Electrochemical Impedance Spectra of Particulate Matter and Smoke
2011
Particularly aerosol particles of fine dimensions are recognized to have a strong impact on the climate change, on the atmospheric energy budget, on the environment and on human health. In this study coarse aerosol particles with different black carbon mass concentrations were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Present work describes preparation of particulate matter samples for impedance measurements, the principles of the structure of electrochemical cell and the relationship between parameters obtained from impedance spectra and black carbon mass concentration. Using complex electrode it is possible to obtain qualitative impedance spectra of particulate matter which …
Hydrothermally Synthesized Strontium Peroxyapatite
2015
The current research focuses on peroxide ion incorporation in the structure of strontium hydroxyapatite (SrHAp) by exposure to H2O2 ina closed hydrothermal vessel under mild conditions at 130 to 170 °C. Peroxide enriched strontium apatite (SrPerAp) was characterized for structure by X-Ray diffraction, for peroxide content- by permanganometric titration and then viewed by SEM. This study continued from previous work that used 30%H2O2 and showed a higher included peroxide content after processing with 50% H2O2 at 130 °C 70% of the theoretical peroxide content in apatitic channels of strontium apatite. This is the highest peroxide content incorporated to date and employs a lower temperature th…
