Nitric oxide is a potent bronchodilator and compounds capable of increasing its supply have demonstrated clinical interest in the treatment of obstructive airways diseases. This study evaluated and compared the mechanisms of relaxation of two nitric oxide donors, ruthenium complex [Ru(terpy)(bdq)NO+]3+ (TERPY) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) in healthy isolated trachea, Sham group, or experimental model of asthma induced by ovalbumin in rats, OVA group. The isolated trachea was sectioned into rings and contracted with carbachol in an organ chamber for studying relaxation. The relaxing effect of TERPY and SNP was evaluated at increasing concentrations from 10 nM to 100 μM. Thus, we verified the contribution of the different types of K+ channels, the importance of sGC/cGMP pathway, the inhibition of PDEs (for IBMX, amrinone, rolipram and dypiridamole), the influence of the extra and intracellular Ca2+ sources (for cyclopiazonic acid) and the influence of the store and voltage operated calcium channels. Besides inhibition of COX (diclofenac), antagonism of leukotriene receptor (montelukast) and superoxide anion scavenger (TIRON). Analyses were performed under light microscopy for evidence of inflammatory infiltration and bronchoditation by TERPY in slices bronchioles of asthmatic animals. The results verified that sensitization with ovalbumin led to intense inflammatory process and hyperresponsives to carbachol in compared Sham group. TERPY and SNP led to the relaxation of tracheal smooth muscle preparations in a dependent-concentration mode in both groups. However, the maximum effect induced by TERPY was higher than the effect of SNP in Sham and OVA groups. The relaxation mechanism of TERPY in boht groups showed differences. In Sham group, TERPY relaxation by the activation of Kv, Kir, KCa and KATP channels, cGMP-independent mechanisms and by reduction of calcium influx by blocking the store and voltage operated calcium channels. In OVA group, TERPY acts through activation K+ channels, NO/GCs/GMP way and blocking the store and voltage operated calcium channels. The relaxing effect induced by SNP in OVA group was dependent of NO/GCs/GMP pathway, Kv, KCa and BKCa channels and blocking the store and voltage operated calcium channels. However, the activation of the enzyme sGC seems to be reduced in inflamed smooth muscle, as well as the role of the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump. Diclofenac, montelukast and TIRON improved relaxation of the TERPY and SNP in OVA group. The TERPY is able to reverse the contraction of carbachol in asthmatic bronchioles. In conclusion, TERPY and SNP have their mechanisms of relaxation modified by the inflammatory process. However, this modification was not able to alter the pharmacological parameters potency and efficacy to TERPY. Since SNP has less efficacy effect in asthmatic tracheas. This may result from the lower participation of the enzyme sGC and reticular calcium pump, making TERPY a promising drug to reverse the narrowing of the airways.
O óxido nítrico é um potente broncodilatador e compostos capazes de aumentar a sua oferta têm demonstrado interesse clínico no tratamento das doenças obstrutivas das vias aéreas. Estee trabalho avaliou comparativamente os mecanismos de relaxamento de dois doadores de óxido nítrico, o complexo de rutênio [Ru(terpy)(bdq)NO+]3+ (TERPY) e o nitroprussiato de sódio (SNP) em traqueias isoladas de ratos saudáveis, grupo Sham, e com asma experimental induzida por ovalbumina, grupo OVA. As traqueias isoladas foram cortadas em anéis, montadas em banho para órgãos isolados e contraída com carbacol para estudo do relaxamento. O efeito relaxante do TERPY e do SNP foi avaliado em concentrações crescentes e cumulativas (10 nM a 100 μM). Foi verificada a participação dos diferentes tipos de canais de K+, a participação da via GCs/GMPc, inibição das PDEs (pelo IBMX, amrinona, rolipram e dipiridamol), a participação dos estoques internos de Ca2+ (pelo ácido ciclopiazônico), assim como a participação do influxo deste íon pelos canais de cálcio controlados por estoque e por voltagem, além da inibição da COX (pelo diclofenaco), do antagonismo dos receptores de leucotrienos (pelo montelucaste) e do sequestro dos íons superóxidos (pelo TIRON). Foram realizadas análises em microscopia de luz para comprovação da presença de infiltrado inflamatório e da broncodilatação exercida pelo TERPY em cortes de bronquíolos de animais asmáticos. Como resultados, verificou-se que a sensibilização com ovalbumina levou a um intenso processo inflamatório com migração celular e hiperreatividade ao carbacol. Evidenciou-se que o TERPY e o SNP relaxaram o músculo liso traqueal de forma concentração-dependente em ambos os grupos. Entretanto, o efeito máximo induzido pelo TERPY foi maior do que o do SNP tanto no grupo Sham quanto no OVA. O mecanismo de relaxamento do TERPY mostrou-se diferente entre os grupos. No grupo Sham, o TERPY exerce relaxamento por ativação dos canais Kv, Kir, KCa e KATP independentemente de GMPc e por redução do influxo de cálcio através do bloqueio dos canais de cálcio operados por voltagem e por estoque. No grupo OVA, o TERPY exerce seu efeito através da por ativação dos canais K+, via NO/GCs/GMP e redução do influxo de cálcio por bloqueio dos canais de cálcio operados por voltagem e operados por estoque. O efeito relaxante do SNP no grupo OVA ocorre através da ativação da via NO/GCs/GMPc, dos canais Kv, KCa e SKCa e por redução do influxo de cálcio pelos canais de cálcio operados por voltagem e operados por estoque. Entretanto, a ativação da enzima GCs parece estar reduzida em músculo liso inflamado, assim como o papel da bomba de cálcio do retículo sarcoplasmático. O diclofenaco, o montelucaste e o TIRON melhoraram o perfil de relaxamento tanto do TERPY quanto do SNP no grupo OVA. O TERPY é capaz de reverter a contração do carbacol em bronquíolos asmáticos. Em conclusão, tanto o SNP quanto o TERPY têm seus mecanismos de relaxamento modificados pelo processo inflamatório. Entretanto, esta modificação não foi capaz de alterar os parâmetros farmacológicos de potência e eficácia do TERPY. Já o SNP, tem menor eficácia em traqueias de ratos do grupo OVA e isso pode decorrer da menor participação da enzima GCs e da bomba de cálcio reticular, fazendo do TERPY uma droga promissora para reversão do estreitamento das vias aéreas.

Full textTiivistelmä Pakokaasupäästöissä olevat typen oksidit (NOx), hiilivedyt (HCs) ja hiilimonoksidi (CO) ovat haitallisia ihmisten terveydelle ja ympäristölle. Katalyysi on tehokas menetelmä vähentää näitä päästökomponentteja. Polttoaineet ja voiteluöljyt sisältävät epäpuhtauksia, jotka siirtyvät myös pakokaasuihin. Tästä johtuen pakokaasupäästöjen hallinnassa tarvitaan katalyyttimateriaaleja, joilla on hyvä vastustuskyky myrkyttymistä vastaan. Tavoitteena oli saada uutta tietoa kemiallisten epäpuhtauksien vaikutuksesta katalyyttien toimintaan. Biopolttoaineiden sisältämät mahdolliset epäpuhtaudet selvitettiin analysoimalla fossiilisen ja biopolttoaineen palamisessa muodostuvia partikkeleita ja vertaamalla niitä polttoaineiden hivenaineanalyysiin. Tutkimuksessa käytetyt zeoliitti (ZSM-5), cerium-zirkonium-sekaoksidi (CeZr) ja pii-zirkonium-oksidipohjaiset (SiZr) katalyytit käsiteltiin epäpuhtauksilla (kalium, natrium, fosfori ja rikki) kaasu- ja nestefaasissa. Tutkimuksessa käytettiin useita karakterisointitekniikoita, joiden avulla selvitettiin epäpuhtauksien vaikutuksia katalyyttien ominaisuuksiin. Katalyyttien