FePc conductivity

Fig. 1. Cyclic voltammetry of 7% w/w iron phthalocyanine, FePc dispersed on Vulcan XC-72 carbon, after a heat treatment at 280°C in a flowing inert atmosphere. The measurement was conducted with the material in the form a thin porous Teflon bonded coating in 1 M NaOH at 25°. Sweep rate 5 mV/s. (Reproduced with permission from ref. 3.

The hydroxylation of n-hexane and epoxidation of stilbens were conducted at 300K in the suspended solutions with PhIO for each powdered sample such as FePc(t-Bu)4/NaY, FePc(t-Bu)4+NaY, FePc/NaY and FePc+NaY. The products in solution were filtered and analyzed by FID gc using a capillary column(PEG-25M). 

JAPC conducted for the past several years conceptual design studies of the DFBR-1 in accordance with the basic policy of the Federation of Electric Power Companies (FEPC) and confirmed the feasibility of top entry loop type reactor. 

As for the demonstration fast breeder reactor (DFBR) of Japan, the Japan Atonaic Power Company (JAPC) conducted conceptual design studies for the past several years, and confirmed the feasibility of top entry loop type reactor concept. Based on results of the design studies, the Federation of Electric Power Companies (FEPC) decided in January 1994 to start construction of the DFBR plant at the beginning of the 2000 s. FEPC also decided the basic specifications of the DFBR plant. 

It is worth mentioning that Wilkinson et al. [148] have also conducted studies at different temperatures using Fe fluoroporphyrin and reported some kinetic parameters such as activation energies. They found that the results were essentially similar to those found with FePc. 

Similarly, the incorporation of iron phthalocyanine (FePc) into a conducting polymer (PAni, or PPy) gives very active electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction in acid medium (Fig.8) [16].

Research has been conducted on many metals including Fe, Co, Mn and Pb in order to find an adequate replacement for Pt. Cobalt and iron have attracted the most attention. These two metals are typically combined with tetramethoxyphenylporphyrin (TMPP) or phthalocyanine (Pc) to form metal macrocyclic complexes. Pyrolyzed FePc and CoTMPP complexes have proven the most effective transition metal-based materials. FePc supported on Ketjen black carbon generated a power density of 634 mW m compared to 593 mW produced by a Pt cathode in the same... 

FIGURE 22. In situ Mossbauer spectra of a fuel cell type electrode containing a polymeric form of FePc operating as an oxygen cathode in 2.3 M H2SO4. Curves A and E were obtained before and after conducting the actual experiments. The other spectra were acquired between (B) 0 and 6 h, (C) 6 and 22 h, and (D) 22 and 71 h.
