The desulfurization of gas streams using aqueous iron(II)sulfate (Fe(II)SO4), zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) and copper sulfate (CuSO4) solutions as washing liquor is studied theoretically and experimentally. The desulfurization is accomplished by a precipitation reaction that occurs when sulfide ions and metal ions are brought into contact with each other. A thermodynamic study has been used to determin...

Superionic semiconductor chalcogenides with mixed electronic-ionic conductivity have very low lattice thermal and are excellent thermoelectrics. Doping other elements is one of the methods for optimizing useful properties a material. In this work, nanosized polycrystalline alloys nonstoichiometric Cu1.85S copper sulfide content potassium studied. The paper presents results X-ray phase analysis,...

Copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) thin films were deposited from homogeneous solutions of precursors and directly onto conductive films via selective thermolysis by microwave heating. Microwave energy is absorbed strongly by conductive films, which enables preferential heating to a sufficiently high temperature for the deposition of CZTS exclusively on the conductive layer without homogeneous nucl...

The ability to produce three-dimensional physical property models of the subsurface from surface geophysical data, coupled with an increasing need to explore for minerals in concealed terranes, results in geophysical inversions providing more significant information to the exploration team. We examine the role that geophysical inversion can play in an integrated mineral exploration program, and...

In this work, the effects of carbon content and manganese sulfide addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of copper steel parts have been studied. Steel powder mixture containing 2%Cu and different graphite contents with and without MnS additions were compacted, sintered and forged to almost full density. Forged samples, with near theoretical densities, were tested for tensile,...

In this paper, we present a novel and low - cost method for preparing copper sulfide films on polyamide. Non-treated as well pre-treated PA6 by 3 different methods (in boiled water; in NaOH solution; water then solution) were used the formation of Cu2S layers sorption-diffusion method. Molten sulfur has been sulfurization agent. The XRD, FTIR, UV-VIS to characterize structural, optical, electri...

All-Solid-State Batteries In article number 2206762, Yijie Liu, David Mitlin, and co-workers report a stable anode-free all-solid-state battery (AF-ASSB) with sulfide-based solid-electrolyte (argyrodite Li6PS5Cl). The is achieved by tuning the wetting of lithium metal on “empty” copper current-collector. cover image, sprinting antelope represent cations rapidly diffusing through solid-state sul...
