Low temperature plasma assisted nit riding treatments of 316 stainless steel produce a complex layer constituted by tow different metastable f.c.c. solid solution denoted ( γ N1 and γ N2 ). About the formation of these double layers, different hypothesis was proposed in the literature. For verifying these hypotheses, the effects of differentes conditions such as nit riding temperature, cleaning...

as igm and iga-enriched preparations are needed to complete the immunotherapeutic spectrum, a simple procedure is described for the preparation of igm and iga enriched immunoglobulins. fraction iii which was prepared by cold ethanol fractionation was treated by octanoic acid followed by ethanol precipitation and ion-exchange chromatography using sephadex deae a-50 and 0.1 m tris-d.35m naci buff...

the main goal of this study is to investigate the capability of zeolites a and p synthesized from iranian natural clinoptilolite for uranium uptak. the removal of uranium(vi) from aqueous solution via ion exchange by zeolites in a single component system with various contact times,  temperatures and initial concentrations of uranium(vi) was investigated. the experimental results were fitted to ...

Conventional ion-selective electrodes with a liquid junction have the disadvantage of potential drift. All-solid-state ion-selective electrodes with solid contact in between the metal electrode and the ion-selective membrane offer high capacitance or conductance to enhance potential stability. Solution-casted chitosan/Prussian blue nanocomposite (ChPBN) was employed as the solid contact layer f...

We report the properties of an all-solid-state electrochromic ~EC! device that can be switched over a useful range of optical transmissions with voltages below 1 V. This switching voltage is smaller than required by other solid-state EC devices reported to date. We attribute the lower-than-normal switching voltage to the use of a thermally evaporated MgF2 thin film as the lithium ion conducting...

We demonstrate the use of a novel pulse (18)O-(16)O isotopic exchange technique for the rapid determination of the oxygen surface exchange rate of oxide ion conductors while simultaneously providing insight into the mechanism of the oxygen exchange reaction, which contributes to the efficient development of devices incorporating these solids, such as solid oxide fuel cells and oxygen transport ...

Storing energy harvested by triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) from ambient mechanical motion is still a great challenge for achieving low-cost and environmental benign power sources. Here, an all-solid-state Na-ion battery with safe and durable performance used for efficient storing pulsed energy harvested by the TENG is demonstrated. The solid-state sodium-ion batteries are charged by galva...

The realization of large powerful all-solid-state batteries is still hampered by the availability of environmentally friendly and low-cost Li ion conductors that can easily be produced on a large scale and with high reproducibility. Advanced solid electrolytes benefit from fast ion-selective transport and non-flammability, but they may have low electrochemical stability with respect to Li metal...
