Novel electrolytes for electrochemical double layer capacitors based on 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol
2012
Abstract 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoropropan-2-ol (HFIP) was tested for its applicability as solvent in electrolytes for energy storage devices. A comprehensive characterization with respect to solubility, conductivity, as well as chemical and electrochemical stability was carried out with different conducting salts. Furthermore, different HFIP solutions containing standard supporting electrolytes and alkali metal fluorides, respectively, were applied in electrochemical double layer capacitor cells. Their behavior was studied with impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry at low scan rates and compared to the current benchmark electrolytes based on propylene carbonate (PC) and acetonitrile (AN…
Biodegradable lignin nanocontainers
2014
The abundant biomaterial lignin was used to prepare hollow nanocapsules by interfacial polyaddition in inverse miniemulsions. These cross-linked lignin nanocontainers can be loaded with hydrophilic substances which can be released by an enzymatic trigger from natural plant extracts revealing them as potential nanocontainers for agricultural applications.

Mechanism of redox transformation of titanocene dichloride centers immobilized inside a polypyrrole matrix—EQCM and XPS evidences
2005
Abstract We report electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) results for electrodeposition of titanocene derivatized polypyrrole p(Tc3Py) films and redox transformation of polypyrrole matrix and titanocene centers immobilized in the film. Films of p(Tc3Py), Tc3Py = Tc(CH 2 ) 3 NC 4 H 4 (Tc = Cl 2 TiCpCp′, Cp = C 5 H 5 , Cp′ = C 5 H 4 ) were obtained from acetonitrile solutions of monomer on a Pt disc or thin Au layer evaporated on 10 MHz quartz crystals. Polymerization efficiency, derived from the slope of the change of resonant frequency as a function of the deposition charge ranged from 54% to 75%. A gradual loss of redox activity of Tc centers during consecutive redox cycles of …
The Photocatalytic Activity of Novel, Substituted Porphyrin/TiO2-Based Composites
2010
Four novel porphyrins, 5-[3-(3-phenoxy)-propoxy]phenyl porphyrin, 5,15-di-[3-(3-phenoxy)-propoxy] phenyl porphyrin, 5,10,15-tri-[3-(3-phenoxy)-propoxy]phenyl porphyrin, 5,10,15,20-tetra-[3-(3-phenoxy)- propoxy]phenyl porphyrin, and their corresponding Cu(II) porphyrins, were synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. The photodegradation of 4-nitrophenol in aq. suspension was used to determine the photocatalytic activity of polycrystalline TiO2 samples which had been impregnated with the Cu(II) porphyrins, as sensitizers. The photocatalytic activity of the composite depends mainly on the amount of sensitizer on the TiO2 surface rather than the nature of the substituted porphyrins.
Photochemical reactivity of 6α-hydroxy, 7-keto neoclerodane diterpenoids
2006
Abstract The photochemical reactivity, in methanol at λ = 254 nm, of two 6α-hydroxy-7-keto neoclerodane, isoeriocephalin ( 1 ) and teucrolivin B ( 2 ) was evaluated. From the first compound, two new products were obtained: the 6β-hydroxy epimer ( 3 ) and the ɛ-lactone ( 4 ). The second one yielded exclusively the new spiro γ-lactone ( 5 ). The formation of these new products can be explained by the well-known radical mechanism Norrish type I.
The electrochemistry of carbon monoxide reductive cyclotetramerization to squarate anion
1978
Abstract The electrochemical reduction, of carbon monoxide to C4O2−4 squarate anion is investigated. Particular attention is devoted to the influence that solvents, electrolytes, electrodes and carbon monoxide pressure have on the yields. The main feature appears to be that strictly controlled conditions are not necessary for cyclotetramerization. In dmf — Bu4NBr the following yields vs reacted CO and circulated charge were obtained with different cathodes: Pt(49%, 34%); Au(48%, 29%); Al(47%, 38%); stainless steel (36%, 33%); graphite (39%, 31%). A distinct influence of the supporting electrolyte (inorganic and tetraalkylammonium halides) was however observed.
