Colloidal crystals of polystyrene (PS) beads self-assembled on Pt electrode were used as a sacrificial template to electrosynthesis thin films of macroporous Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH). Such nanostructured materials display a high internal surface area and porosity leading to enhanced electrochemical performance.

Electrosynthesis can be carried out in emulsions formed in situ via sonication of otherwise immiscible liquid/liquid systems. The basic physical principles underlying these experiments are introduced and illustrated via three examples: the electroreduction of liquid olefins, the Kolbe electrooxidation, and the electrogeneration of leuco-methylene green.

A draft genome of Sulfurospirillum sp. strain MES was isolated through taxonomic binning of a metagenome sequenced from a microbial electrosynthesis system (MES) actively producing acetate and hydrogen. The genome contains the nosZDFLY genes, which are involved in nitrous oxide reduction, suggesting the potential role of this strain in denitrification.

the synthesis of polyaniline- fe2o3 nanocomposite coating on aluminum alloy 5052 (aa5052) surface has been investigated by using the galvanostatic method. the anticorrosion performance of polyaniline-fe2o3 coating was investigated in 3.5% nacl solution by the open- circuit potential (ocp), tafel polarization technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis). the corrosion rate of polya...

electrosynthesis process has been used for preparation of zinc sulfide nanoparticles. zinc sulfide nanoparticles in different size and shapes were electrodeposited by electrolysis of zinc plate as anode in sodium sulfide solution. effects of several reaction variables, such as electrolysis voltage, sulfide ion concentration as reactant, stirring rate of electrolyte solution and temperature on p...

Draft genome sequences of Acetobacterium sp. strain MES1 and Desulfovibrio sp. strain MES5 were obtained from the metagenome of a cathode-associated community enriched within a microbial electrosynthesis system (MES). The draft genome sequences provide insight into the functional potential of these microorganisms within an MES and a foundation for future comparative analyses.

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.

The facile electrosynthesis of π-extended porphyrins is demonstrated for a series of Zn(II), In(III), Ir(III) and free-base meso-substituted derivatives containing the 4,7-dimethoxynaphthalen-1-yl substituent. Electrochemical data suggest that the overall process initially involves two stepwise one-electron oxidations, followed by an intramolecular oxidative aromatic coupling to give the electr...
