Carbon black dispersions are superior to the best commercial silver and ceramic particle thermal pastes for providing high thermal contact conductance across mating surfaces that are smooth (0.05 lm). For mating surfaces that are rough (15 lm), the combined use of carbon black and silver is more effective than carbon, silver or ceramic pastes. The use of a silver paste to even out the rough sur...

In this study, the novel surface ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) particles were prepared and applied as a electrode modifier in stripping voltammetric detection of lead(II) ion. A carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with IIP nanoparticles and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was used for accumulation of toxic lead ions. Various factors that govern on electrochemical signals including carbon...

Carbon paste electrodes have been modified with some lipidsfor the sensitive and selective detection of the antidepressant (Desipramine). Voltammetric experimental conditions were optimized taking into account the importance of quantifying desipramine in the complex media and in the pharmaceutical formulations. The sensor(Lauric acid modified carbon paste electrode) responds to desipramine givi...

this paper describes the development, electrochemical characterization and utilization of novel modified molybdenum (vi) complex-carbon nanotube paste electrode for the electrocatalytic determination of ascorbic acid (aa). the electrochemical profile of the proposed modified electrode was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry (cv) that showed a shift of the oxidation peak potential of aa about 235 mv ...

in this paper, a nanostructured modified electrode was fabricated by incorporating of 2,2′-[1,9-nonanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone (nnh) as a newly synthesized modifier and tio2 nanoparticles to the carbon paste (mtcpe) and then was used for the electroanalysis of epinephrine (ep). the electrochemical studies were carried out by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and di...

A simple, accurate and sensitive voltammetric method for determination of Anagrelide (ANG) using β cyclodextrin modified carbon paste electrode (CDMCPE) is developed. CDMCPE exhibited significantly increased sensitivity and selectivity for ANG compared to Carbon paste electrode. Peak currents showed a linear response in the concentration range 1.8 × 10-9 to 1.6 × 10-6 M at CDMCPE. Limit of dete...

A carbon nanotube/La-doped TiO₂ (La-TiO₂) nanocomposite (CLTN) was prepared by a procedure similar to a complex/adsorption process. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that the La-TiO₂ distributes on the carbon nanotube walls. The CLTN was mixed with paraffin to form a CLTN paste for the CLTN paste electrode (CLTNPE). The electrochemical characteristics of CLTNPE were compared with t...

This research investigates changes in the nanostructure and the nanoscale local mechanical properties of cement paste with microand nano-modifiers. Silica fume and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used as microand nano-modifiers. An effective method of dispersing CNTs in cement matrix was developed. A detailed study on the effects of CNTs concentration and aspect ratio on the fracture p...

A method for producing radio-wave-reflecting concrete, which is potentially useful for lateral guidance in automatic highways, is provided. In the form of cement paste, it contains a small amount (0.5 vol.%) of 0.1 mm diameter carbon filaments as an admixture. The radiation absorbed is negligible compared to that reflected. The reflectivity at 1 GHz is 10 dB higher for radiowave-reflecting ceme...
