Akzeptorsubstituierte Oligothiophene und Fluorene für die Anwendung in organischen SolarzellenWrackmeyer, Marion Sofia 08 July 2011 (has links)
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden Thiophenoligomere nach dem Konzept Akzeptor – Donator – Akzeptor (A-D-A) und Donator – Akzeptor – Donator (D-A-D) synthetisiert und umfassend charakterisiert. Oligothiophene unterschiedlicher Kettenlänge stellen dabei den Donatoranteil des Moleküls dar, während 2,2-Dicyanovinyle (DCV), 1,3,2-2H-Dioxaborine (DOB), 2,1,3-Benzothiadiazole (BTDA) die Akzeptorstruktur im Molekül repräsentieren.
Diese Materialien sollen als Absorber in der intrinsischen Schicht von organischen Solarzellen (OSC) eingesetzt werden. Zusätzliche Untersuchungen an DOB-substituierten Fluorenen, die als Elektronentransportmaterialien in der n-Schicht von OSC Anwendung finden sollten, erwiesen sich in diesem Fall nicht als vielversprechend. Alle untersuchten Verbindungen wurden, abhängig von ihrer Löslichkeit bzw. Verdampfbarkeit im Vakuum, durch Absorption in Lösung und im dünnen Film, durch Cyclovoltammetrie (CV) und durch DFT-Rechnung charakterisiert. Die thermische Stabilität wurde durch TG/DTA-Messungen untersucht. Die Ladungsträgerbeweglichkeit der DCV-Verbindungen wurde in organischen Feldeffekttransistoren untersucht, sowie Solarzellen mit verschiedenen Schichtdicken der Quinquethiophenverbindung DCV2-5T als Donatormaterial der intrinsischen Schicht angefertigt. Eine gezielte Modifikation der Verbindungen durch Wahl des Akzeptors und die Länge des aromatischen Systems ermöglichte die Synthese von Molekülen mit abstimmbaren Eigenschaften. Eine bathochrome Verschiebung des Absorptionsmaximums kann durch eine Vergrößerung des π-Systems erreicht werden. CV-Messungen und DFT-Rechnungen zeigen, dass E(LUMO) maßgeblich vom Akzeptor bestimmt wird, während E(HOMO) mehr durch den Donatorteil des Moleküls beeinflusst wird. Diese Eigenschaften sind unabhängig vom Aufbau (A-D-A oder D-A-D) der Verbindungen. Bezüglich der thermischen Stabilität sind die D-A-D – Verbindungen gegenüber den A-D-A – Verbindungen zu favorisieren. Ein weiterer wichtiger Schlüsselpunkt der Arbeit ist die Erkenntnis, dass die bisher verwendeten Alkylketten am Rückgrat des Oligothiophens die Löcherbeweglichkeit der Verbindungen stark herabsetzen. Zwei Solarzellen in einer m-i-p– Anordnung (Metall – intrinsisch – p-dotiert) erreichen mit dem DCV2-5T (Schichtdicke 6 bzw. 10 nm) als Donatormaterial eine Effizienz von 2.8 %. Die Zellen zeichnen sich durch einen hohen Füllfaktor (bis zu 58 %) aus und erreichen eine Leerlaufspannung von bis zu 1.03 V. Die Interpretation der J-V-Kennlinien führt zu der Annahme, dass die Exzitonendiffusionslänge kürzer als 10 nm ist, weswegen es bei einer höheren Schichtdicke des Thiophens zu einer Rekombination der erzeugten Exzitonen kommt.:Abstract 1

Versicherung 183 / The present thesis deals with thiophene oligomers according to the concept acceptor-donor-acceptor (A-D-A) or donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D). Thiophenes represent the donor-part of the molecule whereas the acceptor-part can either be 2,2-dicyanovinyle (DCV), 1,3,2-2H-dioxaborine (DOB) or 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BTDA). These materials are supposed to work as absorbers in the intrinsic layer of an organic small molecular solar cell (OSC). Additional studies on substituted fluorenes, however, known to work as electron transport material in the n-layer of OSC, have not proved promising in this case. Depending on their solubility in organic solvents or their suitability for vacuum sublimation, all compounds were characterised by absorption measurements in solution and thin film, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and DFT-calculations. The thermal stability was determined by thermal analysis. Charge carrier mobility measurements using organic field effect transistors were applied to investigate the DCV-compounds. The quinquethiophene DCV2-5T was used in varying thicknesses as a donor material in the intrinsic absorbing layer of an OSC. Systematic variation of the compounds by applying different accepting groups and/or modifying the lengths of the aromatic systems permitted the synthesis of molecules with tunable properties. A bathochromic shift of the absorption maximum can be achieved by increasing the number of thiophene units. CV measurements and DFT calculations reveal a dependency of E(LUMO) on the accepting group whereas E(HOMO) is more influenced by the donor part of the molecule. These properties are independent from the concept A-D-A or D-A-D. Concerning thermal stability, D-A-D compounds seem to be more stable than A-D-A materials. Another important point is the knowledge that alkyl chains used so far at the backbone of the oligothiophene chain significantly decrease the hole mobility. Two OSCs arranged in an m-i-p-stack (metal – intrinsic – p-doped) with the quinquethiophene DCV2-5T (layer thickness 6 and 10 nm) both reach an efficiency of 2.8 %. They show a high fillfactor (up to 58 %) and reach an open circuit voltage of 1.03 V. Interpretation of the other parameters leads to the assumption that the exciton diffusion length of the molecule is shorter than 10 nm. This results in a recombination of the excitons in the cell with the thicker layer of DCV2-5T.:Abstract 1

