Abstract
To improve the catalytic performance and durability of Pt catalysts used for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs), alloying of Pt with other transition metals such as Ru, Co, Ni, and Fe is considered an effective approach. Despite the significant progress made in the preparation of bimetallic alloys and their utilization for MOR, improving the activity and durability of the catalysts to make them commercially viable remains a stiff challenge. In this work, trimetallic Pt100-x(MnCo)x (16 < x < 41) catalysts were successfully synthesized via borohydride reduction followed by hydrothermal treatment at 150 °C. The electrocatalytic performance of the synthesized trimetallic Pt100-x(MnCo)x (16 < x < 41) catalysts toward MOR was studied using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The results affirm that all Pt100-x(MnCo)x (16 < x < 41) alloys have superior MOR activity and durability as compared to bimetallic PtCo alloys and commercially available Pt/C (comm. Pt/C) catalysts. Among all the compositions studied, the Pt60Mn1.7Co38.3/C catalyst exhibited superior mass activity (1.3 and 1.9 times higher than those of Pt81Co19/C and comm. Pt/C, respectively) toward MOR. Furthermore, all the newly synthesized Pt100-x(MnCo)x/C (16 < x < 41) catalysts showed better CO tolerance when compared with comm. Pt/C. This improved performance of the Pt100-x(MnCo)x/C (16 < x < 41) catalyst can be attributed to the synergistic effect of Co and Mn on the Pt lattice.

Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles were synthesized using the gamma radiolytic technique in an aqueous solution containing Platinum tetraammine chloride in presence of poly vinyl pyrrolidone, isopropanol, tetrahydrofuran and deionized water. The gamma irradiation was carried out in a60Co gamma source chamber and the particle size was found to decrease from 4.88 to 3.14 nm on increasing the gamma radiation dose from 80 to 120 kGy. UV-visible absorption spectra were measured and revealed two steady absorption maxima at 216 and 264 nm in the UV region, which was blue shifted (i.e. toward lower wavelength) with decreasing particle size. By taking the conduction electrons of an isolated particle that are not entirely free, but instead bound to their respective quantum levels, the optical absorption of platinum nanoparticles can be calculated via intra-band quantum excitation for particle sizes similar to those measured experimentally. We found that the calculated absorption maxima of electronic excitations matched the measured absorption maxima well. This finding suggests that the optical absorption of metal nanoparticles commonly applied in nanoscience and nanotechnology can be described accurately by the quantum excitation of conduction electrons.

Abstract
A new approach is presented for sensitive and selective measurement of sulfite (SO3(2-)) in beverages based on a simple flow injection system with amperometric detection. In this work, the sulfite sensor was a glassy carbon electrode modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes-poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)-gold nanoparticles composites (CNTs-PDDA-AuNPs/GC). Electrochemical oxidation of sulfite with this electrode was first studied in 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) using cyclic voltammetry. The results indicated that the CNTs-PDDA-AuNPs/GC electrode possesses electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of sulfite with high sensitivity and selectivity. Sulfite was quantified using amperometric measurement with the new sensor at +0.4V vs Ag/AgCl in conjunction with flow injection. The linear working range for the quantitation of sulfite was 2-200 mg L(-1) (r(2)=0.998) with a detection limit of 0.03 mg L(-1) (3σ of blank) and an estimated precision of 1.5%.The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of sulfite in fruit juices and wines with a sample throughput of 23 samples per hour.

Abstract
A solvothermal method is used to deposit Pt nanoparticles on anodized TiO2 nanotubes (T_NT). Surface characterization using SEM, EDX, and XRD indicates the formation of polycrystalline TiO2 nanotubes of 110 ± 10 nm diameter with Pt nanoparticle islands. The application of the T_NT/Pt photoanode has been examined toward simultaneous electrooxidation and photo(electro)oxidation of formic acid (HCOOH). Upon UV-vis photoillumination, the T_NT/Pt photoelectrode generates a current density of 72 mA/cm(2), which is significantly higher (∼39-fold) than that of the T_NT electrode (1.85 mA/cm(2)). This boosting in the overall current is attributable to the enhanced oxidation of formic acid at the T_NT/Pt-electrolyte interface. Further, a series of cyclic voltammetric (CV) responses, of which each anodic scan is switched to photoillumination at a certain applied bias (i.e., 0.2 V, 0.4 V, etc.), is used to identify the role of T_NT/Pt as a promoter for the photoelectrooxidation of formic acid and understand a carbon monoxide (CO)-free pathway. Chronoamperometric (j/t) measurements demonstrate the evidence of an external bias dependent variation in the time lag during the current stabilization. An analysis of the CV plots and j/t profiles suggests the existence of both the charge-transfer controlled process and the diffusion-controlled process during formic acid photoelectrooxidation.

