碳酸乙烯酯添加剂对BMImBF4离子液体作为镁沉积—溶解电解液的改性研究

利用恒电流沉积-溶解、交流阻抗、XRD和SEM方法研究了在室温下EC(碳酸乙烯酯)添加剂对BMImBF₄离子液体作为镁沉积电解液的改善情况. 在Mg(CF₃SO₃)₂浓度为0.3 mol•L^－1的BMImBF₄电解液中加入w＝5%(质量分数)的EC后, 沉积—溶解循环过程更加稳定, 并且循环次数明显增加, 可以达到265次以上; 交流阻抗结果显示, 膜电阻和电荷转移电阻有所减少; 从SEM图可以观察到, 在沉积初期原本枝晶态的镁在加入EC后以颗粒状沉积. 可能是EC添加剂在反应中形成的低聚物覆盖在镁的表面, 抑制了枝晶的形成.

Structural,thermal, and impedance properties of a gel polymer electrolyte containing ionic liquid

The gel polymer electrolytes composed of ionic liquid, 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMImBF₄) and the copolymer of acrylonitrile (AN), methyl methacrylate (MMA), poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMEMA) are synthesized and characterized by FT‐IR spectra, TGA, DSC, and AC impedance measurements. IR spectra show that there is an interaction between PEO side chains of the copolymer and imidazolium cations. TGA measurements indicate that the gel polymer electrolytes are stable until 120°C. By using the equivalent circuit proposed, the experimental data and the simulated data fit very well. The bulk resistance R_b is found to decrease with the increase in BMImBF₄ content.

The Effect of Ionic Liquid Covalent Bonding to Sol‐Gel Processed Film on Ion Accumulation and Transfer

Accumulation of electroactive anions into a silicate film with covalently bonded room temperature ionic liquid film deposited on an indium tin oxide electrode was studied and compared with an electrode modified with an unconfined room temperature ionic liquid. A thin film containing imidazolium cationic groups was obtained by sol‐gel processing of the ionic liquid precursor 1‐methyl‐3‐(3‐trimethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide together with tetramethylorthosilicate on the electrode surface. Profilometry shows that the obtained film is not smooth and its approximate thickness is above 1 μm. It is to some extent permeable for a neutral redox probe – 1,1′‐ferrocene dimethanol. However, it acts as a sponge for electroactive ions like Fe(CN)₆^3?, Fe(CN)₆^4? and IrCl₆^3?. This effect can be traced by cyclic voltammetry down to a concentration equal to 10^?7 mol dm^?3. Some accumulation of the redox active ions also occurs at the electrode modified with the ionic liquid precursor, but the voltammetric signal is significantly smaller compare with the bare electrode. The electrochemical oxidation of the redox liquid t‐butyloferrocene deposited on silicate confined ionic liquid film is followed by the expulsion of the electrogenerated cation into an aqueous solution. On the other hand, the voltammetry obtained with the electrode modified with t‐butyloferrocene solution in the ionic liquid precursor exhibits anion sensitive voltammetry. This is explained by anion insertion into the unconfined ionic liquid deposit following t‐butylferricinium cation formation.

五种1-烷基-2,3-二甲基咪唑型离子液体的合成及作为Li/LiFeO_4电池电解液的研究

Effects of Samarium on the Properties of the Anodic Pb（Ⅱ） Oxides Film Formed on Pb in Sulfuric Acid Solution

The effects of samarium on the properties of the anodic Pb(II) oxides films formed on lead at 0.9 V (vs. Hg/Hg₂SO₄) in 4.5 mol/L H₂SO₄ solution were studied using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron micrographs (SEM). The experimental results show that adding Sm to lead metal can inhibit the growth of the Pb(II) oxides film effectively, and reduce the resistance of the PbO oxides film obviously. The addition of Sm increases the porosity of the anodic film, which may cause the increase of the ionic conductance produced by the interstitial liquid among the PbO particles in the film and lead to the decrease of the resistance of the anodic film.     

