In this work, we have studied superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic transitions on the vertically aligned multiwalled carbon nanotube (VACNT) surfaces. As-grown, the VACNT surfaces were superhydrophobic. Pure oxygen plasma etching modified the VACNT surfaces to generate superhydrophilic behavior. Irradiating the superhydrophilic VACNT surfaces with a CO2 laser (up to 50?kW?cm?2) restored the superhydrophobicity to a level that depended on the laser intensity. Contact angle and surface energy measurements by the sessile drop method were used to examine the VACNT surface wetting. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed heavy grafting of the oxygen groups onto the VACNT surfaces after oxygen plasma etching and their gradual removal, which also depended on the CO2 laser intensity. These results show the great influence of polar groups on the wetting behavior, with a strong correlation between the polar part of the surface energy and the oxygen content on the VACNT surfaces. In addition, the CO2 laser treatment created an interesting cage-like structure that may be responsible for the permanent superhydrophobic behavior observed on these samples. 相似文献

In the present work, a novel electrode composed of TiO2, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and Pt nanoparticles on carbon fiber (CF), denoted as Pt/RGO/TiO2/CF, has been fabricated successfully and employed as a photo-electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation in alkaline media. The spherical TiO2 nanoparticles are loaded on CF surface by an in situ method and wrapped by the gauze-like RGO. Meanwhile, the RGO effectively extends the absorption edge to visible light region based on the UV–vis diffuse reflectance absorption spectra (DRS) and promotes the good dispersion of Pt nanoparticles electro-deposited on the surface of RGO-wrapped TiO2. The as-prepared Pt/RGO/TiO2/CF electrode shows enhanced electrocatalytic activity and stability compared with Pt/TiO2/CF and Pt/CF electrodes both with and without light irradiation. The RGO plays an important role for the enhancement of electrocatalytic and photo-electrocatalytic performance. Moreover, Pt/RGO/TiO2/CF presents a higher photo-electrocatalytic activity for methanol oxidation with light irradiation than that without light irradiation due to the synergistic effect among them. 相似文献

Abstract
Films of vertically aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were selectively synthesized on silicon dioxide substrate by catalytic chemical vapor deposition using either benzene or acetonitrile as carbon source and ferrocene (1% w/w) as catalyst. The MWCNT were extensively characterized by using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and Raman spectroscopy. In order to examine the prospective application of the fabricated MWCNT films for the detection of electro-active compounds in organic solvent media, electrochemical studies of the oxidation of cobaltocene (CoCp2) to cobaltocenium cation (CoCp2+) (Cp = cyclopentadienyl anion) in acetonitrile were performed on these films. For this purpose, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were employed. The electrochemical parameters for the CoCp2+/0 couple in acetonitrile were derived and compared with those obtained using a conventional glassy carbon electrode. The results demonstrate that the synthesized MWCNT films are promising electrode materials for the electrochemical detection of electro-active species in organic solvents. The MWCNT film formed upon decay of benzene has higher capacitance, less Warburg impedance, and less charge transfer resistance, and consequently it provides faster electron transfer kinetics. 相似文献4.
The electrochemical oxidation of sulfite catalyzed by acetylferrocene (AFc) at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in 0.2 M NaClO4 aqueous solution has been studied by cyclic voltammetry. Although sulfite itself showed a sluggish electrochemical response at the GCE, the response could be enhanced greatly by using AFc as a mediator, which enables a sensitive determination of the substrate (sulfite). The reaction rate constant for catalytic oxidation was evaluated as (7.02 ± 0.05) × 104 M ?1 s?1 by chronoamperometry. Experimental conditions that maximize the current efficiency of the electrocatalytic oxidation, such as the pH and both the catalyst (AFc) and substrate (sulfite) concentrations, were also investigated. The electrochemical kinetics of electrocatalytic oxidation of sulfite by AFc has been studied by cyclic voltammetry. In the presence of 5 × 10?4 M AFc, the oxidation current is proportional to the sulfite concentration and the calibration plot was linear over the concentration range 2 × 10?4–2.4 × 10?3 M . This result can be applied in the determination of real samples. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Formic acid oxidation at platinum electrochemically deposited on polished (GC/Pt) and oxidized glassy carbon (GCox/Pt) was examined with the objective of studying the effect of electrochemical treatment of the support on deposition of platinum and on the activity of Pt catalyst. The electrodes were characterised by STM and XPS techniques. The oxidative treatment of the support leads to deposition of smaller Pt particles in comparison with the one on the polished substrate. The XPS spectra indicated the increased fraction of functional (acidic) groups on the treated support as well as the higher fraction of oxygen containing species on Pt catalyst deposited on oxidised referring to Pt deposited on polished substrate.The activity of GCox/Pt electrode is increased by the factor of 2–4 for formic acid oxidation compared to the activity of GC/Pt electrode. This result is explained by the oxidative removal of COad species leading to enhanced amount of Pt free sites available for direct formic acid oxidation to CO2. 相似文献