toimintaa testattiin laboratoriomittakaavan kokeissa CO:n ja HC-yhdisteiden hapetuksessa sekä NOx:ien pelkistyksessä käyttäen ammoniakkia (NH3) tai vetyä (H2) pelkistimenä. Tulokset osoittavat, että CeZr-pohjaisten katalyyttien aktiivisuus NOx:ien pelkistyksessä oli hyvä käytettäessä pelkistimenä NH3:a ja kohtalainen käytettäessä vetyä. Rikki paransi CeZr-katalyyttien aktiivisuutta NOx:ien pelkistyksessä, mikä johtui kemiallisesti sitoutuneen hapen osuudesta katalyyttien pinnoilla. Vastaavasti hiilivetyjen ja CO:n hapetusreaktioissa rikki ei vaikuttanut SiZr-pohjaisten dieselhapetuskatalyyttien aktiivisuuteen. Sekä CeZr- ja SiZr-pohjaisia katalyytteja voidaan siten käyttää rikkiä sisältävien pakokaasujen puhdistuksessa. SiZr-pohjaisten katalyyttien aktiivisuus laski fosforin vuoksi. ZSM-5-pohjaiset katalyytit olivat vastustuskykyisiä kaliumille ja natriumille. Kestäviä katalyyttejä on siten kehitettävä, mikäli biopolttoaineiden sisältämien epäpuhtauksien poistaminen polttoaineista ei ole mahdollista

Full textO efeito vasorrelaxante de R(+)-pulegona foi estudado em ratos normotensos, utilizando duas abordagens metodológicas. Na avaliação in vivo, doses crescentes (1, 3, 10, 20 e 30 mg/Kg), foram administradas nos animais, via i.v. em bolus de maneira aleatória, posteriormente os parâmetros de pressão arterial média (PAM) e frequência cardíaca (FC) foram avaliados. Nesta situação a substância desencadeou um efeito hipotensor e bradicárdico dependente de dose. Na abordagem ex vivo, utilizou-se a aorta torácica destes animais e avaliou-se a atividade vasorrelaxante da substância. A administração de R(+)-pulegona desencadeou efeito vasorrelaxante, concentração dependente tanto em anéis com endotélio intacto quanto com este removido, porém a substância apresentou o valor do pD2 menor na presença do endotélio (-3,64 ± 0,06, n=5 vs -3,17 ± 0,034, n=6, respectivamente), sem nenhuma alteração no efeito máximo (98,2 ± 1,2%, n=5 vs 106,0 ± 8,1%, n=6), indicando que a substância atua desencadeando vasodilatação na aorta de maneira dependente e independente do endotélio vascular. Em anéis com endotélio intacto, a atividade vasorrelaxante de R(+)-pulegona não foi alterada na presença de diclofenaco e atropina, porém foi modificada por L-NAME (-3,00 ± 0,016, n=5), HDX (-3,07 ± 0,021, n=5), ODQ (-3,17 ± 0,03, n=5) e o vermelho de rutênio (-3,14 ± 0,04, n=5) todos vs controle: -3,64 ± 0,06, n=5. Estes resultados sugerem que a substância provavelmente está estimulando a produção de óxido nítrico (NO), via ativação dos canais TRP na célula endotelial. O efeito dependente do músculo liso vascular de R(+)-pulegona dá-se através da inibição da curva de cálcio de maneira dependente de concentração (Emáx: 10-4 M: 68,9 ± 3,81%; 3x10-4 M: 40,97 ± 8,05%; 10-3 M: 24,79 ± 5,04% e 3x10-3 M: 0,29 ± 0,33%), via canais para cálcio tipo L, pois na presença de NIF, ocorreu redução do efeito máximo (Emáx: 93,3 ± 1,7%, n= 6 vs controle Emáx: 106,8 ± 8,1%, n=6). Adicionalmente, pesquisou-se a participação dos canais para potássio e na presença de 4-AP ocorreu redução da resposta relaxante da substância indicando a participação dos canais para potássio sensíveis a voltagem (-2,93 ± 0,012, n=5 vs controle -3,17 ±0,034, n=6) e também sensíveis ao ATP, uma vez que, na presença de glibenclamida, a resposta relaxante para R(+)-pulegona também foi reduzida (-2,94 ± 0,012, n=5 vs -3,17 ± 0,03, n=6). Assim, para causar vasorrelaxamento em aorta torácica de ratos normotensos, R(+)-pulegona, estimula a produção de NO na célula endotelial, provavelmente por ativar o influxo de cálcio via canais TRP e o efeito independente do endotélio, é mediado pela inibição do influxo de cálcio, provavelmente através dos CaV e abertura dos canais para potássio (Kv e KATP).

