$(Cin)Cu(NO_3)_2$으로 변성된 턴소반죽전극을 제작하여 $I^-$이온을 벗김전압전류법을 이용하여 정량하였다. $I^-$이온은 변성제인 $(Cin)Cu(NO_3)_2$착물에 배위된 $NO_3^-$와 이온교환에 의해 변전극에 감응하며, 산화전위는 +0.72 V였다, $I^-$ 이온의 최적분석 조건은 다음과 같다: 농축용액의 조성은 0.1 M $KNO_3$, 농축시간은 10분, 탄소분말에 대한 변성제의 함량은 40%(w/w). 선형주사 양극벗김전압전류법(Linear Sweep Anodic Stripping Voltammetry)에 의한 $I^-$이온의 검출한계는 $1.0{\times}10^{-6}M$이며, $2.0{\times}10^{-5}M$에서 구한 상대표준편차는 ${\pm}5.5%$였다. 여러 음이온에 대하여 방해작용을 검토한 결과 $Cl^-,\;Br^-,\;C_2O_4^{2-},\;ClO_4^-$ 등은 $I^-$이온의 정량에 영향을 주지 않았지만, $SCN^-$ 이온은 $I^-$ 이온의 산화전류를 약 32% 감소시켰다.

The electrolyte plays one of the most significant roles in the performance of electrochemical supercapacitors. Most liquid organic electrolytes used commercially have temperature and potential range constraints, which limit the possible energy and power output of the supercapacitor. The effect of elevated temperature on a lithium bis(oxalate)borate(LiBOB) salt-based electrolyte was evaluated in a symmetric supercapacitor assembled with activated carbon electrodes and different electrolyte blends of acetonitrile(ACN) and propylene carbonate(PC). The electrochemical properties were investigated using linear sweep voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge cycles, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. In particular, it was shown that LiBOB is stable at an operational temperature of $80^{\circ}C$, and that, blending the solvents helps to improve the overall performance of the supercapacitor. The cells retained about 81% of the initial specific capacitance after 1000 galvanic cycles in the potential range of 0-2.5 V. Thus, LiBOB/ACN:PC electrolytes exhibit a promising role in supercapacitor applications under elevated temperature conditions.

Energy storage devices have received a keen interest throughout the world due to high power consumption. A large number of research activities are being conducted on electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) because of their high power density and higher energy density. In the present study, an EDLC was fabricated using natural graphite based electrodes and ionic liquid (IL) based gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). The IL based GPE was prepared using the IL, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate (1E3MITF) with the polymer poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and the salt magnesium trifluoromethanesulfonate (Mg(CF₃SO₃)₂ - MgTF). GPE was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), DC polarization test, linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) test and cyclic voltammetry (CV) test. The maximum room temperature conductivity of the sample was 1.64 × 10^-4 Scm^-1. The electrolyte was purely an ionic conductor and the anionic contribution was prominent. Fabricated EDLC was characterized by EIS, CV and galvanostatic charge discharge (GCD) tests. CV test of the EDLC exhibits a single electrode specific capacitance of 1.44 Fg^-1 initially and GCD test gives 0.83 Fg^-1 as initial single electrode specific discharge capacitance. Moreover, a good stability was observed for prolonged cycling and the device can be used for applications with further modifications.

The incorporation of room temperature ionic liquids (IL) in poly (ethyleneoxide)-lithium salt (PEO-LiX) based solid polymer electrolytes is presently being studied as an effective means of enhancing the room temperature ionic conductivity of these electrolytes to acceptable levels for use in lithium batteries. In the present study, $PEO_{20}-LiTFSI$ solid polymer electrolyte was blended with three different ionic liquids, namely 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (BMIMTFSI), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetraflouroborate (BMIMBF4) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluromethanesulfonate ($BMIMCF_{3}SO_{3}$). The incorporation of all these ILs resulted in the enhancement of ionic conductivity, the effect being more pronounced at lower temperatures. Electrochemical properties of the blended electrolytes were studied by cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and interfacial resistance measurements. The optimum results were obtained with the blending of BMIMTFSI in the solid polymer electrolyte.

In this study, the novel electrochemical and colorimetric analysis methods are suggested to estimate the degree of phosphoric acid ion poisoning on Pt based catalyst surface and to confirm the possibility of replacing the expensive and long time consumed conventional methods. As the ways, the electrochemical half cell tests such as cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) are used and the change in chemical behavior by absorption of the phosphoric acid ion on Pt based catalyst surface and hydrogen peroxide decomposition reaction are successfully recognized by colorimetric measurements. Conclusively, it is proved that the new methods show superior sensitivity for identifying the degree of phosphoric acid poisoned on Pt based catalyst.

