Electrochemical responses of novel preferentially oriented platinum (100) nanoalloys for ammonia and hydrazine catalysis
(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. ... -
Graphenated organic nanoparticles immunosensors for the detection of TB biomarkers
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) a disease second to HIV/AIDS is a global health problem that arises in two states; as an active state and as a latent state. Diagnosis of active TB is tedious and requires expensive procedures ... -
Polyacrylic acid and polyvinylpyrrolidone stabilised ternary nanoalloys of platinum group metals for the electrochemical production of hydrogen from ammonia
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)The electrochemical oxidation of ammonia has attracted much attention as an efficient green method for application in direct ammonia fuel cells (DAFCs) and the production of high purity hydrogen. However, the insufficient ...
