Methacrylate-Based Polymeric Sorbents for Recovery of Metals from Aqueous Solutions
(MDPI, 2022)
The industrialization and urbanization expansion have increased the demand for precious and rare earth elements (REEs). In addition, environmental concerns regarding the toxic effects of heavy metals on living organisms ...
Dispersive Solid–Liquid Microextraction Based on the Poly(HDDA)/Graphene Sorbent Followed by ICP-MS for the Determination of Rare Earth Elements in Coal Fly Ash Leachate
(MDPI, 2022)
A dispersive solid-phase microextraction (DSPME) sorbent consisting of poly(1,6-hexanedi-ol diacrylate)-based polymer microspheres, with embedded graphene microparticles (poly(HDDA)/g-raphene), was synthesized by microfluidic ...
Selenate Adsorption from Water Using the Hydrous Iron Oxide-Impregnated Hybrid Polymer
(Metals, 2020)
Hybrid adsorbent, based on the cross-linked copolymer impregnated with hydrous iron oxide, was applied for the first time for Se(VI) adsorption from water. The influence of the initial solution pH, selenate concentration ...
Morphology, Structure and Mechanical Properties of Copper Coatings Electrodeposited by Pulsating Current (PC) Regime on Si(111)
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Copper electrodeposition on (111)-oriented Si substrate was performed by the pulsating current (PC) regime at various average current densities in the range of 15-70 mAcm(-2), obtained by varying either the frequency (30, ...
Transformation of Iron (III) Nitrate from an Aerosol by Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis and Hydrogen Reduction
(MDPI, 2023)
Due to their unique properties, iron nanoparticles find diverse applications across various
fields, including catalysis, electronics, wastewater treatment, and energy storage. Nano-iron particles
are mostly sub-micrometer ...
Black Pine (Pinus nigra) Essential Oil as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel
(MDPI, 2023)
In this work, the essential oil of black pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold) was used for the first time as a natural, ecological, and sustainable corrosion inhibitor for the acid cleaning of carbon steel. The essential oil ...
Exposure Factors in Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal(loid)s in Soil and Sediment
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) play an important role in economic development since they are used in various branches of industry. However, all industrial activities emit HMs into the environment, where they are no longer useful ...
Application of the Composite Hardness Models in the Analysis of Mechanical Characteristics of Electrolytically Deposited Copper Coatings: The Effect of the Type of Substrate
(Metals, 2021)
The mechanical characteristics of electrochemically deposited copper coatings have been examined by application of two hardness composite models: the Chicot-Lesage (C-L) and the Cheng-Gao (C-G) models. The 10, 20, 40 and ...
Application of the Flotation Tailings as an Alternative Material for an Acid Mine Drainage Remediation: A Case Study of the Extremely Acidic Lake Robule (Serbia)
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Flotation tailings rich in carbonate minerals from the tailings deposit of the copper mine Majdanpek (Serbia) were applied for neutralization of the water taken from the extremely acidic Lake Robule (Bor, Serbia). Tests ...
Morphology and Structure of Electrolytically Synthesized Tin Dendritic Nanostructures
(MDPI, 2022)
The formation of tin dendritic nanostructures by electrolysis from the alkaline electrolytehas been investigated. Morphology and structure of Sn dendrites produced applying both potentiostatic and galvanostatic regimes of ...
