Previous research undertaken as part of Masters project involved the electrochemical analysis of polyoxometalates encapsulated in single-walled carbon nanotubes. The influence of various supporting electrolytes with different combinations of cations and anions were studied, providing insight into how the different ions transport through the carbon nanotubes. There will be a continuation of this work throughout the project, so that a more comprehensive understanding of the effects of different supporting electrolytes on the electrochemistry of POM@SWNT composites can be delivered. Initial areas of interest are to study the POM@SWNT composites in acidic electrolytes and their deutrated equivalents, to understand the isotopic affects of the electrolyte on the system. A priority is to understand how ions, protons especially, are able to interact with the encapsulated POM. This research will hopefully include evidence of protons being able to diffuse through the hexangonal lattices found along the nanotube walls.

作为Masters项目的一部分，以前进行的研究涉及对包裹在单壁碳纳米管中的多金属氧酸盐进行电化学分析。研究了不同支持电解质与不同的阳离子和阴离子组合的影响，为不同的离子如何通过碳纳米管提供了深入的了解。这项工作将在整个项目中继续进行，以便更全面地了解不同支持电解质对POM@SWNT复合材料电化学的影响。最初感兴趣的领域是研究酸性电解液中的POM@SWNT复合材料及其去中和的等价物，了解电解液对体系的同位素影响。当务之急是了解离子，特别是质子是如何与包裹的POM相互作用的。这项研究有望包括质子能够通过沿纳米管壁发现的六角形晶格扩散的证据。