This paper describes a two-step approach for the electrochemical deposition of CdZnS thin films on the polycrystalline Au electrode. Initially, an Au substrate is electrochemically modified with a sulfur layer. In the second step, the layer is electroreduced to $S^{2-}$ in the electrolyte dosed with the requisite amount of $Cd^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions to generate CdZnS films in situ. This approach was validated using a combination of linear sweep voltammetry and electrochemical quartz crystal microgravimetry. Thus synthesized CdZnS thin films have different composition depending on the composition of electrolytes. CdZnS thin films are characterized by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and Raman spectroscopy.

Electrochemical behaviors of acetaminophen at a muti-wall carbon nano-tube composite film modified glassy carbon electrode were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and chronocoulometry. Compared with that obtained at the unmodified electrode, the peak currents were enhanced significantly, and the oxidation peak shifted towards more negative potential with the reduction peak shifted positively. The peak-to-peak separation turned narrow, and suggested that the reversibility was improved greatly. Experimental parameters, such as scan rate, pH and accumulation conditions were optimized. It was found that a maximum current response can be obtained at pH = 5.0 after accumulation at -0.50 V for 80 s. The oxidation peak current was found to be linearly related to acetaminophen concentration over the range of $5.0{\times}10^{-7}\;\sim\;1.0{\times}10^{-4}$ mol $L^{-1}$ with a detection limit of $5.0{\times}10^{-8} $mol $L^{-1}$. A convenient and sensitive electrochemical method was developed for the determination of acetaminophen in a commercial paracetamol oral solution. Its practical application demonstrated that it has good selectivity and high sensitivity.

Electrocatalysis of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) using Pt nanoparticles or bimetal on carabon was studied. Currently, the best catalyst is platinum, which is a limited resource and expensive to commercialize. In this paper, we investigated the cheaper and more active electrocatalysts by making Pt nanoparticles and adding 3D transition metal such as copper. Electrocatalysts were obtained by chemical reduction based on ethylene glycol solutions. Elemental analysis and particle size were confirmed by XRD and TEM. The electrochemical surface area (ECSA) and activity of the catalyst were determined by electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry method. The commercialized Pt support on carbon (Pt/C, JM), synthesis Pt/C and synthesis Pt3Cu1 alloy nanoparticles supported on carbon were compared. We confirmed that the synthesized Pt3-Cu1/C has high electrochemical performance than commercial Pt/C. It is expected to develop an electrocatalyst with high activity at low price by increasing the oxygen reduction reaction rate of the fuel cell.

False smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is an important rice fungal disease that significantly decreases its production. In the recent past, conventional methods have been developed for its detection that is time-consuming and need high-cost equipments. The research and development in nanotechnology have made it possible to assemble efficient recognition interfaces in biosensors. In this study, we present a simple, sensitive, and selective oxidized graphene-based geno-biosensor for the detection of rice false smut. The biosensor has been developed using a probe DNA as a biological recognition element on paper electrodes, and oxidized graphene to enhance the limit of detection and sensitivity of the sensor. Probe single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and target ssDNA hybridization on the interface surface has been quantitatively measured with the electrochemical analysis tools namely, cyclic voltammetry, and linear sweep voltammetry. To confirm the selectivity of the device, probe hybridization with non-complementary ssDNA target has been studied. In our study, the developed sensor was able to detect up to 10 fM of target ssDNA. The paper electrodes were employed to produce an effective and cost-effective platform for the immobilization of the DNA and can be extended to design low-cost biosensors for the detection of the other plant pathogens.

Electrochemical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) based on solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) have gained an immense recognition in the present world due to their unique properties. This study is about preparing and characterizing EDLCs using a natural rubber (NR) based SPE with natural graphite (NG) electrodes. NR electrolyte was consisted with 49% methyl grafted natural rubber (MG49) and zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate ((Zn(CF₃SO₃)₂-ZnTF). It was characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test, dc polarization test and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) test. NG electrodes were made using a slurry of NG and acetone. EIS test, cyclic voltammetry (CV) test and galvanostatic charge discharge (GCD) test have been done to characterize the EDLC. Optimized electrolyte composition with NR: 0.6 ZnTF (weight basis) exhibited a conductivity of 0.6 x 10^-4 Scm^-1 at room temperature. Conductivity was predominantly due to ions. The electrochemical stability window was found to be from 0.25 V to 2.500 V. Electrolyte was sandwiched between two identical NG electrodes to fabricate an EDLC. Single electrode specific capacitance was about 2.26 Fg^-1 whereas the single electrode discharge capacitance was about 1.17 Fg^-1. The EDLC with this novel NR-ZnTF based SPE evidences its suitability to be used for different applications with further improvement.
