Diazinon or O,O-diethyl-O-(2-isopropyl-4-methyl-6-pyrimidinyl)-O,O-diethyl-O-(2- isopropyl-4-methyl-6-pyrimidinyl)- phosphorothioate, was first registered as an insecticide in the U.S. However, it was categorized in the limited group of pesticides due to high toxicity for birds, aquatic animals, and humans. Like other organophosphorus pesticides, this compound exhibits inhibitory effects on acetylcholinesterase enzyme. The inhibition of the enzyme leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine and causes the death of insects. DZN is considered a toxic compound for humans due to its high adsorption via skin and inhalation, which leads to the emergence of different symptoms of toxicity. When DZN is used for plants, the compound residues in crops enter the food chain, and hence, bring about different problems for human health. Moreover, the compound is easily washed by surface water and enters the groundwater. Its entrance into aquatic environments can negatively affect a wide range of non-targeted organisms. Thus, researchers are seeking to find fast and precise methods for the recognition of DZN. The electrochemical method for recognizing the compound in real samples is preferable to other analytical methods. Because this method can be used without spending time preparing the sample, it is simple, fast, and cost-effective. The present study is an overall review describing electrochemical-based methods for the recognition of DZN. Methods of modifying electrodes with CNT, polymers, biomolecules, and the simultaneous use of multiple methods are evaluated and compared. The influential factors contributing to the improvement of the signal response are also explained.

The pulse plasma system is a surface modification method applied to steel samples. In the present study, the effect of the nozzle distance and pulse number parameters were investigated on the modification process. AISI 4140 steel was preferred as the substrate for modification. In this system, the battery capacity and voltage were constant, and, were selected as 800 mF and 3000 V, respectively. The AISI 4140 steel samples were modified by applying 5, 10, and 15 pulses with 40, 50 and 60 mm nozzle distance. The molybdenum consumable electrode was used during the process. The modified surfaces were examined by optical and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and analyzed by X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Vickers microhardness on the cross-section surface of the samples was measured under a load of 50 g for 15 s. Finally, the specimens were exposed to corrosion in 0.5 M NaCl solution. Corrosion tests were realized using the potentiodynamic polarization method. A modified layer on the steel was determined to consist of two layers, the compound layer and the diffusion layer. It was observed that the structure and thickness of the modified layer affect by pulse number and nozzle distance. New phases such as Fe2N, FeN, MoN, and γ-Fe in the modified layer have occurred. The hardness value of the treated sample has risen about 4-5 times than the untreated, depending on applied process parameters. In general, the pulse plasma treatment has improved the corrosion resistance of treated samples. It was observed that while intergranular corrosion has formed on the unmodified surface, pitting corrosion has appeared on the unmodified surfaces.

A new voltammetric sensor is proposed for the determination of bisphenol A, using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with Fe3O4/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite. The modification of the electrode surface was performed by dispersion drop-casting. The electrochemical behavior of bisphenol A was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The oxidation peak was observed during the anodic potential scan at potentials of 0.45 V. Higher anodic peak currents (Ipa) were observed at Fe3O4/GO/GCE modified electrode than at bare GCE. The electrochemical determination by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) revealed a linear response in the concentration range of 1.0×10-7 to 5.0×10-5 M, with a detection limit of 9.0×10-8 M. The proposed method was successfully applied using water samples, with good recoveries.

The process of electrodeposition of nickel coatings from electrolytes based on a deep eutectic solvent (DES) mixture of choline chloride and lactic acid with a molar ratio of 1:3 was studied. The physicochemical properties and characteristics of DES, namely, conductivity, FT-IR and NMR analysis were determined. FT-IR results confirmed that H-bonds occurring between two components in DES were the main force leading to the eutectic formation. Electrochemical techniques were used to characterize the deposition process and scanning electron microscopy was used to study the deposit morphology. Based on polarization measurements, it has been found that at NiCl2·6H2O content of 1.14 M and a temperature of 75 °C, the limiting current density of nickel electrodeposition was near 2 A dm-2. The polarization of the cathodic nickel deposition varied within -0.63 to 1.1 V at current density of 0.25 A dm-2 It has been shown that an increase of water content in the electrolyte does not significantly affect the current efficiency of the nickel electrodeposition process, which was in a range 85-93 %. However, the increase in water content contributes to the increase of heterogeneity and crystal grains size distribution of galvanic deposits. The established values of the Wagner number indicate the predominance of the primary current density distribution in the process of electrodeposition of nickel coatings. Galvanic coatings possess a highly developed nanostructured surface, exhibit increased capillary properties, and can be used as electrode materials for the process of electrolysis of water.
研究了氯化胆碱与乳酸摩尔比为1:3的深共熔溶剂(DES)电解液电沉积镍镀层的工艺。测定了DES的物理化学性质和特征,即电导率、FT-IR和NMR分析。FT-IR结果证实了DES中两组分之间的氢键是导致共晶形成的主要力量。利用电化学技术对沉积过程进行表征,并利用扫描电镜对沉积形貌进行研究。在NiCl2·6H2O含量为1.14 M、温度为75℃时,电沉积镍的极限电流密度接近2 a dm-2。在0.25 A dm-2的电流密度下,阴极镍沉积的极化变化范围在-0.63 ~ 1.1 V之间。结果表明,电解液含水量的增加对镍电沉积过程的电流效率影响不显著,在85 ~ 93%之间。但随着水含量的增加,电镀层的非均质性和晶粒尺寸分布增加。瓦格纳数的确定值表明,在镍镀层电沉积过程中,初级电流密度分布占主导地位。电镀层具有高度发达的纳米结构表面,具有增强的毛细管性能,可以用作电解水过程的电极材料。

In this study, the effect of operating temperature at 55 °C on xLi2MnO3-(1-x)LiMn0.5Ni0.5O2 electrodes during the charge/discharge process at different current densities was investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used for structural and morphological analysis of the fabricated cathode materials, while charge-discharge curves and differential capacity were used to study the electrochemical behavior. Results confirm the formation of the structures with two phases associated with the components of the layered material. It was found that at 55 °C, a capacity higher than 357 mAh g-1 could be achieved at a voltage of 2.5-4.8 V vs. Li/Li+, which was larger than the capacity achieved at room temperature. At 55 °C, a change in valence could be observed during charging and discharging due to the change in the position of the peaks associated with Mn and Ni, highlighting cathodic material with x = 0.5 as the material that retains the layered structure at this temperature. This work confirms the good performance of electrodes made with this material at elevated temperatures and gives a better understanding of its electrochemical behavior.
