membrane) is fabricated. the electrochemical results show that the new gde has the highest electrochemical activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (orr) among the three electrodes. the sem and xrd findings show that a platinum layer can be attached to nafion membrane closely and firmly with a strong peak corresp...

Silver nanoparticles have proved to possess significant antibacterial properties. Nanosilver produced by electrochemical reduction stabilized by cellulose derivatives, has been evaluated by European standards (CEN TC 216) in order to find out whether they could be applied in food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas as a suitable disinfectant. Moreover, bactericidal activity of nanosil...

Scanning electrochemical microscopy ~SECM! has been integrated with electrochemical atomic force microscopy ~EC-AFM!, and applied for in situ studies of localized corrosion of Al alloys in NaCl solution. The instrument utilizes a dual mode probe, which functions both as a normal cantilever and as an ultramicroelectrode. The I −/I 3 − redox mediator was used for mapping of local electrochemical ...

Investigation of the redox properties of drugs and their determination are performed by electrochemical techniques. Data obtained from electrochemical techniques are often correlated with molecular structure and pharmacological activity of drugs. In this regard, different modified electrodes were applied as sensors for quantification of different drugs.A nanocomposite of reduced graphene oxide-...

In the present work, the electrooxidation of formic acid and formaldehyde; potentially important fuels for future fuel cells, was investigated on the Fe3O4@Pt core-shell nanoparticles/carbon-ceramic electrode (Fe3O4@Pt/CCE). The Fe3O4@Pt nanoparticles were prepared via a simple and fast chemical method and their surface morph...
