TL;DR: The supportless Pt3Rh nanoclusters (Pt3Rh NC) as mentioned in this paper were prepared using formic acid reductant and exhibited an improved activity and durability toward electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol (MOR).
Abstract: The supportless PtRh nanoclusters (Pt3Rh NC) were prepared using formic acid reductant. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) showed individual particle sizes less than 7 nm, and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis confirmed a 3:1 ratio of Pt and Rh. The as-prepared Pt3Rh NC exhibited an improved activity and durability toward electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol (MOR) and possesses greater CO tolerance than conventional PtRu and other Pt-based MOR catalysts. For comparison, the Vulcan carbon supported (Pt3Rh NC/VC) catalyst was prepared under identical conditions and used for MOR. The supportless Pt3Rh NC catalyst possessed mass activity of 1392.5 mA mg–1 with an If/Ib ratio of 2.61, which is nearly 3-fold higher than the Pt3Rh NC/VC and also comparable to the benchmark MOR catalysts. The surface poisoning rate was found to be relatively smaller compared to the standard PtRu/C catalysts (δ = 0.0044% s–1). The activation energy for MOR was found to be 22.5 kJ mol–1. The durability ...

TL;DR: Chitosan with nylon 6 membranes was evaluated as adsorbents to remove copper and cadmium ions from synthetic industrial wastewater and found the optimal pH for the removal of Cd(II) and Cu(II), which is parallel at all time.
Abstract: Chitosan with nylon 6 membranes was evaluated as adsorbents to remove copper and cadmium ions from synthetic industrial wastewater. Chitosan and nylon 6 with glutaraldehyde blend ratio with (1:1+Glu, 1:2+Glu, and 2:1+Glu) have been prepared and these were used as membranes to remove copper and cadmium ions from synthetic industrial wastewater. Characterization of the synthesized membrane has been done with FTIR, XRD, TGA/DTA, DSC, and SEM. Chemical parameters for quantities of adsorption of heavy metal contamination have been done and the kinetics of adsorption has also been carried out. The optimal pH for the removal of Cd(II) and Cu(II) using chitosan with nylon 6. Maximum removal of the metals was observed at pH 5 for both the metals. The effect of adsorbent dose also has a pronounced effect on the percentage of removal of the metals. Maximum removal of both the metals was observed at 5 g/100 ml of the adsorbent. Copper and cadmium recovery is parallel at all time. The percentage of removal of copper increased with increase in the pH from 3 to 5. In the case of cadmium containing wastewater, the maximum removal of metal occurred at pH 5. The uptake amount of Cu2+ ions on chitosan increased rapidly with increasing contact time from 0 to 360 min and then reaches equilibrium after 360 min; the equilibrium constant for copper and cadmium ions is more or less the same for the adsorption reaction.
