Improved Chloride Ion Sensing Performance of Flexible Ag-NPs/AgCl Electrode Sensor Using Cu-BTC as an Effective Adsorption Layer.

ABSTRACT: We designed the flexible chloride ion selective sensor that directly monitors electrochemical reactions of chloride ions without using a reference electrode. A flexible polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) substrate was utilized to provide bendability to the fabricated sensor. As an ion selective material, Ag nanoparticles were employed on the MWCNTs loaded on the PTFE substrate. Enhanced adsorption property of the fabricated sensor toward the chloride ions was given by incorporation of hydrophilic copper benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Cu-BTC) with great flexibility and stability. Accordingly, compared to the bare sensor the sensing performance of the Cu-BTC treated Ag NPs/AgCl electrode sensor was improved by indicating the decrease in response and recovery time about 4 times. It elucidated that the Cu-BTC layer could work as an effective medium between the Ag-NPs surface and electrolyte containing chloride ions. As a result of contact angle measurement, the hydrophilicity much increased in the Cu-BTC treated sensor because the exposed surface of the sensor not treated by the Cu-BTC largely consisted of hydrophobic MWCNTs. Furthermore, the Cu-BTC layer could hold the electrolyte for effective adsorption of analytes with large specific surface area.

Facial Fabrication and Characterization of Novel Ag/AgCl Chloride Ion Sensor Based on Gel-Type Electrolyte.

Project description:In this study, a novel chloride ion (Cl-) sensor based on Ag wire coated with an AgCl layer was fabricated using a gel-type internal electrolyte and a diatomite ceramic membrane, which played an important role in preventing electrolyte leakage from the ion-selective electrode. The sensing performance, including reversibility, response, recovery time, low detection limit, and the long-term stability, was systemically investigated in electrolytes with different Cl- contents. The as-fabricated Cl- sensor could detect Cl- from 1 to 500 mM KCl solution with good linearity. The best response and recovery time obtained for the optimized sensor were 0.5 and 0.1 s, respectively, for 10 mM KCl solution. An exposure period of over 60 days was used to evaluate the stability of the Cl- sensor in KCl solution. A relative error of 2% was observed between the initial and final response potentials. Further, a wireless sensing system based on Arduino was also investigated to measure the response potential of Cl- in an electrolyte. The sensor exhibited high reliability with a low standard error of measurement. This type of sensor is crucial for fabricating wireless Cl- sensors for applications in reinforced concrete structures along with favorable performances.

Efficiency above 12% for 1 cm<sup>2</sup> Flexible Organic Solar Cells with Ag/Cu Grid Transparent Conducting Electrode.

Project description:With the rapid progress of organic solar cells (OSCs), improvement in the efficiency of large-area flexible OSCs (>1 cm2) is crucial for real applications. However, the development of the large-area flexible OSCs severely lags behind the growth of the small-area OSCs, with the electrical loss due to the large sheet resistance of the electrode being a main reason. Herein, a high conductive and high transparent Ag/Cu composite grid with sheet resistance <1 ? sq-1 and an average visible light transparency of 84% is produced as the transparent conducting electrode of flexible OSCs. Based on this Ag/Cu composite grid electrode, a high efficiency of 12.26% for 1 cm2 flexible OSCs is achieved. The performances of large-area flexible OSCs also reach 7.79% (4 cm2) and 7.35% (9 cm2), respectively, which are much higher than those of the control devices with conventional flexible indium tin oxide electrodes. Surface planarization using highly conductive PEDOT:PSS and modification of the ZnO buffer layer by zirconium acetylacetonate (ZrAcac) are two necessary steps to achieve high performance. The flexible OSCs employing Ag/Cu grid have excellent mechanical bending resistance, maintaining high performance after bending at a radius of 2 mm.

SEIRAS Study of Chloride-Mediated Polyether Adsorption on Cu.

