Palladium is an element of PGM group that has significant physical properties. This leads to more attention to this metal. Due to vast applications of palladium in industry and its usage in jewelry, its price plays an important role in economic. Therefore, forecasting its price is crucial subject in economic and engineering design. This paper proposes the model GM(1,1) to predict the Palladium ...

In this work, a blending strategy based on compounding the hydrophilic titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles with the host polypropylene (PP) pellets, followed by the common membrane manufacture process of melt extruding/annealing/stretching, was used to improve the polarity and thus electrolyte uptake capability of the PP-based microporous membranes. The influence of the TiO2 particles on the crys...

Nanotubes have been shown to possess intriguing mass transport properties, and are being incorporated into polymeric membranes for molecular separations. Although models have been developed to predict the effective permeability and selectivity of composite membranes with non-spherical fillers, they only apply to fillers with isotropic transport properties. However, molecular transport in tubula...

• Ion-beam implantation of thin epitaxial palladium films with iron. Spinodal decomposition into ‘stable phases’ the palladium-iron system. Ferromagnetic composite formation. Multiple ferromagnetic resonances emerge consecutively temperature lowering. Lower coercivity iron-implanted against molecular-beam epitaxy grown ones. We report on formation dilute Pd 1− x Fe composites tunable magnetic p...

This paper describes the use of several methods of template stripping (TS) to produce ultraflat films of silver, gold, palladium, and platinum on both rigid and polymeric mechanical supports: a composite of glass and ultraviolet (UV)-curable adhesive (optical adhesive, OA), solder, a composite of poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) and OA, and bare OA. Silicon supporting its native oxide layer (Si/S...
