Enhanced stability of symmetrical polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell single cells based on novel hierarchical microporous-mesoporous carbon supports

Fuel cell electrodes were prepared from Pt nanocluster activated hierarchical microporous-mesoporous carbon powders. The carbon supports were synthesized from molybdenum carbide applying the high-temperature chlorination method. Six different synthesis temperatures within the range from 600 to 1000 °C were used for preparation of carbon supports. Thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, low-temperature nitrogen sorption, and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy methods were used to characterize the structure of the electrode materials and symmetrical membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs). The MEAs prepared were used to conduct the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC)single-cell measurements. The polarization and power density curves for single cells were calculated to evaluate the activity of the catalyst materials synthesized. The electrochemically active surface area (from 2.4 to 11.9 m² g^?1) was obtained in order to estimate the contact surface areas of platinum and Nafion® electrolyte. The values of the electrolyte resistance, polarization resistance, and cell degradation rate were calculated from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy data. The carbon materials synthesized within temperature range from 600 to 850 °C were found to be the most suitable supports for PEMFCs, having higher maximum power density values and better stability (cell potential degradation 240 μV h^?1) than commercial carbon-based (Vulcan XC72; 670 μV h^?1) single cells.

基于蛋白模板金纳米簇及羟基氧化钴纳米片的激活型荧光纳米探针用于免标记和灵敏检测生物硫醇

该文基于牛血清白蛋白模板金纳米簇（BSA@AuNCs）与羟基氧化钴（CoOOH）纳米片构建了一种激活型荧光纳米探针用于生物硫醇的检测。带负电的BSA@AuNCs能通过静电吸附作用组装到带正电的CoOOH纳米片表面,与此同时,BSA@AuNCs的荧光由于内滤效应（IFE）有效地被CoOOH纳米片猝灭,形成BSA@AuNCs－CoOOH纳米探针。当向纳米探针溶液加入生物硫醇（0.05～150 μmol/L）时,生物硫醇与纳米探针中的CoOOH纳米片发生氧化还原反应,CoOOH纳米片被降解生成Co2+,同时释放出BSA@AuNCs,BSA@AuNCs荧光信号恢复。结果表明,该纳米探针可以检测低浓度的生物硫醇,对生物硫醇（半胱氨酸、谷胱甘肽和高半胱氨酸）的检出限为30 nmol/L。相对于其他的氨基酸、金属离子及糖类化合物,该纳米探针对生物硫醇具有较高的选择性并成功应用于人血清样品中生物硫醇的检测。     

Metal‐Chelating N,N′‐Bis(4‐dimethylaminophenyl)acetamidinyl Radical: A New Chromophore for the Near‐Infrared Region

A new non‐innocent ligand redox system, N,N′‐bis(4‐dimethylaminophenyl) substituted acetamidinato/acetamidinyl, has been designed and described by example of structurally and spectroscopically characterized ruthenium complexes. The hitherto unreported ligand is responsible for rather intense and narrow absorptions in the near‐infrared region of the one‐ and two‐electron oxidized forms. The spectroscopic, computational, and first structural characterization of an amidinyl radical complex adds to the list of established N‐based radical ligands.     

Free convection from horizontal screened plates

Experimental investigations of laminar free convection from horizontal isothermal surfaces screened by cylindrical vertical walls are presented. Screen diameters (D) were equal to the diameter of a heating plate while their heights (H) were varied. Results obtained for several heating fluxes and two different liquids indicate that depending on the (H/D) ratio of cylindrical screens, the heat flux transferred from the heating plate to the liquid varies. Three subranges of screening effect have been distinguished: primary inhibition, intensification and secondary inhibition. For primary inhibition, a theoretical model has been proposed and critical ratio of (H/D) has been predicted. The results of flow visualization are also discussed.

Freie Konvektion von horizontalen, seitlich abgeschirmten Platten

Zusammenfassung Es werden experimentelle Untersuchungen der laminaren freien Konvektion an horizontalen, isothermen Flächen mit vertikalen zylindrischen Abschirmflächen beschrieben. Die Schirmdurchmesser (D) waren gleich dem einer Heizplatte, während die Schirmhöhen (H) variiert wurden. Die Resultate, welche für mehrere Wärmeflüsse und mit zwei verschiedenen Flüssigkeiten gewonnen wurden, zeigen, daß — abhängig von VerhältnisH/D der zylindrischen Schirme — der von der Heizplatte an das Fluid übergehende Wärmestrom stark variiert. Drei Bereiche konnten bezüglich des Abschirmeffektes unterschieden werden: erste Hemmung, Verstärkung und zweite Hemmung. Für den Fall der ersten Hemmung wird ein theoretisches Modell vorgeschlagen und das kritischeH/D-Verhältnis vorausberechnet. Abschließend erfolgt die Diskussion von Ergebnissen, welche aus der sichtbaren Darstellung des Strömungsfeldes gewonnen wurde.
