Investigation of nitrate reduction on polycrystalline Pt nanoparticles with controlled crystal plane

Tetraphenylporphyrin electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction: applicability of molecular volcano plots to experimental operating conditions

“…The average of the differences in half-wave potentials results in an approximate standard potential E °SCE ¼ À0:48 V vs. Fc/Fc + , which falls well within the range of SCE standard potentials reported for various organic solvents. [78][79][80][81][82] Given that E °SSCE ¼ 0:244 V vs. SHE, 83 that E °Ag=AgCl ¼ 0:209 vs. SHE 84 and that and E °SSCE ¼ 0:235 vs. SHE, 85 we have also arrived at E °Ag=AgCl ¼ À0:515 vs. Fc/Fc + , and E °SSCE ¼ À0:489 V vs. Fc/Fc + . These values should not be taken as universal, but only as a means to compare half-wave potentials on the same scale within this work.…”

Cu Modified Pt Nanoflowers with Preferential (100) Surfaces for Selective Electroreduction of Nitrate

“…Accordingly, the bimetallic system based on Pt(100) would require (i) the Pt(100) with extended surface areas that could both anchor the promoter metal atoms and expose enough (100) surface sites for adsorbing the nitrite and (ii) the appropriate coverage of the promoter metal that could achieve selective reduction to N 2 . Considering above, Pt nanostructured materials with a preferential (100) orientation [21][22][23][24] are more favorable for nitrate reduction and highly specific for the N 2 selective formation by decorating a promoter metal, such as the low-cost copper.…”

Unexpected Negative-Ion Conversion in Grazing Scattering of Negative Ions on HOPG

“…The experimental setup has been described in detail elsewhere. ,, The schematic diagram of the experimental setup is shown in Figure . The energy range of the incident C – , O – , and F – ions is 8.5–22.5 keV.…”
