A reversible two-electron redox reaction of dopamine was observed at the MWNT-Nafion modified GCE. In comparison with a bare GCE and a Nafion-modified GCE, MWNT-Nafion modified GCE has a higher sensitivity for dopamine. This modified GCE has an excellent selectivity towards dopamine even in the presence of high concentration ascorbic acid(AA) and uric acid(UA) since AA and UA have no observable electrochemical responses at the modified GCE. The electrochemical behavior of dopamine was closely related to the pH of the buffer solution. The oxidation peak current was proportional to the concentration of dopamine over the range from 5×10 -8 to \{1×\}10 -6 mol/L, and a detection limit of 2.5×10 -9 mol/L was obtained after 3 min open-circuit accumulation. The dispersion and morphology of MWNT-Nafion film were investigated by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).展开更多
LiNi1-xCoxO2 cathode materials for lithium ion batteries were synthesized by the co-precipitation and solid-state reaction methods with LiOH·H2O, Ni(NO3)2·6H2O and Co(NO3)2·6H2O as raw materials.

The materials were characterized by XRD, SEM and electrochemical tests. The results showed that synthesized cathode materials were with layered structure similar to α-NaFeO2 and uniform morphology and nearly normal grain size distribution and better electrochemical performance when x was 0.18. The first charge and discharge capacity of the cathode material was 224.3 mAh·g-1 and 194.2 mAh·g-1, respectively. 88.5% of the first discharge capacity remained at the 20th cycle.展开更多
