白藜芦醇对长期贮存锂离子电池电解液性能的影响

锂离子电池电解液从制造完成到使用,一般都会经历灌装、运输和贮存的过程,了解长期贮存过程对锂离子电池电解液性能的影响,对锂离子电池的生产具有一定的理论指导意义。本文运用电化学阻抗谱(EIS)测试并结合循环伏安法(CV)测试、充放电测试、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)等研究了1 mol·L^-1 LiPF₆-EC:EMC基础电解液中添加不同浓度白藜芦醇(RES)时,在长期贮存过程中对石墨电极性能的影响及机制。研究结果表明,新鲜的基础电解液在经历6个月的贮存后,石墨电极在其中无论是可逆循环容量还是循环稳定性(容量保持率)均出现大幅度的下降。这主要是由于在经历6个月贮存后的基础电解液中,石墨电极表面形成的 SEI 膜较厚,进而导致锂离子嵌入过程的不稳定造成的。在基础电解液中添加不同浓度的白藜芦醇均能有效抑制电解液长期贮存造成的石墨电极在其中电化学性能的下降,当基础电解液中含有200 ppm白藜芦醇经历6个月贮存后,石墨电极无论是可逆容量还是循环性能稳定性甚至优异于在新鲜的电解液中。     

基于硅基硼掺金刚石电极的电化学-原位核磁共振波谱电解池的设计、制备与可行性研究

电化学与核磁共振波谱联用技术（EC-NMR）可以实时监测电化学反应过程,从分子水平阐释反应机理,是一种非常有前景的无损在线检测技术。本文首次报道以硅基硼掺金刚石（Si/BDD）作为工作电极的原位EC-NMR三电极单室电解池的设计和制作。研究表明,由于尺寸12.5 mm × 1.2 mm × 0.5 mm的Si/BDD电极在核磁检测区的体积较小且电极材料厚度较薄,因此该电极对射频场的阻碍较小,对磁场均匀性破坏也相应较小。运用自制的EC-NMR电解池并以经典的对苯二酚（QH ₂）电氧化生成对苯二醌（Q）作为模型体系,原位研究了该电化学反应的整个动态过程。在1.2 V恒电位下电解0.1 mol·L^-1 QH₂ 64分钟,监测到位于6.83 ppm处的Q特征峰逐渐生成,反应过程中核磁谱峰未发生裂分或明显的展宽。结果表明,应用本文所设计并制备的原位EC-NMR电解池,可有效对电化学反应物和产物进行定性、定量分析,将可在后续的电化学原位核磁波谱研究中发挥重要作用。

Recovery values between 92.3 and 98.6 % showed that this approach can be successfully used for determination of Cd(II) in water samples.     

Determination of Tedizolid Phosphate Using Graphene Nanocomposite Based Solid Contact Ion Selective Electrode; Green Profile Assessment by Eco-scale and GAPI Approach

Antibiotics determination plays a major role in minimizing antimicrobial resistance starting from quality control of pharmaceutical formulations to therapeutic drug monitoring. Green modified glassy carbon electrode has been developed for determination of tedizolid phosphate; new antibiotic prodrug; in presence of its active metabolite. The graphene transducer interlayer, dispersed with PVC, improved the electrode stability and standard potential reproducibility. Graphene hydrophobicity prevented the water layer formation between the sensing layers that decreased the potential drift down to 267 μV h⁻¹. Electrochemical impedance showed a low resistance value for graphene containing sensor due to its high electron transfer ability.     

An Efficient Novel Electrochemical Sensor for Simultaneous Determination of Vitamin C and Aspirin Based on a PMR/Zn-Al LDH/GCE

A sensitive, low-cost, and simple electrochemical sensor based on Zn−Al layered double hydroxide (Zn−Al LDH) combined with a polymer film of methyl red (PMR) to modify a GCE has been created for the first time. Using cyclic voltammetry (CV), the electrochemical characteristics of the newly fabricated sensor were investigated. The characterised PMR/Zn−Al LDH/GCE shows high electro-catalytic activity towards the vitamin C (AA) and aspirin (ASA) oxidation. Schematic fabrication of PMR/Zn−Al LDH/GCE for the determination of AA or ASA was presented. The new sensor demonstrated superior analytical efficiency for the simultaneous identification of AA and ASA traces in well-spaced anodic peaks, even in the presence of certain intervening species. According to experimental results, the fabricated sensor represented two well-separated oxidation peaks for AA and ASA oxidation with potential difference of 799 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl). The linear dependences of the anodic peak currents of AA and ASA on their concentrations in the ranges of 0.10–53.17 μM are good. The detection limits of AA and ASA at the PMR/Zn−Al LDH/GCE were found to be 1.26 and 1.27 μM, respectively. Meanwhile, the quantification limits of AA and ASA were calculated as 4.21 and 4.25 μM, respectively. On other hand, the limit of detection (LODs) of AA and ASA oxidation were determined to be 0.47 and 0.21 μM, respectively, according to DPV method. The effect of scan rate (100 to 800 mV/s) on the anodic peak currents of AA and ASA was examined. A sensing model mechanism has been suggested and discussed in detail. Finally, the proposed sensor displayed a good reproducibility, stability and selectivity. The developed sensor was eventually used to successfully detect AA and ASA in urine samples.

In this present study, to determine paracetamol, an electroanalytical method is presented using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at 3-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole (3AT) coated glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The electrochemical characterization and electron transfer behavior of this prepared electrode in the mixture of K₄[Fe(CN)₆]/K₃[Fe(CN)₆] contains 0.1 M KCl was confirmed by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods.

The effect of pH was studied on the redox reaction of paracetamol in phosphate buffer in the range of pH 3.0–9.0. The limit of detection was 0.043 μM (3 s/m) for 3AT-GC electrode. The developed electrode was successfully utilized in pharmaceutical samples.

The development and fabrication of a simple, portable, and sensitive detection tool to precisely monitor nitrite level is of growing importance in electrochemistry research, given the strong interest in the protection of drinking water quality, treatment of wastewater, food production, and control of remediation processes. This work describes the fabrication of a simple, cost-effective, pen-type electrochemical sensor based on bimetallic gold and tungsten nanoparticles electrochemically decorated on graphene-chitosan modified pencil graphite electrode (PGE) for the trace detection of nitrite in real samples. The prepared nanocomposite was characterized using XRD, SEM, and EDS. The electrochemical behavior of the sensor was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and impedance electrochemical spectroscopy (EIS). Results revealed that the proposed sensor displayed excellent electrocatalytic activity towards electro-oxidation of nitrite with an irreversible redox reaction. The AuNPs-WNPs@Gr-Chi/PGE sensor exhibited excellent analytical performance with a wide linear range from 10 to 250 μM towards nitrite. The LOD and LOQ were calculated to be 0.12 μM and 0.44 μM, respectively. The designed electrochemical sensor was successfully applied for the detection of nitrite in water, milk, and natural fruit juice samples.     

Discrimination of Beers by Cyclic Voltammetry Using a Single Carbon Screen-printed Electrode

A fast, simple and costless methodology without sample pre-treatment is proposed for the discrimination of beers. It is based on cyclic voltammetry (CV) using commercial carbon screen-printed electrodes (SPCE) and includes a correction of the signals measured with different SPCE units. Data are submitted to partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS−DA) and support vector machine discriminant analysis (SVM−DA), which allow a reasonable classification of the beers. Also, CV data from beers can be used to predict their alcoholic degree by partial least squares (PLS) and artificial neural networks (ANN). In general, non-linear methods provide better results than linear ones.