Conjugated Polymer Brushes (Poly(3-hexylthiophene) brushes): new electro- and photo-active molecular architecturesKhanduyeva, Natalya 16 January 2009 (has links)
The aim of the present work was to screen the main methods for the synthesis of conjugated polymers for their suitability in the preparation of conductive polymer brushes. The main focus was put on the grafting of intrinsically soluble substituted regioregular polyalkylthiophenes because of their excellent optoelectronic properties. The resulting polymer films were characterized and their optoelectrical properties studied. For the first time, a synthesis of conductive polymer brushes on solid substrates using “grafting-from” method was performed. The most important, from my opinion, finding of this work is that regioregular head-to-tail poly-3-alkylthiophenes – benchmark materials for organic electronics - can be now selectively grafted from appropriately-terminated surfaces to produce polymer brushes of otherwise soluble polymers - the architecture earlier accessible only in the case of non-conductive polymers. In particular, we developed a new method to grow P3ATs via Kumada Catalyst Transfer Polymerization (KCTP) of 2-bromo-5-chloromagnesio-3-alkylthiophene. Exposure of the initiator layers to monomer solutions leads to selective chain-growth polycondensation of the monomers from the surface, resulting into P3AT brushes in a very economical way. The grafting process was investigated in detail and the structure of the resulting composite films was elucidated using several methods. The obtained data suggests that the grafting process occurs not only at the poly(4-bromstyrene) (PS-Br)/polymerization solution interface, but also deeply inside the swollen PS-Br films, penetrable for the catalyst and for the monomer The grafting process was investigated in detail and the structure of the resulting composite film was elucidated using ellipsometry, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), and Conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM). The obtained data suggests that the grafting process occurs not only at the poly(4-bromostyrene), PS-Br/polymerization solution interface, but also deeply inside the swollen PS-Br film, which is penetrable for the catalyst and the monomer. The process results in an interpenetrated PS-Br/P3HT network, in which relatively short poly(3-hexylthiophene), P3HT grafts emanate from long, cross-linked PS-Br chains. A further method investigated during our work was to covalently graft regioirregular P3HT to substrates modified by macromolecular anchors using oxidative polymerization of 3HT with FeCl3. P3HT layers with variable thicknesses from 30 nm up to 200 nm were produced using two steps of polymerization reaction. The P3HT obtained by oxidative polymerization had always an irregular structure, which was a result of the starting monomer being asymmetric, which is undesired for electronic applications. The third method for the production of conductive polymer brushes was to graft regioregular poly(3,3''-dioctyl-[2,2';5',2'']terthiophene) (PDOTT) by electrochemical oxidative polycondensation of symmetrically substituted 3,3''-dioctyl-[2,2';5',2'']terthiophene (DOTT). A modification of the supporting ITO electrode by the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of compounds having polymerizable head-groups with properly adjusted oxidative potentials was found to be essential to achieve a covalent attachment of PDOTT chains. The polymer films produced show solvatochromism and electrochromism, as well as the previous two methods. After polymerization, the next step towards building organic electronic devices is applying the methods obtained in nano- and microscale production. Block copolymers constitute an attractive option for such surface-engineering, due to their ability to form a variety of nanoscale ordered phase-separated structures. However, block copolymers containing conjugated blocks are less abundant compared to their non-conjugated counterparts. Additionally, their phase behaviour at surfaces is not always predictable. We demonstrated in this work, how surface structures of non-conductive block copolymers, such as P4VP-b-PS-I, can be converted into (semi)conductive P4VP-b-PS-graft-P3HT chains via a surface-initiated polymerization of P3HT (Kumada Catalyst Transfer Polymerization (KCTP) from reactive surface-grafted block copolymers. This proves that our method is applicable to develop structured brushes of conductive polymers. We believe that it can be further exploited for novel, stimuli-responsive materials, for the construction of sensors, or for building various opto-electronic devices. The methods developed here can in principle be adapted for the preparation of any conductive block copolymers and conductive polymers, including other interesting architectures of conductive polymers, such as block copolymers, cylindrical brushes, star-like polymers, etc. To this end, one needs to synthesize properly-designed and multi-functional Ni-initiators before performing the polycondensation.

