Fabrication, performance and durability test of Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) based on Pt/c and Pd/c catalysts have been carried out. MEA was made using Catalyst Coated Membrane (CCM) method. The catalyst coating was carried out by spraying catalyst onto membrane (MEA 1) and with capton (MEA 2). MEA was characterized using Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) method to measure Electrochemical Surface Ar…
The major emphasis of this book is on physical mechanisms and sources of the ULF/ELF natural electromagnetic fields noises. In the course of this text, some of these mechanisms of magnetospheric origin will be treated in detail and others in a more sketchy fashion, while the global electromagnetic resonances excited by lightning activity and other sources are the priority. The interested reader…
Schumann resonance has been studied for more than half a century. The field became popular among researchers of the terrestrial environment using natural sources of electromagnetic radiation—lightning strokes, primarily—and now many Schumann observatories have been established around the world. A huge number of publications can be found in the literature, the most recent collection of which…
Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) resistance test study with Pt/C and Pt-Ru/C catalysts on Direct Ethanol Fuel Cell (DEFC) has been carried out. The electrode preparation using Pt/C and Pt-Ru/C catalyst was applied using the Doctor Blade method. The electrodes were characterized using the Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) method to determine the catalytic activity of the electrodes based on the value of …
Manufacturing and performance test of the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) based on Pd / C and Pt / C catalysts has been carried out. MEA was made using the Catalyst Coated Membrane (CCM) method. Catalyst coating was carried out by spraying the catalyst directly onto the membrane (MEA 1) and coating the catalyst using capton (MEA 2). MEA was characterized using the Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) meth…
The synthesis of Pd-Ni/C catalyst is an effort to reduce the use of Pt on the electrodes. The Pd-Ni/C catalyst is used as an anode catalyst’s were tested performance Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuell Cell (PEMFC) application. The catalyst prepared by impregnating NiCl2.6H2O into Pd/C with total loading 0.5 mg/cm2. The Pd-Ni/C anode with ratio of Pd:Ni 100:0 …

Mass ratio Pd-Co/C catalyst was varied by using impregnation method. Furthermore, electrode sized 25 cm2 with loading 0.5 mg/cm2. Anode side was sprayed with Pd:Co catalyst varied by mass ratio at 1:0; 0.75:0.25; 0.50:0.50; 0.25:0.75; 0:1, …
Fabrication and characterization of Pt/C and Pt-Ru/C electrodes for the conversion of carbon dioxide to methanol have been carried out. The electrodes were characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). XRD analysis results shows the diffractogram of the electrode with a Pt/C catalyst obtained at 2θ = 39.7⁰ shows charact…
Steel is an composite of metal wherever its almosty used in all kinds of existing equipment such as construction machinery, buildings, household appliances and many others. The choice of material from steel is because it has varied properties and can be made to any shape. However be reversed many and larger used, material of steel its susceptible to be corrosion. Corrosion is a either form redu…
