Cationic surfactant-selective potentiometric sensors based on neutral ion-pair carrier complexes

Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane electrodes to determine monomer concentrations of tetradecyltrimethylammonium ion (TTA⁺) and hexadecylpyridinium ion (HPy⁺) based on neutral ion-pair carrier complexes of tetradecyltrimethylammonium dodecyl sulfate (TTA⁺-DS⁻) and hexadecylpyridinium dodecyl sulfate (HPy⁺-DS⁻), respectively, are reported here. The electrodes exhibit a Nernstian slope of 59 mV per decade for TTA⁺ and a sub-Nernstian slope of 34.5 mV per decade for HPy⁺ ions. The TTA⁺ ion-selective electrode (ISE) and the HPy⁺-ISE can determine the monomer units down to concentrations as low as 4.0×10⁻⁴M and 1.66×10⁻⁵ M, respectively. The effect of various additives, such as the anionic polyelectrolyte sodium dextran sulfate and macrocyclic β-cyclodextrin, on the surface activity exhibited by the cationic surfactants TTA⁺-DS⁻ and HPy⁺-DS⁻, in the presence of background concentrations of NaCl was also examined with surfactant-selective sensors. The Gibbs free energy of micelle formation (ΔG _m ) of both surfactants in the presence of various additives was calculated and found to be less favorable with respect to an increase in the amount of additives due to less availability of cationic surfactant monomer units. The ion-pair complexes TTA⁺-DS⁻ and HPy⁺-DS⁻ were found to behave as selective carrier compounds in PVC membranes in determining the concentration of monomer units of both TTA⁺ and HPy⁺, respectively. The proposed sensors worked well at a fairly acidic pH of 1–6.5 with response time of 60 s. The sensors responded well to the surfactant ions even in the presence of additives at lower concentration. The lifetime of the sensors is 3 mon.     

Electrodeposition of catalytically active nickel for the oxygen evolution reaction — effects of anionic composition

Nickel electrodes were prepared by electrodeposition in electrolytes of various anionic compositions. The deposition conditions and bath types were evaluated with special emphasis on the electrocatalytic properties for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Electrochemical characterizations in a 5 mol/L KOH solution at 25°C showed that the electrode deposited from the chloride bath, having a low Tafel slope of 50 mV/dec and an overpotential of 396 mV at 100 mA/cm², is the most catalytically active among electrodes prepared in electrolytes of various anionic compositions. The electrode activity for the OER is related to the real surface areas, which depend on the anion compositions in the deposition bath and the deposition conditions.     

Ni添加对Ti_(0.47)V_(0.28)Mn_(0.15)Cr_(0.1)储氢合金电化学性能的影响

通过X射线衍射谱(XRD)、气态吸放氢行为(PCT曲线)、电化学充放电性能、电化学阻抗谱(EIS),考察了Ni添加对Ti_(0.47)V_(0.28)Mn_(0.15)Cr_(0.1)储氢合金的电化学性能的影响。结果表明:Ti_(0.47)V_(0.28)Mn_(0.15)Cr_(0.1)的电化学活性很差,在碱液中几乎不能放电,添加Ni之后得到了明显改善。随着Ni含量的增加,Ti_(0.47)V_(0.28)Mn_(0.15)Cr_(0.1)Ni_x(x=0～0.25)合金电极的放电容量先增大后减小,在x=0.15时达到最大值310mA·h·g~(-1)。     

Studies on film potentiometric stripping analysis: effects of electrochemical parameters

Film potentiometric stripping analysis (PSA) is a novel method for concentrating the test ion directly on a glassy carbon electrode with subsequent stripping by a chemical oxidant, the redissolution step being followed by a chronopotentiometric sequence. The electrochemical parameters governing both preconcentration and redissolution steps are studied on a rotating disk electrode: experimental results are compared with the theoretical developments recently published. Except for the influence of rde rotation rates on each step and on analytical parameters, experiments and theory are in agreement. Discrepancies concerning the rotation rate effects are studied by potentiostatic coulometry and voltammetry measurements in regard to the preconcentration step: the rotation rate effects are based on the physical behaviour of the rde. Routine analysis is carried out using film PSA, Pb(II) as the test ion and Fe(III) as oxidizing agent, in perchlorate medium.

Attrition of spherical electrode carbon particles during batch fluidized combustion

Spherical electrode carbon particles prepared from carbon rods of dry cell batteries have been used to study the attrition behaviour in a bubbling fluidized bed combustor. Experiments have been conducted in a 40 mm I.D. and 1 m high fluidized bed combustor operated at 1 m/s superficial velocity. The bed was operated with nitrogen and with two different oxygen concentrations at 850°C to study the effect of combustion on attrition of these particles. The experimental technique used allowed the time resolution of attrited fines generation, providing detailed curves of attrition rates as a function of time. Attrition rate constants have been evaluated. Results show an enhancement of attrition due to combustion even for spherical, homogeneous and smooth particles.