Full textIn recent decades, the conversion of light alkanes to their corresponding olefins has been the subject of intense research, mainly driven by the increasing demand of propylene as an important petrochemical product. Oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) propane is a promising alternative way to propylene production, which it is presented as an exothermic reaction and not limited thermodynamically. Different supported or mixed oxides have been developed in order to increase the activity and selectivity to olefins. Alkali metals are important promoters, which provide improved selectivity to olefins due to reduction of acidity and increasing basicity of the catalyst surface. The purpose of the present study was to develop synthesis methods of vanadium oxide catalysts supported on alumina of the different crystalline phases and doped with sodium or potassium in order to evaluate them in catalytic tests of propane oxidative dehydrogenation. For in such a way, the following characterization techniques were used: N2 volumetry, X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and temperature programmed reduction (TPR). The properties acid and/or basic of supports and catalysts were evaluated by the isopropanol decomposition reaction.

Full textThis project determined the thermodynamic potentials for various reactions between reduced manganese (Mn+2), manganese oxide (MnO2(s)), chlorine dioxide (C102), and potassium permanganate (KMnO4). Based on these findings, laboratory analyses were performed to determine if these reactions would occur under simulated water treatment plant conditions. In addition, a speciation procedure was developed to quantify the various species of manganese and chlorine dioxide present in a single sample. The reactions and the speciation procedure were evaluated at TOC concentrations ranging from < 1.0 mg/L to 5.0 mg/L and at pH 6.0 and 8.0. The speciation procedure yielded a reliable measure of Mn+2, insoluble manganese, and Mn+7; however, the Mn+7 evaluation could be disrupted by the presence of free chlorine. The determination of C102 and C102- concentrations was also possible; however, the C102- concentration was subject to error.
The laboratory analyses revealed that C102 was unable to oxidize either Mn+2 or MnO2(s) to Mn+7 under any of the thermodynamically favored conditions. Both KMn04 and C102 selectively oxidized reduced organic material before reducing the concentration of Mn+2. When C102 and KMnO4 were added simultaneously, the ClO2 reacted preferentially with the reduced materials. Only after the C102 concentration was exhausted did the MnO- begin to oxidize the reduced species.

Resumo: Resumo: o óxido nítrico e os canais iônicos de potássio e cálcio são fundamentais no fenômeno de ereção peniana tanto em animais como em seres humanos. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o papel fisiológico e os aspectos hemodinâmicos do óxido nítrico (NO) e dos canais de potássio dependentes do adenosina de trifosfato (KATP)no fenômeno de ereção peniana em cães. No estudo foram utilizados quinze cães adultos, machos, anestesiados, com peso médio de 9.2 :t 0.7 kg. A ereção peniana foi induzida através do estímulo do nervo pélvico e as variações da pressão intracavernosa (IC) foram registradas por meio de um transdutor de pressão (PRC 21/3, Ugo Basile, Italy). No grupo I, a pressão IC basal foi de 12.8 :t 5.0 mmHg. O estímulo do nervo pélvico aumentou significativamente a pressão IC a 86.2 :t 11.4 mmHg (p<0.05), com latência de 8.8 :t 2.9 segundos(seg). O D-NAME, enantiômero inativo do L-NAME, não alterou a resposta evocada pelo estímulo nervoso (79.8:t 12.5 mmHg, latência de 7.2 :t 1.9 seg). Entretanto, o tratamento dos animais com a injeção intravenosa do inibidor da síntese de óxido nítrico o L-NAME ~ -nitro-L-arginina metil éster; 10 mg/kg) inibiu em 82 % o aumento da pressão IC induzida pelo estímulo nervoso (15.4 :t 5.0 mmHg, n = 5, P <0.05). A L-Arginine, e não D-Arginine reverteu parcialmente (48 %, P<0.05) o efeito inibitório induzido pelo L-NAME. Finalmente, a injeção intracavernosa de papaverina promoveu aumento da pressão IC para 116.0 :t 10.9 mmHg (P
