Waste for Product-Synthesis and Electrocatalytic Properties of Palladium Nanopyramid Layer Enriched with PtNPs.

The presented research is the seed of a vision for the development of a waste-for-product strategy. Following this concept, various synthetic solutions containing low concentrations of platinum group metals were used to model their recovery and to produce catalysts. This is also the first report that shows the method for synthesis of a pyramid-like structure deposited on activated carbon composed of Pd and Pt.

Electrocatalytic Performance of Ethanol Oxidation on Ni and Ni/Pd Surface-Decorated Porous Structures Obtained by Molten Salts Deposition/Dissolution of Al-Ni Alloys.

Ni coatings with high catalytic efficiency were synthesised in this work, obtained by increasing the active surface and modifying Pd as a noble metal. Porous Ni foam electrodes were obtained by electrodeposition of Al on a nickel substrate. Deposition of Al was carried out with potential -1.

Synthesis of Co-Fe 1D Nanocone Array Electrodes Using Aluminum Oxide Template.

Porous anodic alumina oxide (AAO) obtained via two-step anodization is a material commonly used as a template for fabricating 1D nanostructures. In this work, copper and cobalt-iron 1D nanocones were obtained by an electrodeposition method using AAO templates. The templates were produced using two-step anodization in HCO.
