Abstract Flexible supercapacitors have gained significant attention in recent times due to their many advantages such as high specific capacitance, lightweight, long lifespan, energy density, flexibility, and high-power density. These benefits make them ideal for various applications industries. Copper oxide is particularly attractive an electrode material because of its theoretical low cost, e...

The corrosion inhibitive action of flower extracts of Clitoria ternata flower on mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was studied using weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and EIS measurements. The results obtained indicate that the extracts functioned as good inhibitors in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with extract concentration. The ads...

A practical anodic and cathodic curve intersection model, which consisted of an apparent anodic curve and an imaginary cathodic line, was proposed to explain multiple corrosion potentials occurred in potentiodynamic polarization curves of Fe-based glassy alloys in alkaline solution. The apparent anodic curve was selected from the measured anodic curves. The imaginary cathodic line was obtained ...

Electrochemical synthesis of poly ortho toludine (POTD) was achieved on Teflon coated cylindrical stainless steel electrodes with base diameter 2mm . Aniline in 2-propyl pentatonic acid solution was polymerized on the surface of stainless steel using cyclic voltametry technique. Adherent and red polymer films were obtained on the electrodes.. The corrosion inhibitive performance of POTD+2PPA , ...

in this study, the effects of forming method (extrusion) and environmental factors (solution ph and temperature) on the corrosion performance of az91 magnesium alloys were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and salt spray techniques. the polarization test results of the specimens showed that simple sh...

Nickel films of 150 nm thickness were deposited on 304 stainless steel and post annealed under flow of nitrogen at different temperatures. The prepared samples were corrosion tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 solution using potentiodynamic polarization technique. Crystallographic and morphological structure of the samples were analysed by X-ray diffraction XRD and atomic force microscopy AFM respectively b...

Silicon dioxide (SiO2) thin films are most commonly used insulating films in the fabrication of silicon-based integrated circuits (ICs) and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Several techniques with different processing environments have been investigated to deposit silicon dioxide films at temperatures down to room temperature. Anodic oxidation of silicon is one of the low temperature proc...
