Investigations into the electroreduction of copper(II) ions in ammonia solutions on a disc electrode made of synthetic chalcocite having a deficiency of copper atoms have been presented. It has been concluded that within the range of the diffusion controlled process copper(II) ions are the diffusing substance, at the same time in the course of the reaction two electrons are exchanged. The kinetic parameters for the electroactivating process have been estimated. With a higher concentration of copper in solution an inhibition process has been observed, probably caused by a slow transport rate of the species in the material of the electrode. In the system studied the phenomenon of a partially blocked electrode surface does not occur according to the Landsberg model.  相似文献

The influence of solution pH on H+-Cu2+ exchange equilibrium was studied for the disperse copper- KU-23 (15/100 S) macroporous strongly acid sulfocation exchanger nanocomposite. In dilute solutions of copper(II) sulfate in weakly acid media (pH 3–6), ion exchange limitation is related to the consumption of hydrogen counterions and the formation of copper counterions in a side reaction between copper particles and impurity oxygen. The concentration of hydrogen counterions in the nanocomposite is replenished as pH decreases because of their sorption from solution together with copper ions. Original Russian Text ? E.V.

The effect of preliminary doping of sulfo cation-exchange material KU-23 15/100S with a chemically deposited metal (Ag, Cu) on the rate of copper ion electroreduction is investigated. It is shown that the threshold dependence of the reaction current of copper electroreduction on the amount of doped metal is due to the formation of a single percolation cluster in an ion-exchange grain and, as a result, to the appearance of electron conductivity. It is established that preliminary doping changes the nucleation mechanism from a gradual to an instantaneous one. Results from a local X-ray spectral microanalysis provide the basis for concluding that copper electrodeposition is uniform throughout the volume of an ion-exchange grain. The average size of the copper particles formed is 100 nm.  相似文献

A PVC membrane electrode for copper(II) ions based on a recently synthesized naphthol-derivative Schiff’s base as membrane carrier was prepared. The sensor exhibits a Nernstian response for Cu2+ ions over a wide concentration range (5.0 × 10–6–5.0 × 10–2 mol/L) with a detection limit of 3.1 × 10–6 mol/L (0.2 μg/mL). It has a very short response time of about 5 s and can be used for ?3 months without any divergence in potential. The proposed electrode revealed good selectivities over a wide variety of other cations including alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy metal ions and could be used in a pH range of 4.0–7.0. It was successfully applied to the direct determination and potentiometric titration of copper ion. Received: 23 February 1999 / Revised: 4 May 1999 / Accepted: 5 May 1999  相似文献

Nanocomposite ZnO–Ag thin film containing nano-sized Ag particles have been grown on glass substrate by spin-coating technique using zinc acetate dihydrate as starting precursor in 2-propanol as solvent and monoethanolamine as stabilizer. Silver nanoparticles were added in the ZnO sol using silver nitrate dissolved in ethanol-acetonitrile. Their structural, electrical, crystalline size and optical properties were investigated as a function of preheating, annealing temperature and silver content. The results indicated that the crystalline phase was increased with increase of annealing temperature up to 550 °C at optimum preheating temperature of 275 °C. Thermal gravimetric differential thermal analysis results indicated that the decomposition of pure ZnO and nanocomposite ZnO–Ag precursors occurred at 225 and 234 °C, respectively with formation of ZnO wurtzite crystals. The scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy revealed that the surface structure (the porosity and grain size) of the ZnO–Ag thin film (the film thickness is about 379 nm) was changed compared to pure ZnO thin film. The result of transmission electron microscopy showed that Ag particles were about 5 nm and ZnO particles 58 nm with uniform silver nanoclusters. Optical absorption results indicated that optical absorption of ZnO–Ag thin films decreased with increase of annealing temperature. Nanocomposite ZnO–Ag thin films with [Ag] = 0.068 M and [Ag] = 0.110 M showed an intense absorption band, whose maximum signals appear at 430 nm which is not present in pure ZnO thin films. The result of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the binding energy of Ag 3d5/2 for ZnO–Ag shifts remarkably to the lower binding energy compared to the pure metallic Ag due to the interaction between Ag and ZnO.  相似文献

