Ni–Co alloys have a wide range of applications in various fields owning to their excellent physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. In this paper, we prepare Ni–Co alloy coatings on 316L stain steel surfaces by electroplating. We present a novel approach utilizing a nanosecond laser to induce microtextures on Ni–Co alloy coatings. We study experimentally the effects of laser power and scanning rate on the surface morphologies of Ni–Co alloy coatings. The results indicate that the shape and size of induced microtextures can be controlled by the laser power and scanning rate. The size of grains increases with increase in the work current of the laser (WCL) at a certain scanning rate. With the WCL constant, the size of grains decreases with increase in scanning rate while their average height increases. It is a simple and easily-controlled method for the fabrication of microstructures on Ni–Co alloy coatings, which has promising applications in investigations of the properties of microtextured surfaces, such as friction, adhesion, and wetting. 相似文献
Intermolecular Stetter reaction of aromatic aldehydes with (E)-(2-nitrovinyl)cyclohexane catalyzed by thiazolium A has been developed. The reaction rate and efficiency are profoundly impacted by the presence of thiourea B. The reaction affords moderate to good yields of the Stetter product. Some factors influencing yield were discussed. 相似文献
The identification of catalytically active sites (CASs) in heterogeneous catalysis is of vital importance to design and develop improved catalysts, but remains a great challenge. The CASs have been identified in the low‐temperature selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides by ammonia (SCR) over a hollandite manganese oxide (HMO) catalyst with a rod‐shaped morphology and one‐dimensional tunnels. Electron microscopy and synchrotron X‐ray diffraction determine the surface and crystal structures of the one‐dimensional HMO rods closed by {100} side facets and {001} top facets. A combination of X‐ray absorption spectra, molecular probes with potassium and nitric oxide, and catalytic tests reveals that the CASs are located on the {100} side facets of the HMO rods rather than on the top facets or in the tunnels, and hence semi‐tunnel structural motifs on the {100} facets are evidenced to be the CASs of the SCR reaction. This work paves the way to further investigate the intrinsic mechanisms of SCR reactions. 相似文献
Seven luminescent iridium(III) complexes were prepared to investigate the relationships between chemical structures and properties of protein staining. For the first time, the effect of the main ligand, the π conjugation effect of the ancillary ligand, and the charge effect of organometallic complexes on protein staining has been revealed. Most importantly, this study gives the first experimental evidence of the potential applications of charge‐neutral organometallic complexes in protein staining, which could open an avenue of exploiting novel protein staining agents in the future. 相似文献
The wide range of applications of poly(ethylene)glycol (PEG) in primarily chromatography and other closely related analytical methods has been reviewed. PEG has been used as mobile phase modifier in capillary electrophoresis (CE) as well as ion exchange, size exclusion, and hydrophobic interaction liquid chromatography (LC) methods. Generally in the presence of PEG, LC retention of macromolecules is altered and stability of their structure is maintained. PEG was effective in CE as a permanent coating for fused silica capillaries to shield free silanol groups that can cause protein adsorption to the wall resulting in band broadening and low recovery of the separated proteins. In gas chromatography, PEG-based stationary phases were applied for separation of polar analytes. PEG could also serve as an extraction medium in solid phase microextraction and aqueous two phase systems. Selected analytical applications, primarily LC and CE, involving PEG to facilitate the determination of either small molecules or macromolecules such as proteins in their native form are discussed and representative figures provided.
CdS sensitized NiO electrode was used as the photoactive cathode in a photoelectrochemical cell for water splitting,avoiding the use of a sacrificial electron donor.Photocurrent increment under visible light irradiation was observed after integration of[Co(dmgH)2(4-Me-py)Cl](1) to the photocathode,suggesting 1 could accept electrons from photoexcited CdS for water reduction and NiO could move the holes in the valence band of CdS to anode for water oxidation. 相似文献
