EFFECT OF OXIDE DISPERSION ON ELECTRIC CONDUCTIVITY OF ROTARY SWAGED POWDER-BASED COPPER COMPOSITES
Kunčická, Lenka; Benč, Marek; Kačor, P.; Marek, M.
2024 - English
Copper is a very popular electro-conductive material, however, the mechanical properties of pure Cu are low. They can be typically improved by (micro)alloying, or via structure modifications introduced by optimized deformation and thermomechanical treatments. Designing a Cu-based composite, possibly strengthened by a dispersion of fine oxides, is another way how to favourably improve the strength properties of Cu. In this study, we performed mechanical alloying of a Cu powder with a powder of Al2O3 oxide, which is known to have strengthening effects on metallic materials. After mixing, we sealed the powder mixture into evacuated tubular Cu containers (i.e. cans). As for the consolidation procedure, we applied direct consolidation of the canned powders via the intensive plastic deformation method of rotary swaging, performed under warm conditions. Subsequently, we subjected the swaged conductors to measurements of electric conductivity and detailed structure observations. The results revealed that the applied swaging ratio was sufficient to fully consolidate the canned powders as the final conductor was unrecognizable from a cast alloy from the viewpoints of visual and structure assessment. In other words, the structure did not exhibit any voids or remnants of unconsolidated powder particles. The observed fine grains with homogeneous dispersion of Al2O3 oxide particles provided improvement of the mechanical properties, as proven by microhardness measurements. Moreover, the electric properties remained favourable.

Electrochemistry of Acetaminophen
Mikysek, T.; Ludvík, Jiří
2024 - English
The contribution is focused on electrochemical oxidation of acetaminophen mainly in non-aqueous media. The influence of various organic solvents as well as the pH effect is described herein. The redox properties of acetaminophen were studied by means of cyclic voltammetry, and rotating-disk voltammetry. We found that the protonation/deprotonation of acetaminophen acts as a ratedetermining step, where the stability of phenoxy radical intermediate plays an important role.

A New Approach to Determining the Drug Guaifenesin Using Voltammetric and Flow Injection Analysis
Kelíšková, P.; Matvieiev, O.; Sokolová, Romana; Janíková, L.; Behúl, M.; Šelešovská, R.
2024 - English
This study presents a new method for detecting guaifenesin (GFE) in pharmaceutical samples. We employed screen-printed sensors with a boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE) to develop and validate both voltammetric and flow amperometric methods. These approaches were effectively used to analyze model solutions, pharmaceutical preparations, and serum samples spiked with GFE, producing accurate results comparable to those obtained with HPLC/DAD analysis. The developed methods provide straightforward, sensitive, and selective means for determining GFE in various sample matrices, underscoring the potential of SP/BDDE in electrochemical analysis.

Optimization of Parameters Used in the Application of Elimination Voltammetry with Linear Scan
Navrátil, Tomáš; Trnková, L.; Hrdlička, Vojtěch; Li, X.
2024 - English
Elimination Voltammetry with Linear Scan (EVLS) is a well-established mathematical method that aids in understanding an analyzed electrochemical system. In almost 30 years since its derivation, it has become a “black-box” technique that is applied automatically (in most cases due to its incorporation into a voltammetric software) without thinking about its fundamentals. However, the choice of optimum parameters under which DC voltammetric data (from which elimination curves are calculated) is crucial. This contribution deals with revealing the optimum ratio of applied scan rates and their absolute values (i.e., times of recording) in dependence on the character of the investigated system (diffusion-controlled process, adsorption-controlled process, etc.).

Correlative probe electron microscopy analysis of plasma-treated gallium-doped zinc oxide nanorods
Rutherford, D.; Remeš, Zdeněk; Mičová, J.; Ukraintsev, E.; Rezek, B.
2024 - English
Correlative Probe Electron Microscopy (CPEM) was used to investigate the topographical and electronic emission properties of gallium-doped zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO:Ga) after low pressure hydrogen or oxygen plasma treatment. Simultaneous secondary electron (SE) and back-scattered electron (BSE) emission information from the same nanorods enabled true correlation with the topographical information obtained by atomic force microscopy (AFM). All nanorods were analyzed in-situ on the same substrate using the same experimental parameters which allowed for accurate comparison. ZnO:Ga nanorods displayed the largest SE emission intensity as well as the greatest BSE emission intensity. Hydrogen plasma treatment reduced both SE and BSE emission intensity, whereas oxygen plasma treatment only reduced SE emission. These effects may help elucidate various optical as well as biological interactions of ZnO:Ga nanorods.

Application of In situ TR Spectroelectrochemical Techniques in Determination of Redox Mechanism of Bioactive Compounds
Sokolová, Romana; Jiroušková, Eliška; Degano, I.; Wantulok, J.; Nycz, J.
2023 - English
The electron transfer reactions play an important role in many natural processes. Reactions such as \ndissociation, protonation, and reactions with water and other small molecules often occur in \nbiotransformation. The reaction schemes involving these chemical reactions coupled to the \nelectron transfer can be determined by cyclic voltammetry. Additionally, in \nsitu spectroelectrochemistry can efficiently contribute to the determination of oxidation or \nreduction mechanism. This technique provides information about the electroactive chromophore during \nthe redox process allowing to identification the first reaction intermediates. The final reaction \nproducts were identified by chromatographic techniques. This study represents a key role of TR \nspectroelectrochemistry in the determination of reaction intermediates in the case of \n1,10- phenanthroline derivative substituted by bioactive phenothiazine unit and \ndrug 3- fluorophenmetrazine (2-(3-fluorophenyl)-3-methylmorpholine, 3-FPM). Co pound 3-FPM\nhave recently appeared as the new psychoactive substance in the drug market.\n Keywords: IR spectroelectrochemistry; psychoactive substances; oxidation mechanism Available on request at various institutes of the ASCR

A polarizable reference electrode
Mareček, Vladimír
2023 - English
New concept of a reference electrode for electrochemical systems resolves a problem of a poor \npotential stability of refence electrodes based on the distribution of a strongly \nhydrophobic common cation between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (TTTES). The use of a \npolarizable metal electrode instead of a classical reference electrode is demonstrated in \n a modified conventional four-electrode cell with TTTES. A simple battery operated potentiostat \ncontrols the working electrode potential in a three-electrode configuration. The working metal \nelectrode then serves as a polarizable reference organic solvent electrode in a four-electrode \nsystem for the polarization of the water/organic solvent interface.\n\n Keywords: reference electrode; liquid/liquid interface; chloride extraction Available on request at various institutes of the ASCR

Determination of Selected Natural Psychoactive Substances in Organic Matrices at 3D Printed Electrodes
Choińska-Mlynarczyk, Marta; Šestáková, Ivana; Navrátil, Tomáš
2023 - English
Psilocybin and its derivative psilocin are popular psychoactive substances both as experimental\ntreatments in clinical trials and as illicit drugs. Their potential ability to influence the human\nbrain entails the need for a fast, inexpensive, selective, and sensitive method of their\ndetermination. The aim of our study was the development of new 3D-printed electrodes which\nfulfill these demands and are useful for medical, toxicological, and forensic purposes.\nSuccessful development allows determining in real matrices (human plasma and dried\nmushrooms) concentrations of the order of 1 μmol dm-3.\n Keywords: natural psychoactive substances; 3D-printed electrodes; psilocin; psilocybin Available on request at various institutes of the ASCR