Copper sols stabilized by a polymer-colloid complex are studied via dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that the polymer-colloid complex including poly(acrylic acid) and the nonionogenic polymeric surfactant poly(ethylene glycol-600-monolaurate) is an effective protector of copper nanoparticles formed via the reduction of Cu2+ ions in an aqueous medium. The sizes of sol particles of the nanocomposite consisting of the polymer-colloid complex and copper nanoparticles depend on the method of preparation of the nanocomposite. The incorporation of the copper nanoparticles being formed (an average diameter of 5 nm) into particles of the polymer-colloid complex leads to an insignificant change in the sizes of the complex particles. The same sizes are typical for particles of the nanocomposite formed during the introduction of surfactant micelles in the copper sol formed in the solution of poly(acrylic acid). The interaction of copper nanoparticles formed in an aqueous medium with surfactant micelles entails their aggregation; as a result, these nanoparticles turn out to be incorporated into large aggregates with equivalent radii of up to 100 nm. When poly(acrylic acid) is incorporated into this sol, the sizes of its particles insignificantly change apparently because of the low rate of structural rearrangements accompanying the formation of the polymer-colloid complex.  相似文献

Core–shell LiFePO4/C composite was synthesized via a sol–gel method and doped by fluorine to improve its electrochemical performance. Structural characterization shows that F ions were successfully introduced into the LiFePO4 matrix. Transmission electron microscopy verifies that F-doped LiFePO4/C composite was composed of nanosized particles with a ~3 nm thick carbon shell coating on the surface. As a cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, the F-doped LiFePO4/C nanocomposite delivers a discharge capacity of 162 mAh/g at 0.1 C rate. Moreover, the material also shows good high-rate capability, with discharge capacities reaching 113 and 78 mAh/g at 10 and 40 C current rates, respectively. When cycled at 20 C, the cell retains 86% of its initial discharge capacity after 400 cycles, demonstrating excellent high-rate cycling performance.  相似文献

The formation of copper nanoparticles in a KU-23 15/100 sulfocation-exchanger was studied. It was demonstrated that the formation of copper as assemblies from nanoparticles with sizes of 3 to 10 nm during chemical synthesis is determined by the nature of the polymer and does not depend on the amount of metal precipitated. The percolation threshold of electron conductivity, which determines the formation of electrochemical activity of nanocomposites, was discovered. It was determined that the electroreduction of molecular oxygen takes place on the surface and in the subsurface zone of a nanocomposite grain, the size of which is determined by the local concentration of metal particles in the ion-exchanger phase.  相似文献

Nanocrystalline single-phase neodymium monoaluminate (NdAlO3) has been prepared from neodymium oxide and aluminium nitrate by modified Pechini’s method. Malic acid has been used for the first time as a new complexing agent in the sol–gel process. It has facilitated, without adding 1,2-ethanediol, a low-temperature synthesis at 1,050 °C compared to the temperature of 1,630 °C needed for the solid-state preparation. The characterisation of the nanoparticles has been carried out by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy in the range 75–4,000 cm−1. The smallest particles have size of 30 nm and are anisometric; agglomerates of particles have been also observed. The material has pyknometric density of 3.956 g/cm3 at T = 293.15 K and specific surface area 5.2 m2/g. The binding energies of O 1s, Al 2p, Nd 3d, and Nd 4d electrons have been found chemically shifted in NdAlO3 compared to the values for the respective elements.  相似文献

A polytyramine-copper oxalate nanocomposite modified copper(PTCOxNMC) electrode prepared by electropolymerization was examined for electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of methanol in alkaline solution using cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. The prepared PTCOxNMC electrode showed a significantly high response for adsorbed methanol oxidation. The effects of various parameters such as potential scan rate and methanol concentration on the electrocatalytic oxidation at the surface of the PTCOxNMC electrode were investigated. Spectrometry techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to determine the surface physical characteristics of the modified electrode and revealed that the polytyramine-copper oxalate nanocomposite particles were highly dispersed on the surface of the copper electrode with a narrow size up to 40 nm. The very high current density obtained for the catalytic oxidation may have resulted from the high electrode surface area caused by modification with the poly-tyramine-copper oxalate nanocomposite.  相似文献

