Phase Behavior of the Phytantriol/C16EO10 System under Controlled Hydration Conditions

Nicole Barber, Samina Akbar, Adam M. Squires

The phase behavior of the phytantriol/C16EO10/water system is investigated. This work shows that the addition of the surfactant C16EO10 (Brij C10) into the system allows the cubic diamond phase to exist at higher temperatures than for a system only containing phytantriol. The …

2026 roadmap toward sustainable thermoelectrics

Jan‐Willem G. Bos, Trupti Mohanty, Taylor D. Sparks, Wenjie Xie et autres

Abstract Thermoelectric (TE) technology uses the Seebeck effect to directly convert heat into electricity or vice versa. Amongst its advantages are the lack of moving parts, reliability, absence of refrigerant gasses and scalability. To date, commercial progress has been limited due to …

Controlled fabrication of highly ordered platinum nanostructures using pulsed electrodeposition

Joshua S. White, Samina Akbar, Adam M. Squires, Diego Alba-Venero et autres

Pulsed potential (PP) electrodeposition was utilized for the first time to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) platinum (Pt) nanostructures within phytantriol-based double diamond cubic templates, both with or without 20 % w/w Brij-56 as a pore swelling agent. Unlike conventional direct potential (DP) deposition, …

Electrodeposition of Thermoelectric Materials

Samuel Charles Perry, Samina Akbar, Robert Clarke, S. M. U. Shah et autres

Thermoelectric (TE) materials produce electrical energy when exposed to a thermal gradient and so have unsurprisingly gathered increasing interest as a promising tool in the route to reduced carbon energy emissions. However, many synthetic routes currently involve high‐temperatures, oxygen‐free environments and harsh …

A comprehensive study on effective triple‐phase boundary density and its correlation with active anode thickness in solid oxide fuel cells

Shingruf Shaukat, Asif Nadeem Tabish, Muneeb Irshad, Samina Akbar et autres

Abstract Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are highly promising devices for efficient and low‐emission energy conversion. The effective triple‐phase boundary (TPB) density refers to the fraction of percolated TPB density that effectively contributes to the current production during cell operation. This is …
