Incorporation of saccharin molecules has been studied during the galvanostatic deposition of 2.45 T CoFe alloys. The results indicate that the incorporation rate is strongly dependent on the concentration of saccharin in the plating solution. This dependence showed a pronounced maximum at Csac = 0.12 g L −1, which is a result with significant practical implications. A simple physical model was ...

A long cycle-life, high-voltage supercapacitor featuring an activated carbon//poly(3methylthiophene) hybrid configuration with N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ionic liquid, a solvent-free green electrolyte, was developed. The cyclability of a laboratory scale cell with electrode mass loading sized for practical uses was tested at 60 °C over 16,000 galvanostatic ...

The electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole (Py) in aqueous KNO3 solutions using Austenitic stainless steel electrodes by galvanostatic, potentiostatic and potentiodynamic methods was studied. Chronoamperometric experiments show different behavior of the current with time. Correspondingly, I-tx plots were made giving better fitting for x =3/2 suggesting a progressive nucleation with three-dim...

The inhibiting effects of some newly synthesized Schiff bases on the corrosion of Al-Pure in 1.0 M HCl have been studied by means of the chemical and electrochemical methods. The Schiff bases m-Chloroaniline-N-benzylidene (m-CANB), p-Chloroaniline–N-benzylidene (p-CANB), Benzylamine-N-(p-methoxy benzylidene) (BANPMB) and 2-Phenylethylamine-N-(p-methoxy benzylidene) (2PANPMB) were synthesized fr...

Bulk nanocrystalline Sn3N4 powders were synthesised by a two step ammonolysis process followed by washing with dilute acid. Their performance as Li-ion and Na-ion battery negative electrodes was assessed by galvanostatic cycling in half cells vs. the metal, giving good performance in both cases and remarkable stability in the sodium cells. The effect of carboxymethyl cellulose and sodium algina...

The inhibitive and adsorptive properties of Sesmum indicum eco-friendly oil for stainless steel corrosion in hydrochloric acid was investigated using weight loss technique as well as electrochemical technique. The result has proved that the oil is excellent inhibitor for stainless steel in hydrochloric acid. The inhibition efficiency of oil for stainless steel increased with increase the amount...

A simple and cost effective hydrothermal method has been done for the synthesis of MoS2 and MoS2/rGO nanocomposites. The prepared MoS2/rGO composite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM which revealed the formation and as well as the morphological scenario of MoS2/rGO nanocomposite. Pure MoS2 and MoS2/rGO nanocomposite show 3D hierarchical flowery architecture where rGO nanosheets were inter...