Direct Electrochemistry of Myoglobin in a Nafion‐Ionic Liquid Composite Film Modified Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode

In this paper two kinds of ionic liquids (ILs) were used for the construction of a myoglobin (Mb) electrochemical biosensor. Firstly a hydrophilic ionic liquid of 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF₄) was used as binder to prepare a carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE), then a Nafion and hydrophobic ionic liquid of 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIMPF₆) composite film was applied on the surface of the CILE. The direct electrochemistry of Mb in the Nafion‐BMIMPF₆/CILE was achieved with the cathodic and anodic peak potentials located at ?0.345 V and ?0.213 V (vs. SCE). The formal potential (E°′) was located at ?0.279 V, which was the characteristic of Mb Fe^III/Fe^II redox couples. The electrochemical behaviors of Mb in the Nafion‐ionic liquid composite film modified CILE were carefully investigated. The Mb modified electrode showed good electrocatalytic behaviors to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and NaNO₂. Based on the Nafion‐BMIMPF₆/Mb/CILE, a new third generation reagentless biosensor was constructed.     

Impedance and Photoadmittance of Passive Iron Electrodes in Different Solutions

Electric characteristics of the oxide film at the surface of an anodized iron electrode in 0.5 M Na₂SO₄, NaNO₃, and Na₂MoO₄ solutions are studied using the impedance and photoadmittance measurements and taking polarization curves. The impedance frequency spectra correspond to an equivalent circuit comprising two parallel (RC) chains connected in a series. The relaxation time of the high-frequency circuit approaches that of the photopotential; hence, it can be related to the impedance of the oxide film. The low-frequency component of the impedance describes the impedance of the film/solution interface. In the Na₂SO₄ solution, the oxide film resistance is significantly higher and the capacitance is lower than in two other solutions, which can be explained by the film thickening. The marked concurrent decrease in the resistance and increase in the capacitance of the film/solution interface at 1.2 V in all solutions is caused by oxygen adsorption, which precedes oxygen evolution.     

Fabrication and Electrochemical Behavior of Hemoglobin Modified Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode

A new hemoglobin (Hb) and room temperature ionic liquid modified carbon paste electrode was constructed by mixing Hb with 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIMPF₆) and graphite powder together. The Hb modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (Hb‐CILE) was further characterized by FT‐IR spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Hb in the carbon ionic liquid electrode remained its natural structure and showed good direct electrochemical behaviors. A pair of well‐defined quasireversible redox peaks appeared with the apparent standard potential (E′) as ?0.334 (vs. SCE) in pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution (PBS). The electrochemical parameters such as the electron transfer number (n), the electron transfer coefficient (α) and the heterogeneous electron transfer kinetic constant (k_s) of the electrode reaction were calculated with the results as 1.2, 0.465 and 0.434 s^?1, respectively. The fabricated Hb‐CILE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of H₂O₂. The calibration range for H₂O₂ quantitation was between 8.0×10^?6 mol/L and 2.8×10^?4 mol/L with the linear regression equation as I_ss (μA)=0.12 C (μmol/L)+0.73 (n=18, γ=0.997) and the detection limit as 1.0×10^?6 mol/L (3σ). The apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K_M^app) of Hb in the modified electrode was estimated to be 1.103 mmol/L. The surface of this electrochemical sensor can be renewed by a simple polishing step and showed good reproducibility.     

Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode Modified with Nafion/Hemoglobin/DNA Composite Film

A new electrochemical biosensor was constructed by immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) on a DNA modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE), which was prepared by using 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF₄) as the modifier. UV‐vis absorption spectroscopic result indicated that Hb remained its native conformation in the composite film. The fabricated Nafion/Hb/DNA/CILE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). A pair of well‐defined redox peaks was obtained on the modified electrode, indicated that the Nafion and DNA composite film provided an excellent biocompatible microenvironment for keeping the native structure of Hb and promoting the direct electron transfer rate of Hb with the basal electrode. The electrochemical parameters of Hb in the composite film were further calculated with the results of the charge transfer coefficient (α) and the apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k_s) as 0.41 and 0.31 s^?1. The proposed electrochemical biosensor showed good electrocatalytic response to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA), H₂O₂, NO and the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K_M^app) for the electrocatalytic reaction was calculated, respectively.
