Fabrication and Characterization of Chitosan-Heteropolyacid complex as membranes for low temperature H2-O2 fuel cell

2015

In this work we describe an easy procedure to fabricate homogeneous CS-HPA polyelectrolyte films using phosphotungstic acid (PTA) as cross-linking agent. The re action between CS chains and PTA is controlled in order to allow fabricating PEC thin films, that can be easily peeled off from the support, cut to any size and shape, whose thickness can be controlled by setting reticulation and time and/or chitosan concentration

Heteropolyacids - Chitosan Membranes for H2/O2 Low Temperature Fuel Cells

2016

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have received much attention in recent years because of their high power density, efficiency and zero-environmental pollution. As one of the key components in fuel cells, the proton exchange membrane is expected to have high proton conductivity and good electrochemical stability. In the attempt to promote PEMCFs commercialization, high cost of fuel cell systems and short lifecycle are the two main issues that need to be addressed, thus large research effort has been devoted in developing new polymer electrolytes that can replace the usually employed proton conductors, e.g. Nafion®, with other membranes of comparable performances but lower cost. A…

Titanium oxide nanotubes (NTs) have attracted much attention during last decade due to their special characteristics such as one-dimensional highly ordered geometry with large surface area and good chemical and optical stability.

Nanowire Ordered Arrays for Electrochemical Sensing of H2O2

2016

Today, electrochemical sensors are considered very interesting in comparison to conventional techniques because they are very adaptable, cheap, have very low limit of detection and low detection time. The most used electrochemical technique is the amperometry . In amperometric sensors, a fixed potential is applied to the electrochemical cell, and a corresponding current, due to a reduction or oxidation reaction, is then obtained. This current it can be correlated with the bulk concentration of the detecting species (the solute) such as H2O2. Hydrogen peroxide is an essential mediator in food, pharmaceutical, clinical, industrial, and environmental analyses therefore, it is of great importan…

Pd-NWs ordered arrays for electrochemical sensing of H2O2

2016

In this work, we present the performance of nanostructured array of Pd (Pd-NWs) for electrochemical sensors of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in several fields, because to its oxidizing and reducing properties, like for treatment of waste water, paper and contaminated soils, as reagent in many chemical industries or like rocket propellant [1]. Furthermore, its presence or absence may be connected with many neurological deseases or/and with cancer [2].Today the most used methods for detection of that chemical are IR spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, chemioluminescence and redox titration. However these methods are often uneconomical, have very high detection …
