A novel magnetic catalyst based on Fe3O4 nanoparticles-reduced graphene oxide&carbon nanotubes ((Fe3O4--(rGO&CNT)) was prepared and characterized by hydrothermal method. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles with an average size of 25 to 40 nm were placed on carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxide sheets, while carbon nanotubes inserted between the reduced graphene oxide sheets effectively prevented their aggregation. The (Fe3O4-(rGO&CNT) composite has a large surface area and good electrocatalytic properties, suiting for the detection and determination of imatinib (IM) anticancer drug by voltammetry method. Under optimized conditions, good linearity was achieved in the concentration range of 0.1 to 40 μmol L-1 and the limit of detection and sensitivity were 57 nmol L-1 and 3.365 μA L μmol-1, respectively. Furthermore, the fabricated sensor demonstrated acceptable reproducible behaviour and accuracy and a high level of stability during all electrochemical tests. In addition, the proposed method was applied for the detection of IM in biological samples and the recoveries were 94.0 to 98.5 %, with relative standard deviations of 2.1 to 4.4 %.","PeriodicalId":14819,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering","volume":"272 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139170268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to explain the effect of CNT/TiO2/chlorophyll photocatalyst coated on the cellulose nanopaper (CNP) substrate on the PBEC performance and to compare the results with those obtained for the commercial indium tin oxide (ITO) glass and flexible ITO as substrates. The results showed high sheet resistance of CNP, which is 61182 Ω sq-1, which is reduced by 80 % in the presence of CNT/TiO2/Chl biocatalyst. The highest output voltage of 0.95 to 1 V was produced by coating CNT/TiO2/Chl on the flexible ITO. The maximum current density (Jmax) of 3726 mA m-2 and the highest maximum power density value of around 574 mW m-2 were obtained for illuminated CNT/TiO2/Chl on the rigid ITO anode. In dark conditions, the highest power density was observed for CNP as the supporting substrate. The photo-bioelectrochemical cell adopting CNT/TiO2/Chl and CNP as the supporting substrate material has great potential for a variety of applications, such as wearable electronics, environmental monitoring, remote or off-grid energy supply, and renewable energy systems, thereby contributing to the advancement of sustainable energy technologies.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":14819,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering","volume":"6 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138980910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The corrosion behaviour of composite coating has been compared with that of conventional chromium oxide coating. All the coatings were analysed by scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. It was found that the addition of 5 wt.% YSZ in the Cr2O3 matrix results in the reduction of the porosity of the coating and an increase in hardness. During corrosion investigations, it was found that YSZ-reinforced Cr2O3 nanocomposite coating on T22 provides better corrosion resistance than conventional Cr2O3 coating in the molten salt environment at 900 °C. The inclusion of YSZ has reduced porosity by filling in the gaps in the chromium oxide coating, causing particle interlocking, and preventing the entry of corroding species.","PeriodicalId":14819,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering","volume":"362 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138625643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
