Polarization curves in the ohmic controlled electrodeposition of metals
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
The conditions under which ohmic controlled metal electrodeposition occurs are discussed using a simple mathematical model. it is shown that ohmic controlled electrodeposition can be operative if the value of the exchange ...
Comparative study of cu(2+) adsorption on a zeolite, a clay and a diatomite from Serbia
(Applied Clay Science, 2009)
The adsorption of a zeolite, clay and diatomite from Serbia toward aqueous Cu2+ ions was studied, at different pH. The adsorbents were characterized with respect to phase composition, specific surface area and point of ...
Effect of different fermentation parameters on bioethanol production from corn meal hydrolyzates by free and immobilized cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
BACKGROUND: Bioethanol produced from renewable biomass, such as corn meal, is a biofuel that is both renewable and environmentally friendly. Significant scientific and technological investments will be needed to achieve ...
Synthesis and characterization of MoOx-Pt/C and TiOx-Pt/C nano-catalysts for oxygen reduction
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was studied at carbon supported MoOx-Pt/C and TiOx-Pt nanocatalysts in 0.5 mol dm(-3) HClO4 solution, at 25 degrees C. The MoOx-Pt/C and TiOx-Pt/C catalysts were prepared by the polyole ...
A case study on the effect of thermal residual stresses on the crack-driving force in linear-elastic bimaterials
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The effect of thermal residual stresses in bimaterial structure with initial crack located near a sharp interface is discussed in this paper. Bimaterial compact tension (CT) specimen is used in the analysis, and the residual ...
The origin of high activity of Pt-Au surfaces in the formic acid oxidation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
We have investigated the oxidation of HCOOH on Au-modified Pt (Au"Pt) and Pt-modified Au (Pt")/Au) electrodes to establish the role of the ensemble and the electronic effect in the catalysis of this reaction. The surfaces ...
Ultraviolet Protection Factor of Gray-state Plain Cotton Knitted Fabrics
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2009)
The protection provided by clothing against ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been the subject of considerable recent research. However, a lack of investigations concerned with the influence of yarn properties on UV protection ...