Voltametrické stanovení dinitronaftalenů pomocí krystalové stříbrné amalgámové elektrody / Voltammetric Determination of Dinitronaphthalenes Using Single Crystal Silver Amalgam ElectrodeTvrdíková, Jana January 2011 (has links)
Voltammetric methods for determination of 1,3-dinitronaphthalene (1,3-DNN), 1,5-dinitronaphthalene (1,5-DNN) and 1,8-dinitronaphthalene (1,8-DNN) using DC voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at novel single crystal silver amalgam electrode (CAgAE) were developed in this work. Developed methods may be used for determination of 1,3-DNN within a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 1 - 100 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 1 μmol.L-1 by DPV; 1,5-DNN wihin a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 1 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 1 μmol.L-1 by DPV and 1,8-DNN within a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 0,3 - 1 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 0,3 μmol.L-1 by DPV. An attepmt to decrease LoQ by adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetry was not successful. Process of electrochemical reduction of selected dinitronaphthalenes on the working electrode was also studied by cyclic voltammetry. This work verified the use of CAgAE as alternative electrode material to mercury electrodes for determination of electrochemically reducible organic compounds in aqueous-methanolic media. Small dimensions of the CAgAE are the main advantages which predetermine its use in voltammetric microvolume batch analysis and amperometric detection in...

Application of electrodes with redox mechanisms for the desalination of water / Applicering av elektroder med redoxmekanismer för avsaltning av vattenMoreno Cerezo, Pablo January 2023 (has links)
Capacitive deionization is a promising technology for purification and desalination of brackish water with great advantages over current technologies due to its low operating cost and high-water recovery ratio. Most of the system studied relies on the adsorption/desorption capacity of activated carbon electrodes due to its high surface area. However, its specific adsorption capacity is limited since the adsorption is predominantly on the surface of the electrodes. In this thesis we propose the use of polyaniline as a chloride-ion adsorption material. Polyaniline is a redox polymer able to accommodate anions in several of its three states when subjected to an external voltage. To this end, we synthesized polyaniline by electrodeposition technique and its electrochemical behavior was studied. A hybrid CDI system was assembled, using PANI as anode material and activated carbon cloth as cathode, showing outstanding adsorption of 37.26 mg/g Cl at current densities of 250 A/g. The energy consumption of this system was of 0.4979 kWh/m3. Its stability was evaluated over 50 cycles with negligible capacity loss. Along with its use in a CDI system, the aim of this thesis was to understand the mechanisms of operation of this material, by means of its physical and electrochemical characterization, as well as its efficiency and stability through the use of this material in capacitive deionization cells. / Kapacitiv avjonisering är en lovande teknik för rening och avsaltning av bräckt vatten med stora fördelar jämfört med nuvarande teknik på grund av dess låga driftskostnader och höga vattenåtervinningsgrad. De flesta av de studerade systemen bygger på adsorptions/desorptionskapaciteten hos elektroder av aktivt kol på grund av dess stora yta. Dess specifika adsorptionskapacitet är dock begränsad eftersom adsorptionen huvudsakligen sker på elektrodernas yta. I den här avhandlingen föreslår vi att polyanilin används som adsorptionsmaterial för kloridjoner. Polyanilin är en redoxpolymer som kan ta emot anjoner i flera av sina tre tillstånd när den utsätts för en extern spänning. För detta ändamål syntetiserade vi polyanilin genom elektrodepositionsteknik och dess elektrokemiska beteende studerades. Ett hybrid CDI-system monterades med PANI som anodmaterial och aktiverad kolduk som katod, vilket visade en enastående adsorption av 37,26 mg/g Cl vid en strömtäthet på 250 A/g. Energiförbrukningen för detta system var 0,4979 kWh/m3. Systemets stabilitet utvärderades över 50 cykler med försumbar kapacitetsförlust. Förutom användningen i ett CDI-system var syftet med denna avhandling att förstå detta materials funktionsmekanismer genom fysisk och elektrokemisk karakterisering samt dess effektivitet och stabilitet genom användning av detta material i kapacitiva avjoniseringsceller.

