A Study on Nanocomposites for Biofuel Cell in Surface Engineering
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
A novel strategy of surface functionalization and immobilization for EBFC applications using electropolymerized polypyrrole thin film, and demonstrate the advantages of the electropolymerized pyrrole immobilized enzyme/graphene sheet composite electrodes for EBFC application.A membrane less enzymatic glucose/oxygen biofuel cell applications is described using surface Engineering. The biofuel cell employs the gold plate electrodes modified by specific graphene-enzyme conjugations, which are immobilized by electrochemical deposition of the conducting polypyrrole polymer. The electrochemical activity of these electrodes is superior to the electrodes immobilized with sol–gel. Such enhancements can be attributed to the excellent electrical property and enzymeloading capability of the polypyrrole material. The power output and the biostability of the integrated biofuel cell can be also improved.
