LaNi4.4Sn0.25 and graphite powder disk electrodes sandwiched between two nickel screens were used as working electrodes in 6.0 M KOH and in 1.0 M LiPF6 in propylene carbonate-ethylene carbonate-dimethyl carbonate ~1:1:3! solution, respectively. Different electrochemical impedance spectroscopy protocols were used for analysis of the kinetics of insertion and extraction of hydrogen and lithium in...

in this investigation, attempts were directed to study the inhibitive effects of nitrite and phosphate base inhibitors for the carbon steel alloy samples, which are used in an acid gas treatment process (the sulfiran® solution), in fe-edta solution. electrochemical techniques, i.e. polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), were used to evaluate the inhibition efficie...

The authors have applied an advanced set of auto-regressive tools for identifying potentially complex, linear and nonlinear relationships in data, wherein the underlying physical relationships are not well described. In this paper these tools and techniques are described in detail, and the results of the application of these tools to evaluation of diesel engine lubricating oil health (based on ...

The inhibition effect of imidazole derivatives 4-methyl-2-propyl-1H-benzimidazole-6-carboxylic acid (MPBI) and 1,4'-Dimethyl-2'-propyl-1H,3'H-2,5'-dibenzimidazole (DPBI) against mild steel corrosion in 1 N HCl solutions were evaluated using conventional weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The weight loss results showed that ...

The understanding of the electrochemical properties of nanopores is the key factor for better understanding their performance and applications for nanopore-based sensing devices. In this study, the influence of pore dimensions of nanoporous alumina (NPA) membranes prepared by an anodization process and their electrochemical properties as a sensing platform using impedance spectroscopy was explo...

the kinetics of hydrogen evolution reaction (her) was studied in 1m naoh at various temperatures (298 to 358 k) on ni-p-c (composite electrodes. the electrochemical efficiency of the electrodes has been evaluated on the basis of electrochemical data obtained from the steady-state polarization tafel curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and cyclic voltammetry (cv) in 1m naoh solut...

Three alkoxy-wrapped push-pull porphyrins were designed and synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications. Spectral, electrochemical, photovoltaic and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy properties of these porphyrin sensitizers were well investigated to provide evidence for the molecular design.

We report the first use of an electrochemical aptasensor for selective potassium recognition, based on a conformational change, affording an electric signal transduced electrochemically by square wave voltammetry or electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

Waterborne Epoxy based coatings were prepared by using a water-borne epoxy resin and a suitable hardener. The formulation and optimization procedure were carried out on the bases of experimental designs by the mixture design technique in which the important paint properties are modeled by using special cubic model. The corrosion behavior of these coatings was investigated using electrochemical ...

electrochemical properties of various rock-shaped-cuo/graphite (g) composites and monoclinic structure cuo nanoparticles as the cathode versus a zinc plate as the anode in a 4m naoh electrolyte were elucidated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and chronopotentiometry (cp) in a two electrode configuration cell. various values of g 9, 16 and 28 wt% were prepared and studied as catho...
