چکیده

Nanoporous metal prepared by the corrosion of an alloy can take the form of monolithic, millimeter-sized bodies containing approximately 1015 nanoscale ligaments per cubic millimeter. Applications have been suggested, for instance in catalysis, sensing and actuation. Although the process of dealloying has seen many studies, the underlying processes remain to be clarified in more detail. Here we explore the structure size and residual Ag content in AgAu alloys during electrochemical dealloying. We study different dealloying potentials and a series of alloys including specifically solid solutions that are dilute in Au. A major finding is that nanoporous samples with large content of residual Ag can be prepared. This is surprising in view of the overpotential required for bulk dealloying. The overpotential exceeds the variation of the Ag Nernst potential through the alloy series, suggesting that equilibrium thermodynamics of the bulk alloy alone cannot explain the arrest of the corrosion at finite Ag content. The data set acquired in our study will provide a data base for verifying models of the corrosion process that include capillary terms as well kinetic aspects such as adatom diffusion and vacancy island nucleation.

Thursday MM 37 : Nanomaterials II

We investigate magnetic properties of defective graphene, using a modified Hubbard model of the pi electrons of the carbon atoms. Spin interaction between pi elections and dangling sp2 bond has been taken into consideration. Mean field approximation is employed in our calculation, in order to deal with very large fragment of graphene. Magnetism of graphene with different types of defects will b...

Adsorptive Removal of Cr(VI) and Cu(II) Ions from Water Solution using Graphene Oxide-Manganese Ferrite (GMF) Nanomaterials

Chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) are heavy metals known for their dangerous effect towards human health and could enter into human body mainly through ingestion. Over the years, different treatment methods have been used to eliminate heavy metal from raw water source and these include (co)precipitation, coagulation/flocculation, adsorption and ion- exchange. Nonetheless, adsorption is the most pro...