Regular hexagonal Co–Al layered double hydroxides (Co–Al LDH) were synthesized by urea-induced homogeneous precipitation. This material proved to be nanosheets by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements. The electrochemical capacitive behavior of the nanosheets in 1 M KOH solution were evaluated by constant current charge/discharge and cyclic voltammetric measurements, showing a large specific capacitance of 192 F·g−1 even at the high current density of 2 A·g−1. When multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were mixed with the Co–Al LDH, it was found that the specific capacitance and long-life performance of all composite electrodes at high current density are superior to pure LDH electrode. When the added MWNTs content is 10 wt%, the specific capacitance increases to 342.4 F·g−1 and remains at a value of 304 F·g−1 until the 400th cycle at 2 A·g−1, showing that this is a promising electrode material for supercapacitors working at heavy load. According to the electrochemical impedance spectra, MWNTs greatly increase the electronic conductivity between MWNTs and the surface of Co–Al LDH, which consequently facilitates the access of ions in the electrolyte and electrons to the electrode/electrolyte interface.  相似文献

Chronoamperometry of reversible redox reactions with the insertion of cations into solid particles immobilised at an electrode surface is analysed theoretically using a semiinfinite planar diffusion model. A coupled diffusion of electrons and ions within the crystal lattice is separated in two differential equations. The redox reaction is initiated by the polarisation of the three-phase boundary, where the crystal is in contact with both the electrode and the solution. From this contact line the redox reaction advances on the surface and into the crystal body by the diffusion of ions and conductance of electrons. The effects of the geometry and conductivity of the particles on the current are discussed. Received: 28 December 1996 / Accepted: 17 February 1997  相似文献

Nano-sized LSM–YSZ composite was co-synthesized by a glycine–nitrate process (GNP). Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the as-prepared LSM–YSZ particles consist of nano-sized powders with a dominant YSZ phase. Backscatter electron image shows that LSM and YSZ phases were regularly dispersed within the composite. Alternating current impedance measurement revealed that the co-synthesized LSM–YSZ electrode shows lower polarization resistance and activation energy than the physically mixed LSM–YSZ electrode. This electrochemical improvement would be attributed to the increase in three-phase boundary and good dispersion of LSM and YSZ phases within the composite. This paper is dedicated to Professor Su-Il Pyun on the occasion of his 65th birthday.  相似文献

A simple hydrothermal process was used to synthesize the assembled leaf-like copper oxide (CuO) from copper hydroxide and urea in aqueous solution. The field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed that the individual CuO leaf-like nanostructure has a dimension of about 0.5–1.5 μm in length, 50–70 nm in thickness, and 80–110 nm in width, respectively. These CuO nanostructures were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, which showed that the CuO nanostructures prepared from the hydrothermal process have high crystalline properties with a monoclinic structure. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies confirmed that the as-prepared sample is composed of CuO, which is consistent with X-ray diffraction patterns. The CuO nanostructures were used as electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries, demonstrating electrochemical properties of a high initial discharge capacity of approximately 1,028 mAh/g along with good cycle stability.  相似文献

Platinum nanoparticles were successfully deposited within a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)–Nafion matrix by a cyclic voltammetry method. A Pt(IV) complex was reduced to platinum nanoparticles on the surface of MWCNTs. The resulting Pt nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The Pt–MWCNT–Nafion nanocomposite film-modified glassy carbon electrode had a sharp hydrogen desorption peak at about −0.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl (3 M) in a solution of 0.5 M H2SO4, which is directly related to the electrochemical activity of the Pt nanoparticles presented on the surface of MWCNTs. The electrocatalytic properties of the Pt–MWCNT–Nafion nanocomposite-modified glassy carbon electrode for methanol electrooxidation were investigated by cyclic voltammetry in a 2 M CH3OH + 1 M H2SO4 solution. In comparison with the Pt-coated glassy carbon electrode and the Pt–Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode, the Pt–MWCNT–Nafion-modified electrode had excellent electrocatalytic activity toward methanol electrooxidation. The stability of the Pt–MWCNT–Nafion nanocomposite-modified electrode had also been evaluated.  相似文献