Project description:Surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy is used to examine the co-adsorption of a selection of polyethers with Cl- under conditions relevant to superconformal Cu electrodeposition in CuSO4-H2SO4 electrolytes. In 0.1 mol/L H2SO4, a potential-dependent mixed SO42--H3O+/H2O layer forms on weakly textured (111) Cu thin-film surfaces. With the addition of 1 mmol/L NaCl, the SO42--H3O+/H2O adlayer is displaced and rapidly replaced by an ordered halide layer that disrupts the adjacent solvent network, leading to an increase in non-hydrogen-bonded water that makes the interface more hydrophobic. The altered wetting behavior facilitates co-adsorption of polyethers, such as poly(ethylene glycols), polyoxamers, or polyoxamines. Interfacial water is displaced by co-adsorption of the hydrophobic polymer segments on the Cl--terminated surface, while the hydrophilic ether oxygens are available for hydrogen bond formation with the solvent. The combined polyether-Cl- layer serves as an effective suppressor of the Cu electrodeposition reaction by limiting access of Cuaq2+ to the underlying metal surface. This insight differs from previous work which suggested that polymer adsorption is mediated by Cu+-ether binding.

Flexible Textile-Based Organic Transistors Using Graphene/Ag Nanoparticle Electrode.

Project description:Highly flexible and electrically-conductive multifunctional textiles are desirable for use in wearable electronic applications. In this study, we fabricated multifunctional textile composites by vacuum filtration and wet-transfer of graphene oxide films on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) textile in association with embedding Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) to improve the electrical conductivity. A flexible organic transistor can be developed by direct transfer of a dielectric/semiconducting double layer on the graphene/AgNP textile composite, where the textile composite was used as both flexible substrate and conductive gate electrode. The thermal treatment of a textile-based transistor enhanced the electrical performance (mobility = 7.2 cm²·V-1·s-1, on/off current ratio = 4 × 10⁵, and threshold voltage = -1.1 V) due to the improvement of interfacial properties between the conductive textile electrode and the ion-gel dielectric layer. Furthermore, the textile transistors exhibited highly stable device performance under extended bending conditions (with a bending radius down to 3 mm and repeated tests over 1000 cycles). We believe that our simple methods for the fabrication of graphene/AgNP textile composite for use in textile-type transistors can potentially be applied to the development of flexible large-area electronic clothes.

Study of thin layer film evolution near bacterial cellulose membrane by Ag|AgCl electrodes in chamber with lower concentration.

Project description:We used the method of measuring potential difference between two Ag|AgCl electrodes immersed directly into electrolyte solution with lower concentration and at different distances from membrane. The bacterial cellulose membrane was placed in horizontal plane in the membrane system with configurations with higher NaCl concentration and density under (A) and over the membrane (B). In both configurations at the initial moment the voltage between electrodes amounted to zero. After turning off mechanical stirring of solutions, in configuration A we observed the monotonic increase and next stabilization of voltage while in configuration B after short time dependent on the initial quotient of NaCl concentrations on the membrane we observed appearance of pulsations of measured voltage and gradual decrease of mean voltage over time. Smooth changes of voltage are connected with diffusional reconstruction of Concentration Boundary Layers (CBLs) while fast increase and subsequent pulsations of voltage are connected with the appearance of hydrodynamic instabilities (gravitational convection) near membrane imposed on diffusive reconstruction of thin layer. The time needed for the appearance of hydrodynamic instabilities in CBL depended nonlinearly on the initial ratio of electrolyte concentrations on the membrane.

Effect of metal-ligand ratio on the CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption properties of Cu-BTC metal-organic frameworks.

