Solid oxide fuel cells produced at Ris DTU have been tested as solid oxide electrolysis cells for steam electrolysis by applying an external voltage. Varying the sealing on the hydrogen electrode side of the setup verifies that the previously reported passivation over the first few hundred hours of electrolysis testin…
Dynamic surface rearrangement and thermal stability of N-functional groups on carbon nanotubes (CNTs), obtained by functionalization of pristine CNTs with NH(3), were studied by temperature-programmed XPS and MS: a link between the stability of the functional group and decomposition temperature have been established a…
Nanotechnology is expected to open some new aspects to fight and prevent diseases using atomic scale tailoring of materials. The ability to uncover the structure and function of biosystems at the nanoscale, stimulates research leading to improvement in biology, biotechnology, medicine and healthcare. The size of nanom…
Pd-Au/C and Pd-Ag/C were found to have a unique characteristic of evolving high-quality hydrogen dramatically and steadily from the catalyzed decomposition of liquid formic acid at convenient temperature, and further this was improved by the addition of CeO(2)(H(2)O)(x).
Gold nanoparticle-polymer composites are versatile and diverse functional materials, with applications in optical, electronic and sensing devices. This tutorial review focuses on the use of polymers to control the assembly of gold nanoparticles. Examples of synthetic polymers and biopolymers are provided, as well as a…
In this article we report the successful manufacture of a novel functionalized graphene sheet (FGS)/silicone porous nanocomposite. Both the cellular microstructure and the properties of the porous nanocomposite were investigated in detail. The thermal properties show great stability and heat dissipation efficiency, hi…
Interaction with electron-donor and -acceptor molecules such as aniline and nitrobenzene brings about marked changes in the D, G, G' and 2D bands of the Raman spectrum and the electronic structure of graphene, prepared by the exfoliation of graphitic oxide.
Barium titanate is the first ferroelectric ceramics and a good candidate for a variety of applications due to its excellent dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. Barium titanate is a member of a large family of compounds with the general formula ABO3 called perovskites. Barium titanate can be prepare…
Strategies used to grow large graphenes and graphene-based materials through chemical approaches are discussed. Molecular graphenes are believed to be suitable precursors for growing large graphenes as well as fabricating graphene-based materials. The structure of the precursor and the thermolysis procedure determine…
Freezing and melting of H(2)O and D(2)O in the cylindrical pores of well-characterized MCM-41 silica materials (pore diameters from 2.5 to 4.4 nm) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and (1)H NMR cryoporometry. Well-resolved DSC melting and freezing peaks were obtained for pore diameters down to 3.0…
Polymer nanocomposites with metal oxide nanoparticle fillers exhibit enhanced electrical breakdown strength and voltage endurance compared to their unfilled or micron filled counterparts. This paper presents the following hypothesis for the mechanisms leading to improved properties. The inclusion of nanoparticles prov…
The antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles has resulted in their widespread use in many consumer products. However, despite the continuing increase in the population exposed to silver nanoparticles, the effects of prolonged exposure to silver nanoparticles have not been thoroughly determined. Accordingly, this…
This critical review deals with the history of Au55(PPh3)12Cl6 and its derivatives from the very beginning in 1981 to date. Au55 clusters obtain their special interest from their ultimate size and their ideal cuboctahedral structure. They are part of the family of so-called full-shell clusters, particles with perfectl…
The utilization of hydrogen as an energy source or carrier for fuel-cell powered vehicles is limited by the lack of a safe and effective hydrogen storage system. Recent advances in the application of hydrogen spillover for hydrogen storage have provided a promising route for hydrogen storage. An overview of the progre…
This work contributes to the development of a new generation of active corrosion protection coatings composed of hybrid sol−gel films doped with halloysite nanotubes able to release entrapped corrosion inhibitors in a controllable way. A silica-zirconia-based hybrid film was used in this work as an anticorrosion coati…
Abstract Cellulose acetate is one of the most important esters of cellulose. Depending on the way it has been processed cellulose acetate can be used for great varies of applications (e.g. for films, membranes or fibers). The properties of the applied cellulose acetates are very important for these applications. A spe…
The nickel oxide nano-flakes materials prepared by a facile approach maintain high power density at high rates of discharge and have excellent cycle life, suggesting their potential application in supercapacitors.
Single chain magnets (SCMs) are an interesting class of molecular polymeric materials displaying slow relaxation of the magnetization. They provide, at low temperatures, a magnetic hysteretic behaviour for a single polymeric chain. Although their behaviour evokes better-known magnetic nanoparticles and single-molecule…