In this study, an original approach was explored to decorate copper particles with palladium and well-defined bimetallic copper/palladium powders were elaborated through a two-step ball milling procedure. First, copper powder was milled with previously determined optimal conditions (ball-to-powder mass ratio of 2, milling duration of 6 h under argon) in order to obtain spherical nanocrystalline copper particles with an average diameter of 800 μm. Then, an additional milling in presence of 1 at.% of palladium powder was performed, leading to the formation of Cu–Pd composite materials. Palladium surface concentrations from 3 to 62 at.% were obtained by varying both the ball-to-powder mass ratio (2:1 or 10:1) and the milling duration (from 5 to 30 min). Scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses confirmed that the more intense the milling is, the easier the palladium diffuses into the copper matrix and smaller the palladium concentration on copper particles is. Cyclic voltammetry and electrolysis experiments showed that palladium inclusions on copper improve greatly the electrocatalytic activity for nitrate reduction in alkaline media. The key role of Pd in the Pd–Cu composite electrodes is to accelerate the reduction of nitrite, formed by the electrochemical reduction of nitrate on Cu sites. Also different nitrate electroreduction behaviors were observed at copper and copper–palladium electrodes leading to the preferential formation of nitrite or ammonia depending on the applied potential and the Pd surface concentration.  相似文献

Mechanism of electroreduction of copper(I) cyanide complexes from aqueous electrolytic solutions is studied within a quantum-chemical method of a density functional and a quantum-mechanical theory of charge transfer in polar environment. The electrochemically active form directly participating in an elementary electroreduction act is shown to be the [Cu(CN)2] complex. Modeling calculations of the activation energy for an elementary charge transfer act reveal for the first time that the transfer of heavy particles along an adiabatic potential energy curve is a more probable mechanism of electroreduction of copper(I) cyanocomplexes than an outer-sphere electron transfer.  相似文献

The electroreduction of metol on mechanically renewed metallic electrodes is studied by direct voltammetry with linear potential sweep. Reduction peaks of metol are found in a neutral supporting electrolyte (0.02–0.5 M Na2SO4) on nickel, silver, and mercury electrodes before the potential of hydrogen liberation from the supporting electrolyte. The shape and parameters of the cathodic peak depend on an electrode material, and also on the composition and pH of the supporting solution. A probable mechanism of the electroreduction of metol is proposed. The regeneration of nickel and silver electrodes by in situ mechanical cutting of a 0.5-μm surface layer provides good reproducibility of the value of peak current; it is proportional to the concentration of metol in the range 2 × 10−3–1.8 × 10−2 M.  相似文献

Fluorine tin oxide (FTO) electrode modified by copper oxide microfibers (CuO-MFs) composed of numerous interconnected CuO nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) for nonenzymatic glucose sensor was prepared by electrospinning precursor containing high percentage content of copper nitrate with subsequent calcination. The results of scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed the size of CuO particles composing CuO-MFs depended on the percentage content of copper nitrate in precursor solution. With increasing the percentage content of copper nitrate, the interconnected CuO-NPs would gradually replace the large-size CuO particles to accumulate the CuO-MFs, which have the potential to provide larger surface area and more reaction sites for electrocatalytic activity toward glucose. As a glucose sensor, the CuO-MFs modified FTO electrode prepared by 40 wt.% of copper nitrate exhibited a high sensitivity of 2321 μA mM−1 cm−2 with a low detection limit of 2.2 nM (signal/noise ratio (S/N) = 3). Additionally, the application of the CuO-MFs modified FTO electrode as a glucose sensor for biological samples was demonstrated with satisfactory results.  相似文献

CdO–ZnO nanocomposite was fabricated by a sol–gel pyrrolysis method based on the poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) polymeric network. The prepared nanocomposite was carefully characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-Ray dispersive energy analysis, ICP-atomic emission spectroscopy, X-Ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and UV–visible spectroscopy. The structure, composition, and morphology of this composite depend on a number of aspects: the amounts of cadmium salt, zinc salt, and PVA in the initial solution, the solvent composition, and the pyrrolysis temperature. The obtained results showed that the nanocomposite had excellent linear nanoclusters created from nanograins. Each nanograin was made of a CdO core, completely covered by ZnO layers. Total diameter of each nanograin was 70–90 nm.  相似文献
