Geochemical investigations have permitted the refinement of the environmental interpretation of the f-Member of the Qum formation, Central Basin, Iran, which has been established through detailed microfacies (MF) analysis. The analysis revealed that the f-Member carbonates consist of eight distinct microfacies designated by the letters A through H. On the basis of petrographic characteristi...

Since its debut in 2004, graphene has attracted enormous interest because of its unique properties. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has emerged as an important method for the preparation and production of graphene for various applications since the method was first reported in 2008/2009. In this Account, we review graphene CVD on various metal substrates with an emphasis on Ni and Cu. In additi...

To provide the basic information about the release of heavy metals from the pyrite tailings of Huangjiagou pyrite mine, the pyrite tailings were investigated through a series of batch experiments under different initial pH of extractant, temperature, liquid-solid (LS) ratio, and soaking time conditions. Moreover, calcium carbonate was added in the pyrite tailings to determine the reduction effe...

the coupling of tetrazotised 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [acetylacetone,methylacetoacetate and acetoacetanilide] yielded a new series of tetradentate ligand systems. analytical, ir,1h nmr and mass spectral data indicate that the compounds exist in the intramolecularly hydrogen bondeddihydrazone form. dibasic tetradentate n2o2 coordination of these compounds in their [ml...

The growth kinetics of intermetallic compound layers formed between eutectic Sn–58Bi solder and (Cu, electroless Ni–P/Cu) substrate were investigated at temperature between 70 and 120◦C for 1 to 60 days. The layer growth of intermetallic compound in the couple of the Sn–58Bi/Cu and Sn–58Bi/electroless Ni–P system satisfied the parabolic law at given temperature range. As a whole, because the va...

The cation of the title compound, [Cu(L)], is formed by Michael condensation of (4,6,6-trimethyl-3,7-diazanon-3-ene1,9-diamine)copper(II) with methanal and nitropropane. This cation forms a tetracyanonickelate(II) compound, the unit cell of which contains two centrosymmetric tetracyanonickelate(II)-bridged trinuclear cations, namely diaqua1,3 O-di-cyano-1:2 C:N;1:3 C:N-dicyano-1 C-bis(13-ethyl-...

Incorporation of metallic particulate reinforcements in eutectic Sn-Ag solder re­ sults in the formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) along particulate/ solder interfaces with different morphologies. For instance, “sunflower” and “blocky faceted” IMC shapes have been observed around Ni particle reinforce­ ments incorporated in the eutectic Sn-Ag solder matrix. The time and tempera­ ture ab...

In order to reveal the influence of the metals of soil-water interface in a manganese mine (Xiangtan, China), on local water environment, there are six kinds of metals (Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb) characterized by measuring their concentration, correlation, source, and special distribution using principal component analysis, single factor, and Nemero comprehensive pollution index. The results s...
