Given this, they are promising materials for biosensors. However, in studies investigating SWCNT-based electrochemical biosensors, raw soot has been mostly used. Soot typically contains a mixture of different chiralities, metallic compounds, and various impurities from the synthesis process. As a result, this mixture significantly limits the reproducibility and precision of SWCNT-based sensors. To ensure consistent sensor performance, we employed an aqueous two-phase extraction technique to purify and sort single-chirality SWCNTs—specifically, semiconducting (6,5) SWCNTs and metallic (6,6) SWCNTs. In addition, we used multiple fabrication methods to ensure that only pure-chirality SWCNTs were deposited onto the electrodes. Our findings emphasise the importance of using surfactant-free systems when investigating the influence of chirality on the electrochemical behaviour of SWCNTs. By using monochiral SWCNTs, we achieved precise control over their concentration and density, allowing us to assess their electrochemical properties accurately. Our results reveal that the adsorption-controlled process of the inner sphere redox probe (ISR) occurs on (6,5) SWCNTs, while a diffusion-controlled process is observed on (6,6) SWCNTs. These findings provide valuable insights that will enhance the performance of SWCNTs-based electrochemical biosensors.","PeriodicalId":99,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics","volume":"60 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143385604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its proton transport (PT) mechanism remains less understood compared to that of water, which presents a significant challenge for advancing technologies like phosphoric acid fuel cells. In this study, we utilize machine learning (ML) potentials and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the proton diffusion mechanisms in liquid phosphoric acid systems. The neural network potentials (NNPs) we developed demonstrate quantum chemical accuracy and stability across a range of temperatures. Our simulations reveal continuous proton hopping between phosphoric acid anions. Moreover, the radial distribution functions (RDFs) and diffusion coefficients obtained from ring polymer MD (RPMD)—a variant of path-integral MD (PIMD)—exhibit improved alignment with experimental values compared to classical MD results, as RPMD inherently accounts for nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) on proton behavior. Additionally, we employed neural networks (NN) combined with the charge equilibration method to predict the charge distribution in liquid phosphoric acid, examining the PT mechanism through vibrational spectra analysis. These findings provide deeper insights into the high proton conductivity of liquid phosphoric acid.","PeriodicalId":99,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143385665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the resulting current (i) equations, a convolution approach was proposed to extract the rate constant of the chemical reaction through non-linear fitting. These equations were validated using digital simulations, and the semi-derivative approach successfully recovered the simulated parameters. The proposed kinetic method was then applied experimentally to the chemical oxidation of iodide by hydrogen peroxide in acidic medium, followed by the electrochemical reduction of triiodide. The rate constants measured with this kinetic method were consistent with existing literature across various temperatures, and an Arrhenius plot led to a reasonable value for an activation energy of the process.","PeriodicalId":99,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143385667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The copolymers (P(ANI-co-FcA)) were synthesized by copolymerization of aniline and 1,1’-bis[(4-aminophenyl)amino]carbon]ferrocene (FcA). The resistivity and temperature-dependent resistivity are performed to unveil the charge carrier transport mechanism, aligning with the Efros-Shklovskii variable-range hopping (ES-VRH) model. Additionally, the MR and dielectric properties are tuned by alternating the FcA content in the main chain of copolymers. MR analysis reveals a positive effect, which is intensified with an increased FcA content. Notably, the MR effect of P(ANI-co-FcA)-3 attains 1.51% under a magnetic field of 3 T. The real permittivity of copolymers is changed from negative to positive values upon the incorporation of FcA.

The computational workflow performs conformational searches for metal complexes at both low and high levels of theories in conjunction with a continuum solvation model (CSM). The low-level theory is mainly used for the initial conformational searches, which are complemented with high-level density functional theory conformational searches in the CSM framework to determine the coordination chemistry relevant for stability constant calculations. In this regard, the lowest energy conformations are found to obtain the reaction free energies for the addition of one NO<small><sub>3</sub></small><small><sup>-</sup></small> to [M(H<small><sub>2</sub></small>O)<small><sub>x</sub></small>]<small><sup>n+</sup></small> complexes, where M represents Fe(II), Fe(III), Sr(II), Ce(III), Ce(IV), and U(VI), respectively.

Interestingly, the lowest-energy conformations of Fe(II) metal-nitrate complexes exhibit monodentate or bidentate coordination with a coordination number of 6 while the bidentate seven-coordinated Fe(II) metal-nitrate complexes are approximately 2 kcal/mol higher in energy. Notably, for Fe(III) metal-nitrate complexes, the bidentate seven-coordinated configuration is more stable than the six-coordinated Fe(II) complexes (monodentate or bidentate) by a few thermal energy units.

Obviously, the inhibition efficacy rises with the rise in 2PzH concentration to get to 95.7% and 2PzMe to get to 95.9% at 10-3M. The polarization measurement (PDP) also argued that these compounds are the mixed inhibitors. EIS measurements have divulged that the charge transfer resistance increased with the increase in inhibitor concentration. The bipyrazolic compounds were adsorbed on the steel surface as stated by the Langmuir adsorption model which was presented by chemisorption. These results were further strengthened by elemental characterization of the metal/solution contact employing XPS, for the two molecules tested.

Here, we evaluate the resulting behavior of dimer to hexamer linear arrays based on linking spherical aromatic para-[C2B10H10] clusters (1) as relevant motifs toward understanding the characteristics of extended linear materials. Our results exhibit the persistence of spherical aromatic properties from the parent building block as isolated spherical aromatic states within the overall structure. Under different orientations of the applied field, the multiple enabled shielding cones at each linked cluster can evolve from a perfectly parallel disposition to an enhanced overlap under rotation. In addition, large values of NICS isosurfaces serve to locate the independent spherical aromatic states, whereas the use of anisotropy (NICSaniso) recovers the resulting isotropic regions at such states within the overall linear structure. Such behavior is expected to be envisaged in extended linear arrays and non-covalently interacting scenarios, such as self-assembled monolayers. Our results encourage further quests for understanding the interplay between different linked aromatic states, envisaging and unraveling the overall behavior of extended architectures designed by connecting aromatic building units.","PeriodicalId":99,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143375309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