Modification électrochimique de l'interface liquide - liquide avec de la silice mésoporeuse / Electrochemical modification of the liquid - liquid interface with mesoporous silicaPoltorak, Lukasz 25 September 2015 (has links)
Ce travail combine l'électrochimie à l'interface liquide - liquide avec le procédé sol - gel pour la modification interfaciale avec de la silice mésoporeuse. Dans la première partie de ce travail, l’interface liquide – liquide macroscopique a été utilisée pour séparer la solution aqueuse de l'espèce de précurseur de silice hydrolysées (tétraéthoxysilane (TEOS)) de l'agent tensioactif cationique (cethyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) qui a agi comme un template et a été dissous dans le dichloroéthane. Le dépôt de matériau de silice a été déclenchée par le transfert du CTA+ à partir de la phase organique vers la phase aqueuse. CTA+ qui a transféré à la phase aqueuse a catalysé la réaction de condensation de la silice sur l’interface liquide – liquide. Le dépôt de silice à des interfaces liquide – liquide miniaturisées était la deuxième partie de ce travail. Les dépôts stables sur le côté de l'interface ont été synthétisés in situ par voie électrochimique. La stabilité mécanique des dépôts de silice permis un traitement thermique de la silice. Basé sur les techniques d’imagerie (par exemple SEM) il a été constaté que les dépôts forment des hémisphères pour des temps plus long. La réaction interfaciale a également été suivie in situ par spectroscopie Raman confocale. Caractéristiques moléculaires de l'interface ont été modifiées de manière spectaculaire une fois les espèces CTA+ ont été transférés à la phase aqueuse. Les interfaces liquide – liquide miniaturisés et modifiés ont également été évaluée avec le transfert voltampérométrique / This work combines the electrochemistry at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) with the Sol – Gel process of silica leading to an interfacial modification with mesoporous silica using soft template. In the first part of this work the macroscopic liquid – liquid interface was employed to separate the aqueous solution of the hydrolyzed silica precursor species (tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)) from the cationic surfactant (cethyltrimethylammonium (CTA+)) dissolved in the dichloroethane. The silica material deposition was controlled by the electrochemical CTA+ transfer from the organic to the aqueous phase. Template transferred to the aqueous phase catalyzed the condensation reaction and self-assembly resulting in silica deposition at the interface. Silica deposition at the miniaturized ITIES (membranes supporting array of micrometer in diameter pores were used in this regard) was the second part of this work. Silica interfacial synthesis performed in situ resulted in stable deposits growing on the aqueous side of the interface. Mechanical stability of the supported silica deposits allowed further processing – silica material was cured. Based on imaginary techniques (e.g. SEM) it was found that deposits forms hemispheres for longer experimental time scales. Interfacial reaction was also followed with in situ confocal Raman spectroscopy. Molecular characteristics of the interface were changed dramatically once CTA+ species were transferred to the aqueous phase. Array of microITIES modified with silica was also assessed by ion transfer voltammetry

Study of the oxygen reduction on perovskite-type oxides in alkaline media / Etude de la réduction d'oxygène sur les oxydes de type pérovskite en milieu alcalinPoux, Tiphaine 27 January 2014 (has links)
La cinétique lente de la réduction de l’oxygène (ORR) est en grande partie responsable de la perte d’énergie de nombreux systèmes de conversion tels que les piles à combustible. Parmi les possibles catalyseurs de l’ORR, les oxydes de type pérovskite sont des candidats prometteurs en milieu alcalin. La présente thèse est consacrée à l’étude de l’activité, du mécanisme et de la stabilité de pérovskites à base de Co et Mn pour l’ORR. Grâce aux techniques d’électrode tournante à disque et disque-anneau (R(R)DE), les études de l’ORR et des transformations d’HO2- sur les couches minces de pérovskite/carbone dans une solution de NaOH ont montré qu’O2 est réduit en OH- via un mécanisme « en série » avec formation d’HO2- intermédiaire. Pour des quantités d’oxyde suffisantes, HO2- est ensuite réduit, ce qui résulte en un mécanisme apparent de 4 électrons. Dans ces électrodes, le carbone joue un double rôle. Il augmente l’activité électrocatalytique en améliorant le contact électrique et il est impliqué dans le mécanisme de l’ORR en catalysant la réduction d’O2 en HO2-, surtout pour les pérovskites à base de cobalt qui sont considérablement moins actives que celles à base de Mn. Néanmoins, l’électrocatalyse de l’ORR semble dégrader les sites actifs des pérovskites. / The sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is largely responsible for the energy losses in energy conversion systems such as fuel cells. Among possible inexpensive catalysts for the ORR, perovskite oxides are promising electrocatalysts in alkaline media. The present thesis is devoted to the investigation of the ORR activity, mechanism and stability of some Co and Mn-based perovskites. The rotating (ring) disk electrode (R(R)DE) studies of the ORR and the HO2- transformations on perovskite/carbon thin layers in NaOH electrolyte prove that O2 is reduced to OH- via a “series” pathway with the HO2- intermediate. For high oxide loadings, the formed HO2- species are further reduced to give a global 4 electron pathway. In these electrodes, carbon plays a dual role. It increases the electrocatalytic activity by improving the electrical contact and it is involved in the ORR mechanism by catalyzing the reduction of O2 into HO2-, especially for Co-based perovskites which display lower reaction rates than Mn-based perovskites.

