Electrochemical behaviour and electrical percolation in graphite-epoxy electrodes

1994

The electrochemical properties of mouldable graphite-epoxy composite electrodes have been studied as a function of graphite content. The shape of ferri-ferrocyanide voltammograms relates to the ratio of graphite and an adsorption process. The dielectric constant from spectroelectrochemical impedance measurement of this composite electrode is maximum when the proportion of graphite is ca. 60 wt%. An electrochemical equivalent circuit is proposed. The graphite-epoxy composite acts as a multi-microelectrode near this proportion.

An overview of nanoparticles role in the improvement of barrier properties of bioplastics for food packaging applications

2017

Abstract Plastics are the most demanding materials for the food packaging industry due to economical and practical reasons such as their low cost, lightness, easy to handle in integrated production lines, and their higher resistance than other materials. Besides containment and information, the packaging should protect foodstuffs from not only contamination but also the loss of food quality. Despite the many advantages, their inherent permeability is perhaps the foremost drawback that could lead to the loss of some food components and, also, to the transference of gases or moisture from the surrounding to the food. Thus, the barrier properties and the wettability are of fundamental importan…

Apparent activation energies and apparent frequency factor in polarographic waves of paludrine-Zn(II)

1993

Abstract Arrhenius and Vlcek plots of ac 1 and dp polarograms of paludrine-Zn complexes are tested in order to understand the apparent activation energies and pre-exponential factor, and their dependence on the potential. These empirical treatments are useful for obtaining information about the energetic contributions of the elemental processes associated with the Zn(II) and paludrine ligands in the overall mechanism of reduction of the complex 2:1 on the mercury interface.

Prussian blue films deposited on graphite+epoxy composite electrodes: electrochemical detection of the second percolation threshold

2000

Abstract The electrochemical behavior of Prussian blue films galvanostatically electrodeposited on graphite+epoxy-resin composite electrodes was studied. The composite electrodes were prepared with different graphite proportions and their effect on electrochemical reduction of the Prussian blue was analyzed by means of the uncompensated resistance approximation and the electrical percolation theory. The results suggest that the electrode with 60% graphite reaches the second percolation threshold and its internal structure changes from a compact to a porous one. Mechanical tensile tests were performed in order to confirm the critical behavior of this material at the percolation thresholds. T…
