Abstract

Nanotechnology applications in technique, analytical chemistry, environmental chemistry and life science allows to change ours conception about possibilities of chemical technology. One of significant applications of nanotechnology is electrochemistry. In electrochemistry, applications of nanotechnology can be endless: from sensors for monitoring of traces (analytical signal /current/ –at level 10-12 -10-7 A) to power sources such as accumulators and fuel cells (current range from 10-7 up to 102-103 A). In general, dynamic electrical current range is of 14 orders. It should be underlined that in all the cases we have deal with 3-D Nano-structures of electrodes. R&D work in the field allows dramatically increasing sensitivity of sensors and efficiency of power sources in comparison to traditional bulk electrodes. One of main challenge of future is new energetics. Oil free, powerful and at the same time, ecological friendly energetic can change human's future. One of prospective i...
