Anodic Acetoxylation of Mesitylene in Acetic Acid Containing Nitrate Ions.

Corrosion behaviour of mild steel in aqueous acetic acid solutions containing different amounts of formic acid

The kinetics of mild steel corrosion in 20:0, 19:1, 18:2 and 15:5 (v/v%) aqueous mixture of acetic and formic acids has been investigated by weight loss and potentiostatic polarization techniques. The effects of composition of electrolyte and temperature on the corrosion rate of mild steel have been evaluated. The corrosion rate of mild steel increased linearly with temperature as well as amoun...

The effect of sulfuric acid on pore initiation in anodic alumina formed in oxalic acid

In this work, a tracer study on pore initiation in anodic alumina in oxalic acid was performed. Effects of some experimental parameters such as applied electrical potential, electrolyte composition and heat pretreatment were evaluated. Electrochemical and morphological experiments were performed using potentiostatic anodizing and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques, respectively. Effe...

Investigating the Antibacterial Activity of ZnO Nano-particles Suspension Containing Acetic Acid against Staphylococcus aureus in Mango Juice

Background and Objectives: Zinc oxide (ZnO) nano-particles have been proven to have strong antibacterial activity against food borne pathogens. The practical applications of different concentrations (Control, 0, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 mM) of ZnO suspensions containing 1% acetic acid were investigated against the pathogenic bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus. Materials and Methods: The projects of l...

Acetic Acid in Cholera

The treatment of cholera by acetic acid, suggested by Dr. Greene in the September number of the Indian Medical Gazette, deserves, I think, to be put to the test by the profession. When I perused Dr. Greene's article, it struck me that, from its strong antiseptic property, acetic acid may do good by counteracting the morbific influence of the cholera miasm in the blood. Besides, being a stimulan...