Effect of electrochemical oxidation of glassy carbon on deposition of platinum particles and electrocatalytic activity of platinum supported on oxidized glassy carbon (Pt/GCOX) were studied for methanol oxidation in H2SO4 solution. Platinum was potentiostatically deposited from H2SO4 + H2PtCl6 solution. Glassy carbon was anodically polarised in 0.5 M H2SO4 at 2.25 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE) during 35 s. Electrochemical treatment of GC support, affecting not significantly the real Pt surface area, leads to a better distribution of platinum on the substrate and has remarkable effect on the activity. The activity of the Pt/GCOX electrode for methanol oxidation is larger than polycrystalline Pt and for more than one order of magnitude larger than Pt/GC electrode. This increase in activity indicates the pronounced role of organic residues of GC support on the properties of Pt particles deposited on glassy carbon. 相似文献

The LiFePO4/carbon fiber (LFP/CF) cathodes were prepared by using activated carbon fiber cloth as current collector in place of conventional Al foil. The electrochemical properties of LFP/CF electrodes were analyzed by the cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge/discharge tests. The results indicate that the activated carbon fiber cloth with high specific surface area and high porosity makes the LFP/CF electrode that possesses higher mass loading of 18–21 mg cm–2 and stronger redox reaction ability compared with Al foil-based electrode. The LFP/CF electrode shows excellent rate performance and cycle stability. At 0.1C, the discharge capacity is up to 190.1 mAh g–1 that exceeds the theoretical capacity due to the combination effect of battery and capacitor. Furthermore, the LFP/CF electrode shows an initial capacity of 150.4 mAh g–1 at 1C with a capacity retention of 74.7% after 425 cycles, which is higher than 62.4% for LFP/Al foil electrode, and an initial discharge capacity of 130 mAh g–1 at 5C with a capacity retention of 61.5% after 370 cycles. But this composite electrode is not suitable for charging/discharging at higher rate as 10C due to too much mass loading. 相似文献

Vertically aligned multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) on silica substrate were selectively produced by the procedure of
chemical vapor deposition (CVD). For the synthesis of the MWCNT films, either acetonitrile (ACN) or benzene (BZ) was used
as carbon sources while ferrocene (FeCp2) was adopted as catalyst. The packing organization of the aligned carbon nanotubes on the silica substrate, and thus the
degree of disorder of the produced MWCNT films, was found to be different. Namely, the MWCNT2 film, produced upon decay of BZ, seems to be more disordered compared to MWCNT1, produced upon decomposition of ACN. In order to examine their prospective application as electrodes for the detection of
electroactive compounds in organic solvent media, the techniques of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (EIS) were employed. FeCp2 was selected as the suitable standard electroactive substance for probing the fabricated MWCNT electrodes, in view of the
fact that FeCp2 undergoes a fast one-electron oxidation process forming the ferrocenium cation (FeCp2+), which is rather stable during the time scale of the experiments. All electrochemical experiments were performed in ACN
as solvent medium including n-tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate as supporting electrolyte at room temperature. The extracted CV and EIS results were
compared with those obtained using glassy carbon electrode. The findings demonstrate the successful detection of FeCp2 in ACN at both MWCNT films. However, among the films investigated, the electrode produced upon decay of BZ seems to be better
capacitor, most probably due to its higher surface area as well as to its small film thickness. Evidently, the high degree
of disorder, which has been observed for MWCNT2, plays an important role for the increase of its effective surface area and thus, its capacitance. It is, however, very interesting
that the more disorder MWCNT2 film provides, the greater charge transfer resistance. 相似文献