Voltametrijske metode zasnovane na primeni jednostavnih i savremenih elektroda/senzora na bazi ugljeničnih materijala za određivanje vodonik-peroksida u odabranim uzorcima / Voltammetric methods based on the application of simple and contemporary carbonaceousmaterials-based electrodes/sensors for the determination of hydrogen-peroxide in the selected samplesAnojčić Jasmina 22 November 2018 (has links)
<p>Cilj ove doktorske disertacije je bio razvoj brzih i pouzdanih voltametrijskih metoda zasnovanih na primeni jednostavnih i savremenih elektroda/senzora na bazi ugljeničnih materijala (ugljenične paste napravljene od grafitnog praha i parafinskog ulja i štampanih ugljeničnih elektroda) za određivanje H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>u odabranim složenim model i realnim uzorcima. U tu svrhu, ispitana je primenljivost različitih radnih elektroda. Amperometrijska metoda zasnovana na elektrodi od ugljenične paste (CPE) zapreminski modifikovane sa 5% (m:m) MnO2 je, pri optimizovanim uslovima i pri radnom potencijalu od 0,40 V u odnosu na zasićenu kalomelovu elektrodu (ZKE) u fosfatnom puferu pH 7,50 kao pomoćnom elektrolitu, omogućila kvantifikaciju H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u opsegu koncentracija od 1,4 do 65 µg mL -1 sa relativnom standardnom devijacijom (RSD) manjom od 10%. Ova metoda je primenjena za određivanje sadržaja H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>u uzorcima podzemne vode iz centralnog Banata (Pokrajina Vojvodina, Srbija) tretirane Fentonovim (Fe<sup> 2+</sup> i H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> ) i Fentonu-sličnim (Fe <sup>3+</sup> i H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> ) reagensima u cilju uklanjanja prirodnih organskih materija (POM) pri čemu su korišćene različite početne koncentracije gvožđa i različiti odnosi molarnih koncentracija gvožđa i H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> . Utvrđeno je da oksidaciono stanje gvožđe (Fe<sup> 2+</sup> ili Fe <sup>3+</sup>) i molarni odnos jona Fe i H<sub> 2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> utiču na stepen potrošnje/razgradnje H<sub> 2</sub>O<sub>2</sub><br />u podzemnoj vodi sa visokim sadržajem POM. Takođe, u slučaju Fentonu-sličnog procesa, za sve početne koncentracije Fe <sup>3+</sup> i H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 ,</sub> signifikantna količina H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>ostaje neiskorišćena, što ukazuje na nižu efikasnost ovakvog sistema u poređenju sa Fentonovim procesom.Štampana ugljenična elektroda (SPCE) zapreminski modifikovana sa MnO 2 kao medijatorom je primenjena za određivanje sadržaja H<sub> 2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u toku Fentonovog (Fe <sup>2+</sup> , H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> ) i vidljivom svetlošću potpomognutog foto-Fentonovog (Fe<sup> 2+ </sup>, H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>, hν) procesa uklanjanja neonikotinoidnog insekticida acetamiprida (ACT). Pri optimizovanim uslovima (radni potencijal 0,40 V u odnosu na ZKE, fosfatni pufer pH 7,50 kao pomoćni elektrolit) amperometrijskog određivanja H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> , postignuta je linearnost u opsegu koncentracija 0,01–1,24 mmol L-1(0,34– 42,2 µg mL -1<br />) i vrednost RSD nije prelazila 4,2%. U ispitivanimuzorcima (nakon odgovarajućeg<br />podešavanja pH vrednosti od 2,8 do 7,5 odmah nakon uzorkovanja radi stopiranja ili maksimalnog usporavanja procesa oksidacije, filtriranja, zamrzavanja i odmrzavanja neposredno pre merenja) sadržaj H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> je određen metodom standardnog dodatka analiziranjem odgovarajućih amperometrijskih krivi. Paralelna HPLC-DAD merenja su vršena u cilju praćenja koncentracije/uklanjanja ACT. U slučaju foto-Fentonovog procesa (početne koncentracije 0,31; 2,0 i 3,0 mmol L -1 (70,0; 111,7 i 102,1 µg mL -1 ) za ACT, Fe<br /><sup>2+</sup> i H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>, redom) nakon 10 min