Biocompatibility of electrodes for stimulation are difficult to maintain homeostasis. Noble metal stimulating electrodes which are normally biocompatible on keratinized tissue become very non-biocompatible when they are interfaced with nonkeratinized tissue in an area such as the oral cavity. Composite electrodes have been made biocompatible in the oral cavity even at current densities larger t...

1. Preparation and assessment of Dimensionally Stable Anodes (DSAs) Summary: Dimensionally Stable Anodes are used in non-ferrous extractive electrometallurgy (copper, zinc...) and in water electrolysis for the oxygen evolution. They substitute in electrometallurgy lead alloys electrodes subject in normal industrial operating conditions to creep. The objective of this work is to continue what wa...

In situ electropolymerization as a facile synthetic procedure has been used to obtain highly active compositesof ionic liquid functionalized graphene oxide(FGO)and poly ortho aminophenol (POAP). Surface and electrochemical analysis have been used for characterisation of FGO-POAP composite film. Nickel was accumulated by complex formation between Ni (II) in solution and amines sites in the polym...

Plasma increases activity: A one-step synthesis of Pt-C nanowire composites using a plasma co-deposition method is reported. Electrodes with a very low Pt loading can be obtained. Pt particles with sizes ranging from 1 to 2 nm are decorating the columnar carbon nanostructures because of strong interactions. The composite microstructure is responsible for a very high metal utilization rate as ex...

Chiral properties were investigated in Cu and Cu2O composite films prepared by magneto-electrodeposition. The Cu-Cu2O films were electrodeposited in a CuSO4 and Na2SO4 aqueous solution under magnetic fields B (2 and 5 T) parallel (+B) or antiparallel (–B) to the faradaic current. The magneto-electrodeposited films were used as modified electrodes, and the chiral voltammetric behaviors were obse...