The feasibility of activated carbon fibers (ACFs) used as a new type of particle electrodes in 3-dimensional (3D) electrode for the electrochemical degradation of phenol wastewater was investigated for the first time. The surface morphology, textual properties and electrochemical behaviors of ACF were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), N2-BET sorption and cyclic voltammograms (CVs), respectively. Compared with the commercialized granular activated carbon (GAC), ACF particle electrodes exhibited higher electrochemical oxidation performance on the mineralization of target pollutant. The identification of intermediates indicated most of oxidation products were adsorbed onto the ACFs. The detection of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals in the reaction system suggested that the reaction mechanism was direct anodic oxidation of pollutant on ACFs if the cathode did not contact the ACFs. The operative parameters including initial concentration of substrate, applied current density and the initial aqueous pH have been scientifically studied in search of the optimum condition. Based upon the obtained results, the ACFs longevity was tested in solution at pH 2.0, revealing relatively high electrooxidation capacity and long catalyst lifetime of ACFs in acid solution. 相似文献

In this study, stable and homogenous thin films of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were obtained on conducting surface
using ciprofloxacin (CF, fluoroquinolone antibiotic) as an effective-dispersing agent. Further, MWCNTs/CF film modified electrodes
(glassy carbon and indium tin oxide-coated glass electrode) are used successfully to study the direct electrochemistry of
proteins. Here, cytochrome C (Cyt-C) was used as a model protein for investigation. A MWCNTs/CF film modified electrode was
used as a biocompatible material for immobilization of Cyt-C from a neutral buffer solution (pH 7.2) using cyclic voltammetry
(CV). Interestingly, Cyt-C retained its native state on the MWCNTs/CF film. The Cyt-C adsorbed MWCNTs/CF film was characterized
by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV–visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis) and CV. SEM images showed the evidence for the
adsorption of Cyt-C on the MWCNTs/CF film, and UV–vis spectrum confirmed that Cyt-C was in its native state on MWCNTs/CF film.
Using CV, it was found that the electrochemical signal of Cyt-C was highly stable in the neutral buffer solution and its redox
peak potential was pH dependent. The formal potential (−0.27 V) and electron transfer rate constant (13 ± 1 s−1) were calculated for Cyt-C on MWCNTs/CF film modified electrode. A potential application of the Cyt-C/MWCNTs/CF electrode
as a biosensor to monitor H2O2 has been investigated. The steady-state current response increases linearly with H2O2 concentration from 2 × 10−6 to 7.8 × 10−5 M. The detection limit for determination of H2O2 has been found to be 1.0 × 10−6 M (S/N = 3). Thus, Cyt-C/MWCNTs/CF film modified electrode can be used as a biosensing material for sensor applications. 相似文献

The self-sustaining hybrid electrode was prepared via chemical polymerization of aniline in acid medium containing dispersed carbon nanotubes (CNT), using carbon fiber (CF) as conducting substrate. The ternary composites called PAni/CNT/CF were characterized in order to evaluate their morphologies, structures, and thermal properties. The influence of the polyaniline (PAni) layer in the ternary composite properties was studied considering different deposition times on CF samples (30, 60, and 90 min). The ternary composite morphologies were observed by scanning electron microscopy while thermal structural analyses were obtained using thermogravimetric measurements. The structural features were analyzed by Raman scattering spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The possible interactions between PAni and CNT were discussed on the basis of Raman and FTIR spectra. These spectroscopic analyses also confirmed that the PAni present in the composite is in the emeraldine (ES) salt form. Furthermore, the ternary composites were also evaluated by electrochemical measurements such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge–discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The results showed good charge storage capacity for ternary composites, in particular, for PAni/CNT/CF obtained with 90 min of deposition time, which exhibited specific capacitance of around 500 F g?1. Therefore, this electrode was selected to build a prototype of type I supercapacitor. This device presented specific capacitance of around 143 F g?1 after 3200 charge/discharge cycles. 相似文献

