Defect‐Healed Au/rGO Coating for the Corrosion Protection of PEMFC Bipolar Plates

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
 A defect‐healed gold/reduced graphene oxide (Au/rGO) coating is presented for stainless steel bipolar plates in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Gold nanoparticles nucleate at graphene oxide defects, blocking corrosive ion penetration and enhancing corrosion resistance, thereby ensuring durable fuel cell operation.

Neutral‐pH Electropolymerization of Aniline on Hierarchically Porous Laser‐Induced Graphene Electrodes for Dual Biosensing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Neutral‐pH electropolymerization of aniline on laser‐induced graphene (LIG) produces stable, brush‐like polyaniline coatings without requiring acidic conditions. The resulting PANI–LIG electrodes exhibit enhanced electroactive surface area, efficient charge transfer, and dual sensing capability for β‐blockers and pH, providing a scalable platform ...
