Thin film microfabrication technique was employed to fabricate a platinum based parallel-electrode structured impedance sensor. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and equivalent circuit analysis of the small amplitude (±5 mV) AC impedance measurements (frequency range: 1 MHz to 0.1 Hz) at ambient temperature were carried out. Testing media include 0.001 M, 0.01 M, 0.1 M NaCl and KCl s...

oxidative coupling of methane has been studied over (mn+a+w)/sio2 catalysts in a continuous–flow microreactor, where a represents an alkali ion of li, na, k or cs having different weight percents. the main aim of this study is to find the role of alkali ions in interaction between mn and w species with sio2 to make a proper structure for catalyzing oxidative coupling of methane (ocm) reaction. ...

Ionic diffusion coefficients in the membrane are needed for modelling of ion transport ion-exchange membranes (IEMs) with Nernst-Planck equation. We have determined ionic Na+, OH?, H+, Cl?, SO42?, NaSO4?, and HSO4? from experiments dilute NaCl, NaOH, HCl, Na2SO4, H2SO4 solutions through IEMs conductivity measured these solutions, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The order fluxes ac...

Abstract Operational data over 2 years from three large Austrian wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with design capacities of 4 million, 950,000 and 110,000 population equivalent (PE) were examined. Salt peaks, due to thawing road salt detected quantified by electrical conductivity, temperature chloride measurement in the inflow WWTPs. Daily NaCl loads up 1,147 t/d PE-specific 0.26–0.5 kg NaCl...

nanosized tio2 particles were prepared by sol–gel method. the tio2 particles were co-deposited with chromium using electrodeposition technique. in investigating of coating surfaces by scanning electron microscope (sem), the results showed that the morphology of the coating surface was changed by adding tio2 nanoparticles to the chromium coating. the corrosion behavior of the coatings was assess...

Well-defined 3D Fe(3)S(4) flower-like microspheres were synthesized via a simple biomolecule-assisted hydrothermal process for the first time. On the basis of a series of contrast experiments, the probable growth mechanism and fabrication process of the products were proposed. The electrical conductivity property of the as-synthesized Fe(3)S(4) sample exhibited a rectifying characteristic when ...

Thermal conductivity κ(T ) and thermoelectric power S(T ) studies on (Y,Gd)Ba2(Cu1−xMnx)3O7−δ (x 0.02) superconductors are presented here. Thermal conductivity for all the samples exhibits a hump below the superconducting transition temperature Tc. The peak height of the hump decreases with the Mn content in both the Yand Gd-based systems, barring GdBa2(Cu0.99Mn0.01)3O7−δ. The peak height reduc...

Abstract Background The volume of the coagulation zones created during radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is limited by appearance roll-off. Doping tissue with conductive fluids, e.g., gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) could enlarge these delaying Our goal was to characterize electrical conductivity a substrate doped AuNPs in computer modeling study and ex vivo experiments investigate their effect on zone ...

The aim of this paper is to study the effect of Mn concentration on the structural, magneticand optical properties of TiO2 nanoparticles. TiO2 nanopowders with Mn concentration of 0%,0.2%, 1% and 5% were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The structural, surface morphologyand average crystal grain size, optical, magnetic properties and chemical compounds of thesamples are studied using XRD, FE-...