H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>je izreagovao, a može se smatrati da je ACT uklonjen nakon 5 min. U toku Fentonovog procesa ACT je uklonjen nakon 20 min tretmana i oko 10% početne koncentracije H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> je ostalo u sistemu<br />neiskorišćeno.CPE je površinski modifikovane kompozitom na bazi nanočestica Pt (< 5 nm) i grafitizovanog ugljenika (Pt-C, 10% Pt na Vulkanu XC72) etodom nanošenja kapi. Nemodifikovana CPE i modifikovana (Pt-C/CPE) su okarakterisane primenom SEM/EDS i CV merenja. Pt-C/CPE je pokazala izuzetne elektrokatalitičke osobine u pogledu elektrohemijskeredoks reakcije H<br /><sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u poređenju sa nemodifikovanom CPE u fosfatnom puferu (0,1 mol L -1 ;<br />pH 7,50), a takođe i u acetatnom puferu (0,1 mol L -1 ; pH 4,50) kao pomoćnim elektrolitima. Prilikom amperometrijskog određivanja H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> primenom Pt-C/CPE u model sistemima, zadovoljavajuća linearnost je postignuta u koncentracionom opseguH<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>od 0,15 do 1,45 µg mL -1 ,dok su vrednosti GO iznosile 0,06 µg mL -1 (pH 7,50, radni potencijal 0,20 V) i 0,10 µg mL -1 (pH<br />4,50, radni potencijal 0,50 V). Optimizovane analitičke metode su primenjene za određivanje sadržaja H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u komercijalno dostupnim proizvodima za ličnu negu: rastvoru za dezinfekciju (pH 7,50) i rastvoru za čišćenje kontaktnih sočiva (pH 4,50). Amperometrijski dobijeni rezultati su u dobrom slaganju sa rezultatima dobijenim primenom tradicionalne spektrofotometrijske metode bazirane na titanijum-sulfatu kao reagensu sa određenim koncentracijama 2,91% i 2,94% za<br />dezinfekcioni rastvor i 3,04% i 3,17% za rastvor zakontaktna sočiva, redom. RSD je bila manja od 2%. Postignuti rezultati su u dobrom slaganju sa sadržajem H<br /><sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>deklarisanim od strane proizvođača (3%) u oba ispitivana uzorka. Pt-C/CPE je takođe testirana za praćenje koncentracije H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u rastvoru za kontaktna sočiva u toku procesa njegove neutralizacije/razgradnje. Nakon 6 h procesa neutralizacije, 24,68 µg mL -1 je bila određena koncentracija H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 ,</sub> što je ispod dozvoljene<br />H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>koncentracije u rastvoru za kontaktna sočiva imajući u vidu granicu koja izaziva iritaciju oka. CPE je površinski modifikovana višezidnim ugljeničnim nanocevima (MWCNT) i kompozitima MnO 2 -MWCNT ili Pt-MWCNT metodom nanošenja kapi radi pripreme jednostavnih, osetljivih i pouzdanih voltametrijskih senzora za određivanje H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>u odabranom uzorku. Rezultati SEM/EDS analize kompozitnih materijala su potvrdili da su medijatori, čestice MnO 2 i Pt, nasumično raspoređeni na površini MWCNT i zastupljeni sa blizu 5% (m:m) u kompozitu izraženo<br />preko Mn i Pt. CV merenja su vršena sa pripremljenim radnim elektrodama u acetatnom (pH 4,50), fosfatnom (pH 7,50) i boratnom (pH 9,18) puferu kako bi se okarakterisalo osnovno elektrohemijsko ponašanje H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>i odabrali pogodni radni potencijali za amperometrijsko određivanje ovog ciljnog analita. Pt- WCNT/CPE je primenljiva za rad kako u fosfatnom puferu pH 7,50 tako i u acetatnom puferu pH 4,50 V kako pri negativnim tako i pri pozitivnim radnim<br />potencijalima, pri čemu su vrednosti RSD uglavnom ispod 2,5%. U slučaju MnO 2<br />-MWCNT/CPE, na potencijalu 0,30 V i višim vrednostima, oksidacioni signali H<br /><sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> su signifikantni u blago alkalnoj sredini (pH 7,50), pri pH 4,50 ova elektroda pokazuje nezadovoljavajuće ponašanje, dok pri pH 9,18 ima prihvatljive performanse. Granice određivanja (GO) su bile u oblasti µg mL -1 . H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> je određen u spajkovanom uzorku mleka metodom standardnog dodatka nakon odgovarajuće pripreme uzorka (pH podešavanje i centrifugiranje) i primenom optimizovane amperometrijske procedure (acetatni pufer pH 4,50, radni potencijal-0,75 V) koristeći Pt-MWCNT/CPE kao radnu elektrodu. RSD za tri ponovljena merenja je iznosila 2,5%, dok je prinos metode bio nešto veći od 71%.