  1. 1. Characterization of a Novel Tubular Carbon Fibre Based Electrode for Dopamine Detection with Fast Scan Cyclic Voltammetry

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Sofia Hansson; [2022]
    Keywords : FSCV; Carbon Fibre Microelectrodes; Electrode development; Dopamine; Parkinson’s disease; In-vitro; FSCV; Kolfibermikroelektroder; Elektrodutveckling; Dopamin; Parkinsons sjukdom; In-vitro;

    Abstract : Fast Scan Cyclic Voltammetry (FSCV) is an electrochemical technique, based on ramping a voltage through a microelectrode and measuring the resulting redox current to obtain information about an electroactive molecule. FSCV can be used for the detection of dopamine, which is a vital neurotransmitter. READ MORE

  3. 2. An Initial Exploration of Transition Metal Nitroprussides as Electrode Materials for Sodium-ion Batteries

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Veronica Enblom; [2022]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; Transition metal nitroprussides; Electrode materials; Prussian blue analogues; Cathode materials; Nitrosyl redox; Anisotropic charge transfer; Hysteresis; Sustainable batteries;

    Abstract : Na-ion batteries (NIBs) are expected to revolutionise the battery sector by promising an affordable technology while capitalising on sustainable development. To compete with Li-ion batteries, however, electrode materials with higher capacities need to be developed. READ MORE

  4. 3. Patterning of Highly Conductive Conjugated Polymers for Actuator Fabrication

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biosensorer och bioelektronik

    Author : Daniel Falk; [2015]
    Keywords : Biosensors; Bioelectronics; Microactuators; Conjugated polymers; Polypyrrole; PEDOT; Soft Lithography; Microcontact printing; Vapor phase polymerization; Drop-on-Demand printing; Photolithography; Lift-off;

    Abstract : Trilayer polypyrrole microactuators that can operate in air have previously been developed. They consist of two outer layers ofthe electroactive polymer polypyrrole (PPy) and one inner layer of a porous poly(vinylidene flouride) (PVDF) membranecontaining a liquid electrolyte. READ MORE

  5. 4. Experimental study of a dielectric elastomer

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Mujtaba Al-Ibadi; [2015]
    Keywords : electroactive; polymer; EAP; dielectric; elastomer; SAXS; WAXS; DIC; artificial; muscle; experimental; VHB; x-ray; scattering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A number of different experiments on a dielectric elastomer, VHB 4910, were performed: uniaxial tensile strain tests, in situ SAXS/WAXS measurements of a sample under uniaxial tensile loading and DIC measurements of an electrically loaded circular sample with simultaneous force measurements around the circular boundary using a novel method developed in this thesis. The results are presented and analysed mainly from an experimental perspective. READ MORE

  6. 5. PEDOT Coated Viscose Fibers by Optimized OCVD Process : Washing and Stretch Sensing Properties

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Textilhögskolan

    Author : MAJID ALI; [2013]
    Keywords : Viscose yarn; conductive polymers; PEDOT; ferric III chloride; ferric tosylate p-toluene sulfonate ; stretch sensors;

    Abstract : Electroactive textile fibers are key components in smart and interactive textile applications. In previous research on textile base conductive fibers, viscose fibers were coated with poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophne) (PEDOT) using oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) technique[1].