We report on the fabrication of an enzyme–free electrochemical sensor for glucose based on a printed film consisting of multi–walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The MWCNT–based film can be produced by means of a flexographic printing process on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate. The electrochemical response of the MWCNT–based film (referred to as MWCNT–PC) towards the oxidation of glucose at pH 7 was studied by means of cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The MWCNT–PC film exhibits substantial electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of glucose at an anodic potential of 0.30?V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The findings reveal that the MWCNT–PC film enables non–enzymatic sensing of glucose with a detection limit as low as 2.16?μM and a sensitivity of 1045?μA?mM?1?cm?2. Figure

In this study the application of home-made unmodified (GC) and bulk modified boron doped glassy carbon (GCB) electrodes for the voltammetric determination of the linuron was investigated. The electrodes were synthesized with a moderate temperature treatment (1000°C). Obtained results were compared with the electrochemical determination of the linuron using a commercial glassy carbon electrode (GC-Metrohm). The peak potential (E p ) of linuron oxidation in 0.1 mol dm−3 H2SO4 as electrolyte was similar for all applied electrodes: 1.31, 1.34 and 1.28 V for GCB, GC and GC-Metrohm electrodes, respectively. Potential of linuron oxidation and current density depend on the pH of supporting electrolyte. Applying GCB and GC-Metrohm electrodes the most intensive electrochemical response for linuron was obtained in strongly acidic solution (0.1 mol dm−3 H2SO4). Applying the boron doped glassy carbon electrode the broadest linear range (0.005–0.1 μmol cm−3) for the linuron determination was obtained. The results of voltammetric determination of the linuron in spiked water samples showed good correlation between added and found amounts of linuron and also are in good agreement with the results obtained by HPLC-UV method. This appears to be the first application of a boron doped glassy carbon electrode for voltammetric determination of the environmental important compounds. 相似文献

Glass-like carbon (GC) tiles were electrochemically oxidized in 1 mol·dm?3 H2SO4 solution at a potential of 2.3 V/SCE. The surfaces of the oxidized samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The solid oxidation products were studied by derivatographic (TG, DTG and DTA) and elemental analyses. The solid products of electrochemical oxidation of GC, with the general formula C8O4.2H2.3 were thermolabile and revealed properties similar to those of graphite oxide. They are hydrophylic and their thermal decomposition proceeds in three steps: (i) evaporation of-chemisorbed water (320–400 K), (ii) exothermic decomposition of graphite oxide (370–430 K), and (iii) gradual decomposition of the oxidation products (>430 K). 相似文献

Symmetric supercapacitor devices were fabricated from MoS2 incorporated carbon allotropes such as activated carbon (AC)/MoS2, graphene/MoS2 and MWCNT/MoS2. The device performance was evaluated using cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrochemical properties of the devices fabricated from carbon allotropes (activated carbon, graphene, MWCNT) were remarkably enhanced to above 50% by the incorporation MoS2 phases. Out of the three fabricated devices, electrochemical performance of AC/MoS2 as found to be superior. The specific capacitance and energy density of this device is 216 F/g and 6.2 Wh/Kg respectively with excellent higher rate capability and longer cyclic durability. The devices fabricated from graphene/MoS2 and MWCNT/MoS2 has exhibited a specific capacitance value of 202 F/g and 161 F/g with an energy density value of 5.68 Wh/Kg and 3.95 Wh/Kg respectively. 相似文献