<br />Kompozitni materijali koji se sastoje od MWCNT i čestica na bazi Pd (Pd-MWCNT) ili Pt (Pt-MWCNT) su primenjeni za pripremu zapreminski modifikovanih SPCE (Pd-MWCNT-SPCE i Pt-MWCNT-SPCE) i površinski modifikovane SPCE (Pd-MWCNT/SPCE). Ove elektrode, kao i nemodifikovana SPCE i MWCNT-SPCE, su okarakterisane primenom CV i amperometrije u fosfatnom puferu pH 7,50 radi određivanja H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> . Pd-MWCNT-SPCE i Pd-MWCNT/SPCE su se pokazale pogodnim za određivanje H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> na radnim potencijalima između -0,50 i 0,50 V, a PtMWCNT-SPCE na ispitivanim radnim potencijalima od -0,80 do 0,70 V. Ove elektrode su zatim modifikovane enzimom glukoza oksidazom (GOx) metodom nanošenja kapi rastvora GOx i Nafion ® -a na njihovu površinu, pri čemu je optimizovana količina nanetog biofilma. GOx/PdMWCNT-SPCE je pokazala bolje analitičke performanse za određivanje glukoze u poređenju sa GOx/Pd- WCNT/SPCE. Kao optimalan radni potencijal GOx/Pd-MWCNT-SPCE je odabrana<br />vrednost potencijala -0,40 V u odnosu na ZKE, sa zadovoljavajućom linearnošću u ispitivanom opsegu koncentracija glukoze od 0,16 do 0,97 mmol L -1 (od 29,1 do 174 µg mL -1), dok je GO iznosila 0,14 mmol L -1 (25 µg mL<br />-1 ). Optimizovana metoda zasnovana na GOx/Pd-MWCNT-SPCE je uspešno primenjena za određivanje glukoze u uzorku livadskog meda. Dobijeni rezultati su u dobroj saglasnosti sa onima dobijenim primenom komercijalno dostupnog aparata za merenje glukoze. Pogodan radni potencijal za GOx/Pt-MWCNT-SPCE je bio -0,50 V u odnosu na ZKE, pri čemu je zadovoljavajuća linearnost postignuta u ispitivanom opsegu koncentracija glukoze od 65,8 do 260,6 µg mL -1 , sa GO 35 µg mL -1 . Optimizovana metoda zasnovana na GOx/Pt-MWCNT-SPCE je uspešno primenjena za određivanje glukoze u u uzorku belog grožđa i uzorku tableta (Traubenzucker-bonbons), pri čemu su dobijeni rezultati u dobroj saglasnosti sa rezultatima dobijenim primenom Accu-Chek aparata.<br />Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata može se zaključiti da su razvijene analitičke metode pre svega jednostavne, pouzdane i pogodne za dobijanje brzih informacija o sadržaju H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> u različitim tipovima uzoraka. Svakako odabir pogodne radne elektrode, kao i optimizacija eksperimentalnih uslova su ključni faktori za uspešno određivanje H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub></p> / null / <p>The aim of this doctoral dissertation was the development of fast and reliable voltammetric methods based on the application of simple and contemporary electrodes/sensors based on carbonaceous materials (carbon paste made of graphite powder and paraffin oil and screen printed carbon electrodes) for the determination of H <span id="cke_bm_571S" style="display: none;"> </span><sub>2</sub><span id="cke_bm_571E" style="display: none;"> </span>O<sub>2</sub> in the selected complex model and real samples.For this purpose, applicability of different working electrodes was investigated.The amperometric method based on carbon paste electrode (CPE) bulk- modified with 5% (m:m) MnO 2 , under optimized conditions, with a working potential of 0.40 V vs. the saturated calomel elect<span id="cke_bm_572E" style="display: none;"> </span>rode (SCE) and a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.50) as supporting electrolyte, enabled the quantitation of H <span id="cke_bm_577S" style="display: none;"> </span><sub>2</sub><span id="cke_bm_577E" style="display: none;"> </span>O<sub>2</sub>in the concentration interval from 1.4 to 65 µg mL −1 with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of less than 10%.

