Series of measurements have been conducted in order to determine the relationship between generated thrust and corona discharge current, as well as its dependence on geometrical characteristics of the electrodes, e.g. electrode gap, wire and cylinder radii. The experimental investigation has shown a linear relationship between the generated thrust and the discharge current, while parametric analysis showed that increased electrode gap and emitter radius reduces the thrust. On the other hand, large gaps favor the thrust per unit power ratio.展开更多

In ...The recent rapid growth in electronics has reached the point where there is a need for solid-state devices with excellent physical flexibility, which will be a significant advantage in modern electronic devices. In particular, metal nanowires and nano-particles are chosen for electrodes because of their low resistance and high mechanical stability. Among the various alternatives, Ag nanomaterials have recently garnered increasing attention due to the high intrinsic conductivity, a transparency with a low sheet resistance and relatively low cost. We herein summarize recent developments toward flexible electronics on the basis of Ag nanomaterials , which show promising performance and outperform the commonly used. The typical fabrication techniques along with the promising applications for flexible devices, are thoroughly discussed.展开更多

However, it is still a critical challenge to coat active materials onto the aimed metal wires because of their smooth surface and small specific surface area. In this work, high porous nickel yarns(PNYs) was fabricated using commercial nylon yarns as templates through step-wise electroless plating, electroplating and calcination processes. The PNYs are composed of multiplied fibers with hollow tubular structure of 5–10 μm in diameter, allowing the imbibition of carbon nanotubes(CNTs) solution by a facile capillary action process. The prepared CNTs/PNY electrodes showed a typical electrochemical double layer capacitive performance and the constructed allsolid flexible wire-shaped symmetric supercapacitors provided a specific capacitance of 4.67 F/cm3 with good cycling stability at a current density of 0.6 A/cm3.展开更多

The chloride ISEs (ion selective electrodes) in this research were the solid membrane chloride ISEs based AgC1. There were two types of chloride ISEs that were developed, namely the chloride ISEs of coated wire and composite systems. Both types of electrodes were characterized. The selectivity was done by comparing Esel of the chloride standard solutions and Esel of the interference ions (Br- and I-). The measurement of chloride ions in water samples was done by using the coated wire chloride ISE, the composite chloride ISE and the Mohr method. We compared the result of the two chloride ISE methods to that of standard method for chloride determination (Mohr) by using F-test and Post Hoc Test LSD (least significant difference) and Duncan. Analysis by using F-test and Post Hoc Test (LSD and Duncan) and characterization results of both the methods showed that coated wire chloride ISE was more effective compared to composite chloride ISE. Nemstian response was 59.83 mV/decade, linier range measurement was 10-1-10-5 M, limit detection was 1.23 × 10-5 M, response time along was 25 s and interfering ion was 10-4 M Br-.展开更多

The best performance was obtained with a membrane composition of 10.0% (w/w) ion-pair, 45.0% DOP (w/w) and 45.0% PVC (w/w). The electrode showed a Nemstian response (with a slope of 58.70 mV decade-1) for the concentration range of 4.2 × 10-5-1.0 ×10-2 mol/L. It illustrates a relatively fast response time in the whole concentration range (-15 s) in a pH range of 3.0-7.5. The selectivity coefficients were determined in relation to several inorganic and organic species. DAP is determined successfully in pure solutions and in biological fuids using the standard additions and petentiometric titrations methods.展开更多

A Ag/AgCl wire was used as the substrate of this electrode. It was previously coated with a thin sheet of urea-formaldehyde resin containing Cl - ions to form a needle-shaped inner reference electrode, then the inner reference electrode was coated with a thin sheet of a PVC membrane containing an enoxacin tetraphenylborate ion-pair complex. The influences of various ion-pair complexes, concentrations of the active components in the membrane and the plasticizers on the performance of the electrode were studied by orthogonal design. The linear response range of the electrode was 7.9×10 -5 -1.0×10 -2 mol/L. The detection limit was 2.0×10 -5 mol/L. The slope was 30.4 mV/decade(25 ℃). The electrode can be used for the potentiometric determination of enoxacin tablets directly. The average recovery was 100.4%, and the RSD was 0.9%. The results agreed with those determined by the method in Chinese Pharmacopoeia.展开更多
