It is shown that electrolytic manganese dioxide, which has been obtained from fluorine-containing electrolytes differs from traditional types of Mn02 obtained by state-of-the-art synthesis methods. This material is characterized by the increased amount of structural defects. It is shown that crystalline structure with a large number of defects has a higher catalytic and electrochemical activity. 

Processes of electrochemical reduction, oxidation, and synthesis of metalloorganic compounds have been investigated intensively. Many metalloorganic complexes and catalysts may be obtained via electrochemical methods. Electrolytic redox processes may be accompanied by reductive elimination or homolytic cleavage of the M — C bond and the formation of various products of radical reactions ...

Such electrodeposition and synthesis methods are based on multielectron processes of metal and nonmetal deposition from ionic melts. The absence of information on the theoretical basis and principles of the control of both multielectron processes and HES processes did not allow one to conduct electrometallurgic synthesis in practice. However, systematic data accumulated at the turn of the century regarding multielectron processes of refractory metal and nonmetal electrodeposition served as the scientific basis and impact for the revived interest in the problem of electrolytic deposition and HES from melts. 

A wide variety of template synthesis methods have been developed for preparing nanomaterials by ECD. At a minimum, the ECD template process requires a conductive substrate that acts as a current collector and electrolyte wet pores. The growth of the material then proceeds from the conductive substrate through the template either along the surface of the template pores or filling them completely. In some cases, the material continues as overgrowth after the template has been filled. The variety of templates currently utilized can be found in the following text. They have been divided between hard and soft templates with a new, innovative example for each one. 

Recently, different preparation methods, such as spark-plasma sinter-ing,f thermal processing methods or polyaspartate precursor meth-ods, have been shown as potential synthesis methods in order to improve the ionic conductivity of LaiMoiOg-based electrolytes. As previously, these techniques optimise the particle morphology and homogeneity resulting in improved performance. 

Hexa.cya.no Complexes. Ferrocyanide [13408-63 ] (hexakiscyanoferrate-(4—)), (Fe(CN) ) , is formed by reaction of iron(II) salts with excess aqueous cyanide. The reaction results in the release of 360 kJ/mol (86 kcal/mol) of heat. The thermodynamic stabiUty of the anion accounts for the success of the original method of synthesis, fusing nitrogenous animal residues (blood, horn, hides, etc) with iron and potassium carbonate. Chemical or electrolytic oxidation of the complex ion affords ferricyanide [13408-62-3] (hexakiscyanoferrate(3—)), [Fe(CN)g] , which has a formation constant that is larger by a factor of 10. However, hexakiscyanoferrate(3—) caimot be prepared by direct reaction of iron(III) and cyanide because significant amounts of iron(III) hydroxide also form. Hexacyanoferrate(4—) is quite inert and is nontoxic. In contrast, hexacyanoferrate(3—) is toxic because it is more labile and cyanide dissociates readily. Both complexes Hberate HCN upon addition of acids. 

Preparation of Memfield resin-bound nitro acetates, which is a suitable bndding block for the development of combinatorial solid phase synthesis, is repotted. The anion of ethyl nitro acetate is generated in DMF by an electrochemical method using Pt cathode, magnesium rod anode, and tetrabutylairunonium bromide as an electrolyte. Alkylaton of this anion with alkyl hahdes gives mono-alkylated products in 80% yield." ... 

The results of development work on processes indicate that the two main methods of preventing the duplex microstructure from forming appear to be fast-firing, or increasing the amount of / "-alumina at low temperatures. Based on these results, Duncan et al. [20] and Zyl et al. [21] have described production processes starting from aluminum oxy-hydroxides or aluminum hydroxides as precursors for the synthesis of the solid electrolyte "-alumina. Duncan et al. described an alumina precursor which substitutes in part or wholly for or-alumina in an established...