Project description:Initially, in the synthesis of Cu-BTC MOFs some fraction of Cu was expected to be replaced with Mg to enhance its CO2 adsorption properties. Indeed, an enhancement in the specific surface area, microporosity and CO2 adsorption capacity was observed; however, Mg was not detected. Therefore, additional syntheses of Cu-BTC MOFs with the same Cu to BTC ratios were performed but in the absence of Mg to explain the observed enhancement. It was found that the adjustment of the Cu-BTC ratio to 1.09 : 1.0, which differs from that reported in the literature, resulted in a Cu-BTC MOF with higher specific BET surface area, larger micropore volume, and consequently, superior CO2 adsorption of 9.33 mmol g-1 at 0 °C and 1 bar.

CdS-Nanowires Flexible Photo-detector with Ag-Nanowires Electrode Based on Non-transfer Process.

Project description:In this study, UV-visible flexible resistivity-type photo-detectors were demonstrated with CdS-nanowires (NWs) percolation network channel and Ag-NWs percolation network electrode. The devices were fabricated on Mixed Cellulose Esters (MCE) membrane using a lithographic filtration method combined with a facile non-transfer process. The photo-detectors demonstrated strong adhesion, fast response time, fast decay time, and high photo sensitivity. The high performance could be attributed to the high quality single crystalline CdS-NWs, encapsulation of NWs in MCE matrix and excellent interconnection of the NWs. Furthermore, the sensing performance was maintained even the device was bent at an angle of 90°. This research may pave the way for the facile fabrication of flexible photo-detectors with high performances.

Architecting Nanostructured Co-BTC@GO Composites for Supercapacitor Electrode Application.

Project description:Herein, we present an innovative graphene oxide (GO)-induced strategy for synthesizing GO-based metal-organic-framework composites (Co-BTC@GO) for high-performance supercapacitors. 1,3,5-Benzene tricarboxylic acid (BTC) is used as an inexpensive organic ligand for the synthesis of composites. An optimal GO dosage was ascertained by the combined analysis of morphology characterization and electrochemical measurement. The 3D Co-BTC@GO composites display a microsphere morphology similar to that of Co-BTC, indicating the framework effect of Co-BTC on GO dispersion. The Co-BTC@GO composites own a stable interface between the electrolyte and electrodes, as well as a better charge transfer path than pristine GO and Co-BTC. A study was conducted to determine the synergistic effects and electrochemical behavior of GO content on Co-BTC. The highest energy storage performance was achieved for Co-BTC@GO 2 (GO dosage is 0.02 g). The maximum specific capacitance was 1144 F/g at 1 A/g, with an excellent rate capability. After 2000 cycles, Co-BTC@GO 2 maintains outstanding life stability of 88.1%. It is expected that this material will throw light on the development of supercapacitor electrodes that hold good electrochemical properties.

Hypnea musciformis-mediated Ag/AgCl-NPs inhibit pathogenic bacteria, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells' growth in vitro and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells in vivo in mice.

Project description:In the present study, Ag/AgCl-NPs were biosynthesised using Hypnea musciformis seaweed extract; NPs synthesis was confirmed by a change of colour and observation of a razor-sharp peak at 424 nm by UV-visible spectroscopy. Synthesised nanoparticles were characterised by transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Bacterial cell growth inhibition proves that the Ag/AgCl-NPs have strong antibacterial activity and cell morphological alteration was observed in treated bacterial cells using propidium iodide (PI). Ag/AgCl-NPs inhibited Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells, colorectal cancer (HCT-116) and breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line in vitro with the IC50 values of 40.45, 24.08 and 36.95 μg/ml, respectively. Initiation of apoptosis in HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells was confirmed using PI, FITC-annexin V and Hoechst 33342 dye. No reaction oxygen species generation was observed in both treated and untreated cell lines. A significant increase of ATG-5 gene expression indicates the possibility of autophagy cell death besides apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. The initiation of apoptosis in EAC cells was confirmed by observing caspase-3 protein expression. Ag/AgCl-NPs inhibited 22.83% and 51% of the EAC cell growth in vivo in mice when administered 1.5 and 3.0 mg/kg/day (i.p.), respectively, for 5 consequent days.