In this paper, a novel biosensor was prepared by immobilizing glucose oxidase (GOx) on carbon nanotube-gold-titania nanocomposites (CNT/Au/TiO2) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). SEM was initially used to investigate the surface morphology of CNT/Au/TiO2 nanocomposites modified GCE, indicating the formation of the nano-porous structure which could readily facilitate the attachment of GOx on the electrode surface. Cyclic voltammogram (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectrum (EIS) were further utilized to explore relevant electrochemical activity on CNT]Au/TiO2 nanocomposites modified GCE. The observations demonstrated that the immobilized GOx could efficiently execute its bioelectrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of glucose. The biosensor exhibited a wider linearity range from 0.1 mmol L-1 to 8 mmol L^-1 glucose with a detection limit of 0.077 mmol L^- 1. 相似文献

A hydrogen peroxide initiated sol-gel process involving molybdenum transformation in the presence of dopamine (Dopa) hydrochloride excess produced the metastable precipitate composed of polydopamine (PDopa) spheres coated with Dopa preintercalated molybdenum oxide, (Dopa)xMoOy@PDopa. The hydrothermal treatment (HT) of the (Dopa)xMoOy@PDopa precursor resulted in the simultaneous carbonization of Dopa and molybdenum reduction generating MoO2 nanoplatelets distributed and confined on the surface of the Dopa-derived carbon matrix (HT-MoO2/C). The consecutive annealing (An) of the HT-MoO2/C sample at 600 °C under Ar atmosphere led to the formation of MoO2 with increased Mo oxidation state and improved structural stability (AnHT-MoO2/C). Annealing had also further facilitated interaction between the molybdenum-derived and Dopa-derived components resulting in the modification of the carbon matrix confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Morphology of both materials is best described as Dopa-derived carbon spheres decorated with MoO2 nanoplatelets. These integrated metal oxide and carbon structures were tested as electrodes for lithium-ion batteries in the potential window that corresponds to the intercalation mechanism of charge storage. The AnHT-MoO2/C electrode showed enhanced electrochemical activity, with an initial specific discharge capacity of 260 mAh/g and capacity retention of 67% after 50 cycles, compared to the HT-MoO2/C electrode which exhibited an initial specific discharge capacity of 235 mAh g?1 and capacity retention of 47% after 50 cycles. The rate capability experiments revealed that the capacity of 93 mAh/g and 120 mAh/g was delivered by the HT-MoO2/C and AnHT-MoO2/C electrodes, respectively, when the current density was increased to 100 mA/g. The improved specific capacity, electrochemical stability, and rate capability achieved after annealing were attributed to higher crystallinity of MoO2, increased oxidation state of Mo, and formation of the tighter MoO2/carbon contact accompanied by the annealing assisted interaction between MoO2 and Dopa-derived carbon. 相似文献

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can directly convert renewable biogas into electricity with high efficiency at high temperature, however the long-term stability of SOFCs is significantly affected by the carbon deposition on the anode during cell operation. Herein, we report a novel carbon removal approach by high temperature infrared light driven photocatalytic oxidation. Upon the comparison of electrochemical performance of Ni-YSZ anode and TiO2 modified Ni-YSZ anode in the state-of-the-art single cell (Ni-YSZ/YSZ/LSCM), the modified anodes exhibit markedly improved peak powder density with simulated biogas fuel (70% CH4+ 30% CO2) at 850 °C with less coking after 40 h operation. The high activity and carbon deposition resistance of the modified anode is possibly attributed to the in situ generated hydroxyl radical from the reduced TiOx powder under high temperature infrared light excitation, which is supported by detailed analysis of microstructural information of anodes and the powder-based thermo-photocatalytic experiments. 相似文献

The electrochemical deposition of carbon films on a nickel substrate was carried out through anodic oxidation of calcium acetylide dissolved in a LiCl–KCl–CaCl2 melt at 823 K. Continuous and tenacious carbon films were prepared by a two-stage anodically potentiostatic deposition at a fast rate, and characterized by SEM, Raman spectroscopy, XRD and XPS. The results show the carbon films composed of micron-sized particles with graphitized and amorphous phases containing a mixture of sp3 and sp2 carbon. The cyclic voltammetry behavior of acetylide anion on graphite and nickel electrodes indicated that C22 − ions are oxidized more favorably on the nickel substrate due to the anodic depolarization from nickel carburization. 相似文献