Abstract: Objective: To define the physiologic role and hemodynamic features of nitric oxide (NO) and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent K+ (KATP)channel in canine penile erection. Material and Methods: Mongrel dogs were anesthetized, and penile erection was induced by electrical stimulation of the pelvic nerve. Changes in the intracavemous pressure (ICP) were measured with a transducer. Results: The basal ICP was 12.8 ::t 5.0 mmHg. Pelvic nerve stimulation (5 to 20 V, 5 to 15 Hz, for l-minute interval) significantly increased the ICP to 86.2 ::t 11.4 mmHg, (n = 5, P <0.05). Treatment with the NO synthase inhibitor L-NAME ~ -nitro-L-arginine methyl ester; 10 mglkg intravenously) abolished this increase (15.4 ::t 5.0 mmHg, n = 5, P <0.05). Intracavemous injection ofthe KATPchannel opener cromakalim (3 and 10 /lg) increased the ICP (103 ::t 14.4 mmHg and 106 ::t 12.1 mmHg, respectively, n=4). This response was abolished by the prior intracavemous injecton of the selective KATPchannel-specific blocker glybendamide (10 mg). Glibendamide did not affect the increase in ICP induced by electric stimulation of the pelvic nerve (88 ::t24.2 mmHg). Conclusions: Our results indicate that relaxation of canine cavemous smooth muscle and penile tumescence are mediated by NO. The failure of glybendamide to affect the increase in ICP induced by pelvic nerve stimulation suggest that ATP-dependente K+ channels probably do not play a physiologic role in canine penile erection

Vários efeitos do [óxido nítrico] devem-se à ativação de [guanilato ciclase] ou alteração do funcionamento de [canais de potássio]. O envolvimento destes mecanismos no efeito anti-proliferativo do NO foi investigado em duas linhagens de mastocitoma murinas, P815 e MCP-5. O NO (em forma de doadores SNAP 10-100 µM e GSNO 100-1000 µM) inibiu de maneira concentração e tempo dependente a [proliferação] de ambas as linhagens celulares, com efeito máximo em torno de 50%, induzindo uma interrupção do ciclo celular na fase de mitose. As células incubadas com o doador de NO por 4 ou 24 h tiveram a proliferação inibida da mesma forma, indicando que o efeito causado pelo NO é irreversível. Os bloqueadores de canais de K+, tetraetilamônio (TEA; bloqueador não-seletivo; 10-1000 µM); 4-aminopiridina (4-AP; bloqueador de canais sensíveis à voltagem; 1-100 µM) e as toxinas caribdotoxina, iberiotoxina e apamina (bloquedores de subtipos de canais de potássio dependentes de cálcio; 100 nM), reverteram completamente o efeito anti-proliferativo do NO. Entretanto, o bloqueador de canais de K+ ATP-dependentes (glibenclamida; GBN; 10-1000 µM) não alterou a inibição da proliferação induzida pelo NO. O efeito do NO não foi mimetizado pelo 8-Br-cGMP (um análogo permeante do cGMP), nem alterado por um inibidor seletivo da guanilato ciclase solúvel (ODQ; 1-10 µM). Drogas que interferem com o citoesqueleto não afetaram o efeito anti-proliferativo do NO. Conclui-se que o NO inibe a proliferação celular irreversivelmente por uma via dependente de canais de potássio, porém independente da atividade da enzima guanilato ciclase e do citoesqueleto.
Turczyniak, Sylwia. "Surface composition of cobalt catalysts for steam reforming of ethanol." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016STRAF031/document.
