How can I connect a carbon paper electrode to a platinum wire in the open air-cathode MFCs?
Dear chandrasekhar
may be you can use a conductive epoxy to bind the carbon paper and platinum wire as the conductive epoxy may not effect the carbon paper resistance and conductivity. :)
Well, this is always a tricky question. Basically, carbon paper was designed to be used in conventional fue lcells. There it was pressed agrainst a current collector. This would in fact be the ideal way - to press the paper, e.g., against a metal mesh or so...
Dear Dr Uwe Schröder,
Greetings from India.
Thank you very much for valuable suggestions....

Dear Jan B. A. Arends,
Thank you very much for the information.....
So I can also use conductive carbon cement. But I think that carbon cement resistance should be less or near/equal to the carbon paper and platinum to reduce omic losses. once again thank you for information.

I will use silverpaint (mixture of epoxy and silver nanoparticles), as I'm doing for SEM imaging of organic samples. The top of sample is connected with carbon conductive support by layer of silverpaint to ensure a good conductivity between sample and carbon support. Maybe it will be useful in your experiments.
usually people use silver paste ...
but i used conducting carbon tape to stick.
Dear Dr Andrzej Szczurek,
Is Silverpaint (mixture of epoxy and silver nanoparticles) commercially available...
or need to prepare in laboratory...
Thank you very much....
Dear Partha Sarathy ,
If possible can I get more details regarding Conducting carbon tape.
Thank you for the valuable information,.....

Dear Dr Chandrasekhar Kuppam
Silverpaint is commonly used in SEM protocol of sample preparation, so it is commercially available, for example I found this :

... soldering will not work this works only between metals. The two other suggestions are definitely better.
Dear Dr Johannes,
Thank you very much ...........
