• Abstract

  Hydrogen can be considered an important alternative to clean energy and feedstocks in the modern world. However, the environmental benefits depend on its production process. Obtaining green hydrogen from the water electrolysis process (water splitting) is seen as a sustainable solution for the coming decades. Although this process seems quite simple, the water oxidation reaction is a majo…

  Strategies for improving the performance of Prussian blue-based catalysts in water oxidation reactions under mild conditions, AP.R

• Abstract

  Much effort has been made in the world to develop substitutes for fossil fuels. These fuels are the main responsible for greenhouse gas emissions and have potential long term exhaustion. Hence, strategies to obtain new green energy sources that are sustainable and meet global demands are one of the great challenges for the current scientific community and governments. A promising alternat…

  Study of the mechanism of water oxidation by catalysts operating at pH7 and its incorporation in electrodes printed in 3D, AP.R

• Abstract

  Hydrogen obtained through water splitting can be regarded as an alternative to fossil fuels. Despite its seeming simplicity, the water oxidation reaction is kinetically sluggish and thermodynamically unfavorable, and this is the limiting step of the H2 production process. Therefore, the presence of a catalyst is required to overcome the energetic barrier. The objective of this project is…

  Study of the electrochemical formation of vacancies in Prussian Blue-based catalysts and their activity during the Water Oxidation Reaction, BP.IC

• Abstract

  3D printing is an additive manufacturing technique where it is possible to print objects in three dimensions with details and adequate precision. 3D printing technology has brought great advances in science. The decentralization of the production process allows the design and manufacture of unique pieces ranging from biomedical applications, aircraft parts, functional devices to printed e…

  Development of state-of-the-art 3D printed electrodes for electrocatalytic studies, BP.MS

• Abstract

  The world energetic matrix was developed using fossil fuels as its main source. Although they are relatively inexpensive and there is a correlation between increased emission of greenhouses gases and global warming. In this scenario, it is necessary to replace the current energy matrix by technologies that are sustainable. The use of hydrogen (H2) has been highlighted on the world stage b…

• Abstract

  The use of additive manufacturing or 3D printing allows the development of simple and low-cost lab-made electrochemical devices, with the possibility of modulation in different shapes and miniaturization, leading to the construction of versatile and portable devices. In this sense, the use of conductive filaments has become extremely advantageous for the obtaining of electrochemical senso…

  Additive-manufactured (3D printed) electrochemical devices for the diagnosis of viral diseases, BE.EP.PD

• Abstract

  The electrochemical response of PB to molecular targets can be improved from the use of pentacyanidoferrates(II). These new generated structures are less crystalline than those obtained from traditional PB and have many defects. This set of characteristics allows improve the sensitivity and decrease the limits of detection and quantification.Thereby, the objective of the project is the mo…

  Development of screen-printed electrodes modified by Prussian blue and analogues for integrated analytical devices, BE.PQ

• Abstract

  Graphene has attracted immense interest to obtaining electrodes due to interesting characteristics such as high conductivity, chemical stability and low cost. However, graphene is considered a low selectivity material when it is used as electrode. One approach to solve this limitation is modifying of graphene's surface with compounds able to create the appropriate selectivity. The researc…
