The domain of soluble metallopolymers (i.e., polymers spontaneously obtained from the self-assembly metal ions and polytopic bridging ligands) is promising for construction novel materials with perspectives in magnetic, redox, optical, electrochromic, or mechanical properties. We report preparation characterization metallo-supramolecular gels based on a multitopic cyclam bis-terpyridine platform (CHTT) that are representative second generation molecular exhibiting "intelligent" systems were...
Soluble homo- and heterometallic coordination polymers containing transition metal cations (Cu(2+), Fe(2+), Co(2+), Ni(2+) ions) were prepared in a two-step procedure using polytopic bis(terpyridine)dioxocyclam ligand 1H(2) (dioxocyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-5,7-dione). These supramolecular systems incorporate two different complexes, the being located both between terpyridine units macrocyclic framework. The characterization of these soluble architectures was investigated by...
We present the decoration of N-doped graphene entangled in mesoporous carbon by nickel and/or cobalt nanoparticles. The textural properties materials were characterized nitrogen desorption isotherms. presented metallic nanoparticles at least 20 nm and diffraction peaks typical cubic or nickel. Transmission microscopy revealed presence layers, organized mostly an onionlike fashion around nanoparticles, suggesting that these might promote formation extra sheets from surrounding amorphous...
A new, easy and versatile method for graphene inclusion within resorcinol–formaldehyde is presented applied to the nanoconfinement of LiBH<sub>4</sub>.
A polytopic cyclam−bis-terpyridine ligand has been used to accomplish an acid–base-triggered formation of either a mononuclear neutral complex or metallopolymers with Cu2+ ions. controlled interconversion between these two forms was achieved through the reversible displacement cation from macrocycle terpyridine units.
Abstract Summary: Soluble coordination polymers and gels built from a polytopic ligand containing two terpyridine units linked by azamacrocyclic group are presented. This system originally incorporates different types of metal complexes in the same polymer chain which induces remarkable electrochromic properties rare redox triggered reversible sol‐gel transition.
Abstract This work reports the analytical applications of a graphene paste electrode (GrPE) for quantification dopamine, ethanol and phenolic compounds. Dopamine was detected by differential pulse voltammetry‐adsorptive stripping with medium exchange at submicromolar levels even in presence high excess ascorbic acid serotonin. The electrocatalytic activity towards oxidation NADH reduction quinones allowed sensitive amperometric determination phenols using GrPE modified alcohol...
A carbon matrix with pores of distinct diameters was gradually filled LiBH4, and the corresponding nitrogen adsorption isotherms are presented. Four resins were prepared characterized individually; micropores mesopores defined sizes (6, 10, 15, 25 nm) observed. Then, four mixed to obtain a material composed populations comparable volumes (0.18 cm3 for 0.16 each mesopore, 0.82 in total). This mixture impregnated LiBH4 by melt impregnation at 30, 50, 70, 90 vol %, determine how fills matrix,...

In this work, we report a simple and scalable method to produce high efficiency 3D graphene-based electrodes (GH) for bioelectrochemical systems. GH were obtained by self-assembly of graphene oxide, through slow reduction with ascorbic acid over conductive mesh-works (carbon cloth stainless-steel).

We present a comprehensive thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of polyethylenimine (PEI)-impregnated resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) aerogels. While numerous studies focus on PEI-impregnated SBA, RF materials have been less examined, despite their interest and specificities. As most articles porous follow typical experimental methods defined for particularities RF-PEI could remain unheeded. The design nonisothermal TGA protocols, completed with nitrogen isotherms, based the systematic filling...