Abstract
A general synthetic method for functionalization of mesoporous silica with amino acid has been developed. The carboxylic acid functionalized SBA-15 was conjugated with l-phenylalanine (Phe) and l-tryptophan (Trp) to obtain nontoxic amino acid-conjugated functionalized mesoporous silica materials. The materials were used as adsorbents for the removal of the herbicide Paraquat (PQ) and its analog, ethyl viologen dibromide (EVB) from aqueous solutions. In comparison to the commercially available activated carbon adsorbents, the silica-based adsorbents prepared in this study exhibited relatively higher PQ removal efficiency in aqueous solutions at room temperature and pH 7.0. The silica-based adsorbents, pendant with amino acid moieties exhibited greater adsorption capacities toward PQ and EVB than the analogs but without the amino acid moiety, suggesting that there is a benefit for the enhanced π-π interaction between the aromatic groups of the conjugated amino acid moieties and the adsorbate. This bioconjugated method developed here provides a promising new tool to synthesize new materials for detoxification of herbicides in clinical trials.

Abstract
Attempts to produce colloidal platinum nanoparticles by using steady absorption spectra with various chemical-based reduction methods often resulted in the fast disappearance of the absorption maxima leaving reduced platinum nanoparticles with little information on their optical properties. We synthesized colloidal platinum nanoparticles in an aqueous solution of polyvinyl pyrrolidone by gamma radiolytic reduction method, which produced steady absorption spectra of fully reduced and highly pure platinum nanoparticles free from by-product impurities or reducing agent contamination. The average particle size was found to be in the range of 3.4–5.3 nm and decreased with increasing dose due to the domination of nucleation over ion association in the formation of metal nanoparticles by the gamma radiolytic reduction method. The platinum nanoparticles exhibit optical absorption spectra with two absorption peaks centered at about 216 and 264 nm and the peaks blue shifted to lower wavelengths with decreasing particle size. The absorption spectra of platinum nanoparticles were also calculated using quantum mechanical treatment and coincidently a good agreement was obtained between the calculated and measured absorption peaks at various particle sizes. This indicates that the 216 and 264-nm absorption peaks of platinum nanoparticles conceivably originated from the intra-band transitions of conduction electrons of (n = 5, l = 2) and (n = 6, l = 0) energy states respectively to higher energy states. The absorption energies, i.e., conduction band energies of platinum nanoparticles derived from the absorption peaks increased with increasing dose and decreased with increasing particle size.

Abstract
As one of the most effective synthesis tools, layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technology can provide a strong non-covalent integration and accurate assembly between homo- or hetero-phase compounds or oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, resulting in highly-ordered nanoscale structures or patterns with excellent functionalities and activities. It has been widely used in the developments of novel materials and nanostructures or patterns from nanotechnologies to medical fields. However, the application of LbL self-assembly in the development of highly efficient electrocatalysts, specific functionalized membranes for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and electrode materials for supercapacitors is a relatively new phenomenon. In this review, the application of LbL self-assembly in the development and synthesis of key materials of PEMFCs including polyelectrolyte multilayered proton-exchange membranes, methanol-blocking Nafion membranes, highly uniform and efficient Pt-based electrocatalysts, self-assembled polyelectrolyte functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphenes will be reviewed.

Abstract
Nanocrystalline Pd electrocatalyst promoted with transition metal oxide ( Co 3 O 4, NiO , and CoNiO x) is successfully synthesized on high surface carbon support by using intermittent microwave heating (IMH) method. The physical properties of the catalysts are characterized by XRD, TEM, and EDX. The results show that there is no significant microstructure change between Pd and Pd -oxide electrocatalysts and the particle sizes are in the range 5.8–3.9 nm. The linear sweep voltammogram and chronoamperometry results for the electro-oxidation of ethanol show that Pd -oxide/ C electrocatalysts exhibit much better electrochemical activity and stability as compared with pure Pd / C electrocatalyst. The results show that Pd – CoNiO x/ C exhibits the best stability and highest electro-oxidation activity, indicating the promising potential as an alternative electrocatalysts for the direct ethanol fuel cells.

Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles with a mean size of 1.7 nm were synthesized by reduction in sodium acetate solution in 1,2-ethanediol. The particles were then functionalized with dodecylamine, dodecanethiol, and omega-mercapto-undecanoic acid (MUDA). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed important variations of the particle surface state with functionalization whereas their structure differs only slightly. Platinum-to-sulfur charge transfer inferred from XPS of thiol-coated particles enabled the identification of the formation of Pt (delta+)-S (delta-) bonds. The native carbon monoxide (CO) at the surface of the particles was a very efficient probe for following the functionalization of the particles by FTIR. The red shift of nu(CO) accounts for the nature of the ligands at the surface of the particles and also for their degree of functionalization. Immobilization on alumina substrates of particles functionalized with MUDA was realized by immersion in colloidal solutions. Free molecules, isolated particles, and aggregates of particles interconnected by hydrogen bonds at the surface of alumina were evidenced by FTIR. With successive washings, the energy variation of the CO stretch of carbon monoxide and of carboxylic acid groups and the relative intensity nu(CH2)/nu(CO) showed that the free molecules are eliminated first, followed by aggregates and less-functionalized particles. Particles presenting a high degree of functionalization by MUDA remain and interact strongly with alumina.
