Classical electrodes for Li-ion technology operate via an insertion/de-insertion process. Recently, conversion electrodes have shown the capability of greater capacity, but have so far suffered from a marked hysteresis in voltage between charge and discharge, leading to poor energy efficiency and voltages. Here, we present the electrochemical reactivity of MgH(2) with Li that constitutes the fi...

Transition metal oxides that mix electronic and ionic conductivity are essential active components of many electrochemical charge-storage devices, ranging from primary alkaline cells to more advanced rechargeable Li-ion batteries. In these devices, charge storage occurs via cation-insertion/deinsertion mechanisms in conjunction with the reduction/oxidation of metal sites in the oxide. Batteries...

Infrared switching electrochromic devices based on tungsten oxide" (2000). Faculty Publications from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. 4. Different types of electrochromic devices for thermal emittance modulation were developed in the spectral region from mid-to far-infrared ͑2–40 ␮m͒. In all devices polycrystalline and amorphous tungsten oxide have been used as electrochromi...

metal ions <A13+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Cr3+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, K+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Na+, alld Zn2+) on antioxidatiye activities of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) were studied by an oxygen electrode method. The antioxidatiye activities of catechins were high and censtant at pH 6-12, but decreased in acidic and strollg alkaline solutions. Copper(II) ion the most strongly increased the antioxidative ...

A metal-oxygen battery (sometimes referred to as a ‘metal-air’ battery) is a cell chemistry in which one of the reactants is gaseous oxygen, O2. Oxygen enters the cell typically in the positive electrode—perhaps after being separated from an inflow of air—and dissolves in the electrolyte. The negative electrode is typically a metal monolith or foil. Upon discharge, metal cations present in the ...

Oxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) is very important, owing to its use in fuel cells. Modification of electrodes surfaces is an excellent way to decrease the overpotentials as well as to increase the current density of the voltammetric response.pt as most efficient metal catalyst can easily be poisoned by product of oxidation and also it has high cost. In this work an efficient and low cost elect...

We report the design and characterization of a metal ion-imidazole self-assembled monolayer on a gold electrode. The resultant monolayer is well-suited for direct immobilization of histidine and methylene blue-modified peptides.

The stability constants of Cu'(l1) glycine complexes in 0.7 M NaC104 and 0.7M NaN03 media were evaluated using Cu ( 1 1 ) ion selective electrode. The stability constant data are consistent with earlier reports of other metal ion complexes of glycine. The distribution level of Cu ( 1 1 ) glycine complexes in presence of other complexing ligands of marine environment has also been numerically ev...

An unprecedented 3D hetero-triple-walled metal-organic framework is obtained by straightforward elaboration of the mixed molecular building block (MBB) strategy. In this approach, multiple individual flexible and rigid MBBs are integrated into one composite building block as separate layers, which are of the same shape but different sizes. This MOF shows exceptional water stability and the appl...
