The Cu–P and Cu–P–SiC composite coatings on carbon steel substrates were deposited via electroless plating. The anti-corrosion properties of Cu–P and Cu–P–SiC coatings were studied in 3.5% NaCl solution. The anti-corrosion properties of Cu–P and Cu–P–SiC coatings were investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution by the weight loss, potentiodynamic polarisation and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. It has been found that the shift in the corrosion potential (Ecorr) towards the noble direction, decrease in the corrosion current density (Icorr), increase in the charge transfer resistance (Rct) and decrease in the double layer capacitance (Cdl) values indicated an improvement in corrosion resistance with the incorporation of SiC particles in the Cu–P matrix. The effects of varying the SiC concentration on the corrosion resistance of carbon steel were investigated and it was found that the best anti-corrosion property of Cu–P–SiC is at 5 g L?1 SiC in the bath formulation. 相似文献
This study introduces a new surface-renewable electrode based on a sol–gel derived graphene ceramic composite. The electrode was prepared by dispersing graphene nanosheets into a solution of the sol–gel precursors containing methyl triethoxysilane in methanol and hydrochloric acid. During hydrolysis of methyl triethoxysilane, the graphene nanosheets are trapped in the gel. After moulding and drying the composite, it can be used as a surface-renewable electrode to which we refer as a graphene ceramic composite electrode (GCCE). Cyclic voltammograms of the hexacyanoferrate(II/III) model redox system at the GCCE were compared to those obtained with a conventional carbon ceramic electrode and showed a highly improved electron transfer rate at the GCCE. The electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid as a model analyte was then studied at working potential of 50 mV and over the 3–84 μM concentration range. It revealed a sensitivity of 6.06 μA μM−1 cm−2 and a detection limit of 0.82 μM. The GCCE was successfully applied to the determination of ascorbic acid in orange juice and urine samples. Advantages such as good mechanical and chemical stability, ease of fabrication, and reproducible preparation make the GCCE a potentially useful and widely applicable renewable electrode for use in routine analysis.
Here, we report the synthesis, photophysical properties and photodynamic effects in DLA live cells of three water soluble squaraine dyes, viz. bisbenzothiazolium squaraine dyes SQMI and SQDI with iodine in one and both benzothiazolium units, respectively, and an unsymmetrical squaraine dye ASQI containing iodinated benzothiazolium and aniline substituents. The diiodinated SQDI showed an anomalous trend in both fluorescence and triplet quantum yields over the monoiodinated SQMI, with SQDI showing higher fluorescence and lower triplet quantum yields compared to SQMI. Nanosecond laser flash photolysis of SQDI and SQMI indicated the formation of triplet excited states with quantum yield of 0.19 and 0.26, respectively. On photoirradiation, both the SQDI and SQMI generate singlet oxygen and it was observed that both dyes undergoing oxidation reactions with the singlet oxygen generated. ASQI which exhibited a lower triplet quantum yield of 0.06 was, however, stable and did not react with the singlet oxygen generated. In vitro cytotoxicity studies of these dyes in DLA live cells were performed using Trypan blue dye exclusion method and it reflect an order of cytotoxicity of SQDI>SQMI>ASQI. Intracellular generation of the ROS was confirmed by dichlorofluorescein assay after the in vitro PDT. 相似文献
In present work, an alternative irradiation system based on a symmetric cylindrical tank filled with a moderator containing hydrogen, which was equipped with a NaI(Tl) scintillation detector, was proposed for using in determination of neutron flux. This irradiation system was designed by MCNP4C code, with considering a 241Am–Be neutron source in several volumes and different materials. When the neutron is captured by hydrogen, a 2.22 MeV prompt gamma-ray is emitted. The gamma pulse-height spectrum shows a photo-peak around 2.22 MeV whose net area is proportional to the total emission rate of neutron. The simulation result showed that a cylindrical tank with 110 cm diameter and height filled with water can be a suitable system for neutron source strength calibration. Furthermore, a proper two-layer shielding must be placed between the source and detector for preventing neutrons and gamma rays to directly enter the detector. 相似文献
In the present study, the Monte Carlo calculations were carried out to evaluate the effect of beam divergence on the response of a spherical thermal-neutron counter at the center of a spherical moderating assembly. A model of 3He detector surrounded with 10 in. diameter polyethylene sphere was utilized to calculate the point isotropic and plane-parallel beams responses of twelve different energies, and obtain the geometry factor and its parameters (a4 and a5) based on general formulations. Furthermore, for 2, 3, 5, 8, 10 and 15 in. spheres exposed to three different radionuclide neutron sources with various energy spectra, the parameters of geometry factor were quantified, as a function of moderator radius and neutron energy. Obtained results based on this method were compared with the experimental data for one specific source. Finally, by these parameters the obtained values of the geometry factor based on two formulations were compared to each other. 相似文献
The oxidation of para‐xylene to terephthalic acid has been commercialised as the AMOCO process(Co/Mn/Br) that uses a homogeneous catalyst of cobalt and manganese together with a corrosive bromide compound as a promoter. This process is conducted in acidic medium at a high tempera‐ture(175–225 °C). Concerns over environmental and safety issues have driven studies to find mild‐er oxidation reactions of para‐xylene. This review discussed past and current progress in the oxida‐tion of para‐xylene process. The discussion concentrates on the approach of green chemistry in‐cluding(1) using heterogeneous catalysts with promising high selectivity and mild reaction condi‐tion,(2) application of carbon dioxide as a co‐oxidant, and(3) application of alternative promoters. The optimisation of para‐xylene oxidation was also outlined. 相似文献
In this study, a sensitive nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) biosensor based on Au‐Copper oxide nanocomposite modified carbon ceramic electrode (Au?CuO/CCE) was introduced. The developed NADH biosensor was prepared by controlled electrodeposition of copper and Au nanoparticles on the surface of a renewable CCE and was turned to Au?CuO/CCE by cycling the potential in alkaline media. The prepared electrode was carefully characterized with scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy and cyclic voltammetry techniques. According to scan rate study, surface coverage (Γ) of the fabricated Au?CuO/CCE was calculated to be 1.54×10?8 mol cm?2 which was 3 time more than CuO/CCE. The fabricated electrode is well stable which could be reliably utilized for the determination of NADH with amperometry technique over the concentration range of 1–29 μM with sensitivity and detection limit (S/N=3) of 0.1025 μA μM?1 and 0.09 μM respectively. The prepared biosensor was used for NADH determination in serum samples with fast response time and satisfactory analytical results. 相似文献