Full textThe aim of the thesis was determination the influence of the ethanol steam reforming (ESR) reaction conditions, catalyst’s dispersion and potassium promotion on a surface’s composition and understanding the influence of these changes on catalysts’ performance. Cobalt-based catalysts (unpromoted and promoted with potassium) with low- and high-dispersed ceria and zirconia supports were used. The changes of the surface state of catalysts during the ESR were studied by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, whereas the reaction products evolution was followed by mass spectrometer or gas chromatograph. Highly-dispersed ceria-supported catalyst was characterized under low pressure conditions (0.2–20 mbar) with the water/ethanol molar ratio equal to 3/1 (at 420ºC). The other tests were carried out over all catalysts under total pressure of 1 atm with 3/1, 9/1 and 12/1 molar ratios (at 420ºC). The water/ethanol ratio of 12/1 was chosen for studies of the surface state of all catalysts with time-on-stream. It was found that the ESR selectivity to gaseous products and carbon deposition is governed mainly by surface hydroxyl species concentration; in the promoted catalysts together with Kδ+–Osurfδ- surface sites

Avaliamos a relação entre o [óxido nítrico] (NO), a enzima guanilato ciclase solúvel e [canais de potássio] no estabelecimento da [hiporresponsividade] vascular à fenilefrina (Fen) durante o [choque séptico] em ratos. Os efeitos pressóricos da Fen são menores em ratos tratados com LPS 8 ou 24 horas antes do experimento. O pré-tratamento com inibidores da NO sintase (nitro-L-arginina metil éster ou aminoguanidina) preveniu a hiporresponsividade causada pelo LPS. Porém, quando administrado apenas uma vez, antes da Fen, o L-NAME reverteu a hiporresponsividade na 8a hora de endotoxemia, mas não na 24a hora. Por sua vez, o 1H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazolo-[4,3-a]-quinoxalin-1 (ODQ) reverteu a hiporresponsividade na 24a hora de endotoxemia, mas não na 8a hora. O [tetraetilamônio] normalizou os efeitos da Fen tanto 8 como 24 horas após o LPS. A imunoeletroforese para a isoforma induzida da NO sintase (iNOS) revelou que a expressão dessa enzima é alta na 8a hora após o LPS e quase indetectável na 24a hora de endotoxemia. O NO, oriundo da iNOS, é importante para iniciar o estado de hiporresponsividade à Fen, mas não para mantê-lo por longos períodos. O aparecimento e a manutenção da hiporresponsividade vascular parece depender da interação entre o NO, a guanilato ciclase e canais de potássio. Animais submetidos a cirurgia para ligadura e perfuração do ceco tiveram a duração dos efeitos vasodilatadores da [bradicinina] aumentada. Os bloqueadores de canais de potássio, tetraetilamônio, 4 aminopiridina e glibenclamida normalizaram as respostas para a BK. O aumento na responsividade à BK foi evitado pela aminoguanidina. A responsividade à BK é maior em animais sépticos e seus efeitos são mediados por receptores B2 da bradicinina, num processo dependente da produção de NO e da abertura de canais de potássio.

Full textThe aim of this thesis is to study the electrochemical properties of 2D materials used as electrode in batteries and supercapacitor. The first part starts with using reduced graphene oxide (rGO) aerogel as a negative electrode material for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). The influence of the nature of the electrolyte and the drying methods used were investigated in order to optimize the electrochemical performance of freeze-dried rGO in PIBs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to assess the performance of our rGO material in PIBs. rGO can deliver a high capacity of 267 mAh g-1 at C/3 rate together with 78% capacity retention during 100 cycles, combined with high rate capability (92 mAh g-1 at 6.7 C). This set of results makes rGO aerogel a promising electrode material for PIBs. Afterwards, we focused on molten salt method (MSM) to design materials with enhanced electrochemical properties for energy storage applications. With MSM, 2D K0.27MnO2·0.54H2O (KMO) and 1D CaV6O16·7H2O (CVO) have successfully prepared. KMO nanosheet has been used as cathode for aqueous Zn-ion batteries, with high specific capacities (288 mAh g-1) and long-term cyclability (91% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 10 C). Electrochemical quartz crystal admittance (EQCM) technique was firstly performed to confirm the consequent H3O+ and Zn2+ intercalation charge storage mechanism. Additionally, CVO was further used as cathode material in aqueous Ca-ion batteries. As a result, excellent electrochemical performance was achieved, with a capacity