The unmodified CPE and the modified one (Pt-C/CPE) were characterized by EM/EDS and CV measurements.

Amperometry of H2O2 in the concentration range from 0.15 to 1.45 µg mL -1 with the Pt-C/CPE showed acceptable linearity, while the obtained values of LOQs were 0.06 µg mL -1 (pH 7.50, working potential 0.20 V) and 0.10 µg mL -1 (pH 4<span id="cke_bm_663E" style="display: none;"> </span>.50, working potential 0.50 V). The proposed analytical methods were applied to the determination of the H 2O2 content in commercially available personal care products; i.e., disinfection (pH 7.50) and contact lens cleaning solutions (pH 4.50). The obtained amperometric results are in good agreement with those measured by traditional titanium sulfatereagent based spectrophotometric method with determined concentrations as 2.91% and 2.94% for the disinfection product, and 3.04% and 3.17% for the contact lens solution, respectively.

The results of the SEM/<span id="cke_bm_688E" style="display: none;"> </span>EDS analysis of composite materials have confirmed that the mediators, MnO <sub>2</sub> and Pt articles, are randomly distributed on the surface of MWCNT and represent nearly 5% (m:m) of the composite expressed as Mn and Pt. CV measurements were performed with prepared electrodes in acetate (pH 4.50), phosphate (pH 7.50) and borate (pH 9.18) buffers to characterize the basic electrochemical behavior of H <span id="cke_bm_694S" style="display: none;"> </span><sub>2</sub><span id="cke_bm_694E" style="display: none;"> </span>O<sub>2</sub> and to select the working potentials suitable for amperometric determination of this target analyte. The Pt-MWCNT/CPE performs well in phosphate buffer pH .50 and acetate buffer solution pH 4.50 in the negative as well as in the positive polarization range with RSD mainly lower than 2.5%.

RSD for three repeated measurements was 2.5%, while the recovery of the method was a bit higher than 71%. The composite materials consisting of MWCNT and Pd (Pd-MWCNT) or Pt containing particles (Pt-WCNT) were applied to the preparation of bulk- modified SPCEs (Pd-MWCNTSPCE and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE) and surface modifiedSPCE (Pd- MWCNT/SPCE). These electrodes, as well as unmodified SPCE and MWCNT-SPCE, were characterized by CV and amperometry in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.50 for the H<span id="cke_bm_713S" style="display: none;"> </span><sub> 2</sub><span id="cke_bm_713E" style="display: none;"> </span>O<sub>2 </sub>determination. Pd-MWCNT-SPCE and PdMWCNT/SPCEare convenient for the etermination of H 2O2 at working potentials from -0.50 to 0.50 V, and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE at investigated working potentials in the range from -0.80 to 0.70 V. These electrodes were then modified with glucose oxidase (GOx) by drop coating a solution of GOxand Nafion ® on their surface, whereby the applied amount of biococktail was optimized. GOx/PdMWCNT-SPCE showed better analytical performance for glucose determination in comparison with GOx/Pd-MWCNT/SPCE. The optimal working potential for GOx/Pd-MWCNT- SPCE was -0.40 V vs. SCE and <span id="cke_bm_714E" style="display: none;"> </span>satisfactory linearity was obtained in the investigated glucose concentration range from 0.16 to 0.97 mmol L -1 (from 29.1 to 174 µg mL -1 ), hile the LOQ was 0.14 mmol L -1 (25 µg mL -1 ). The optimized method based on GOx/Pd-MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied to the determination of glucose in multifloral honey sample. The results are in a good agreement with those obtained by commercially available equipment for determination of glucose. Optimal working potential for GOx/Pt-MWCNT-SPCE was -0.50 V vs. SCE, and the satisfactory linearity was obtained in the investigated concentration range ofglucose from 65.8 to 260.6 µg mL -1 , with LOQ of 35 µg mL -1 . The optimized method based on GOx/Pt- MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied for determination of glucose in white grape and glucose tablets (Traubenzucker-bonbons) samples, whereby the obtained results were in a good agreement with the results obtained by Accu-Chek device. Based on the results, the developed analytical methods are first of all simple, reliable and suitable for obtaining fast information about the content of H <sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in different types of samples. Certainly the selection of a suitable working electrode, as well as the optimization of experimental conditions are key factors for the successful determination of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2 </sub>.</p>
