Development of electrochemical sensors containing bimerallic silver and gold nanoparticles
Mailu, Stephen Nzioki (University of the Western Cape, 2010)Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental pollutants that have been shown to be teratogenic, mutagenic and carcinogenic and pose serious threats to the health of aquatic and human life. Several methods ... -
Electrochemical responses of novel preferentially oriented platinum (100) nanoalloys for ammonia and hydrazine catalysis
Mailu, Stephen Nzioki (University of the Western Cape, 2013)Ammonia has attracted attention as a possible fuel for direct fuel cells since it is easy to handle under low pressure, costs only slightly higher than methanol and can easily be cracked down into hydrogen and nitrogen. ...