of 205 mA h g-1, long cycle life (>97% capacity retention after 200 cycles at 3C rate) and high rate performance (117 mAh g-1 at 12 C) during Ca-ion (de)intercalation reactions. Differently from the previous flash molten salt method achieved in air, we designed another molten salt method under argon atmosphere to prepare 2D metal carbides (MXene) materials such as Ti3C2 (M=Ti, X=C). By playing with the chemistry of the MAX precursor and the Lewis acid melt composition, we generalize this synthesis route to a wide chemical range of MAX precursors (A=Zn, Al, Si, Ga). The obtained MXene materials (termed as MS-MXenes) exhibits enhanced electrochemical performance in Li+ containing non-aqueous electrolyte, with a capacity of 205 mAh g-1 at 1.1 C, making these materials highly promising as negative electrodes for high power Li batteries or hybrid devices such as Li-ion capacitors. Besides APS, another etchant (FeCl3) has been used to dissolve Cu. Furthermore, high conductive ACN-based electrolyte has been applied to improve the power performance of multi-layered MS-MXene. To sum up, this method allows producing new types of MXene that are difficult or even impossible to be prepared by using previously reported synthesis methods like HF etching. As a result, it expands further the range of MAX phase precursors that can be used and offer important opportunities for tuning the surface chemistry and make MS-MXene as high rate electrode in non-aqueous system

Full textSolid-state thermoelectric conversion, which generates electricity in a direct, silent, vibration-free and maintenance-free way, is of the greatest interest for energy harvesting. The thermal energy is an abundant source for electrical generation, which makes thermoelectricity a good solution to meet the increasing demand for energy. Especially, it is seen as a tool towards low power supply for autonomous electronic devices, as field also known as internet-of-things. Conventional thermoelectric generators (TEG), based on Seebeck effect, generate electric power based on solid-states materials submitted to a temperature gradient. The mechanism of this thermal engine results in a huge thermal flow, which explains their inherent low efficiency. Radically different in nature, the structure of micro-vacuum-gap thermionic converter (MTC) based on thermionic emission virtually eliminates the thermal losses while keeping all attracting features of thermoelectricity. In this work, the concept of thermionic converter is revisited based on low-workfunction coatings and benefiting from mainstream fabrication technologies of MEMS to fabricate electrode pairs with controlled micrometer gaps. Firstly, alkali oxides are deposited and characterized. We find that the cesium oxide compound can reduce the work function of silicon by almost 3eV from an initial value of about 4.2eV. Secondly, a numerical study is lead on the thermal transfer within the device to propose a design. Finally, a micro and nano-fabrication process is developed to fabricate a MTC demonstrator

Full textIndian landscapes are characterized by alterations and lateritic surfaces formed after the extrusion of the Trapps du Deccan ~ 65 Ma ago, and preserved on either side of the western Ghats escarpment carved on its western passive margin. This escarpment separates a low land coastal plain from a highland plateau draining eastward, and intersects both Trapps and archean rocks. Three main lateritic surfaces stepped in the landscape have been identified on either side of the escarpment and mapped on Google Earth. The first oldest surface, noted S1, is characterized by alteration profiles of a bauxitic nature, the second, noted S2, is sealed by a ferruginous duricrust, and the third youngest noted S3 is a pediment gently sloping towards the drains. The denudation history has been reconstructed by combining the 40Ar/39Ar geochronology of potassium manganese oxides (cryptomelane) formed in lateritic manganese ores, and the 3D topographic reconstructions of successive lateritic paleo-landscapes under QGIS. The Ar-Ar ages obtained document three distinct weathering periods: middle Eocene (45 - 44 Ma), upper Eocene - early Miocene (39 - 22 Ma), and middle to late Miocene (14 - 10 Ma). All the results obtained imply relatively low denudation rates between 1 and 6 m/Ma in lowland and between 2 and 7 m/Ma in highland over the last 45 million years. These results suggest that the topography of the west Indian margin changed little during the Cenozoic, with little decline in the escarpment during the same period. These results provide important constraints to unravelling the dynamics of source-to-sink systems in peninsular India
