The layer by layer (LbL) adsorption technique was used to deposit a new electrocatalytic material consisting of palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) and polyaniline (PANI). As far as PANI adsorption did not affect the reactivity of the Pd NPs attached in the former adsorption step, the LbL technique offered the way of increasing the reactive Pd surface within a three-dimensional nanocomposite structure. In situ conductance measurements have shown that depending on the concentration of the PANI solution, used for the LbL adsorption, composites with either PANI-like (dependent on potential and pH) or metal-like (non-dependent on potential and pH) conductive behaviour can be obtained. Metal-like Pd NPs–PANI nanocomposites were studied as electrocatalytic materials for hydrazine oxidation. A linear concentration dependence of the voltammetric peak currents was observed in the 40–800 μM hydrazine concentration range, the sensitivity increasing with the amount of adsorbed Pd NPs. Amperometric measurements showed linear response in the 10–300 μM range with sensitivity 0.5 μA/μmol cm−2 and a theoretical detection limit estimated to be 0.06 μM.
The structure and the electrochemical and spectral properties of two conductive electrochemically polymerized substituted bipyrroles 4,4′-methoxy-2,2′-bipyrrole and 4,4′-buthoxy-2,2′-bipyrrole were studied and compared. The polymers were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, FT-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and in situ conductivity measurements at different pH and redox state.
Multilayer nanocomposites from polyaniline (PANI) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were formed by layer-by-layer deposition. The formation of PANI–AuNPs multilayer structures was monitored by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Each deposited bilayer of PANI–AuNPs led to a monotonous and almost linear increase in both optical absorbance and the first current peak of PANI oxidation. The prepared multilayer nanocomposites were characterized by in situ conductivity measurements at different pH and potential and by transmission electron microscopy. Finally, chemosensitive properties of the new material based on the intrinsic affinity of gold nanoparticles were studied. Changes in the film resistance on exposure to vapors of mercury and sulfur-containing compounds were observed.
Die neue Landesregierung möchte Berlin beim Klimaschutz unter den Metropolen weltweit als Vorreiter etablieren. Die Erarbeitung der Machbarkeitsstudie „Klimaneutrales Berlin 2050“ im Auftrag der Senatsverwaltung für Stadtentwicklung und Umwelt soll auf diesem und für diesen Weg ein zentraler Baustein sein. Sie soll mögliche Entwicklungspfade für die Handlungsfelder Energiebereitstellung, Wohnen, Konsum, Wirtschaft und Mobilität aufzeigen sowie Maßnahmen und Leitprojekte für ein klimafreundliches Berlin vorschlagen. Koordiniert wird das Projekt vom Potsdamer Institut für Klimafolgenforschung (PIK). Der Anhang soll vor allem einen Kurzüberblick über die zur Erreichung des Klimaneutralitäts-Ziel vorgeschlagenen Maßnahmen geben.
