Implementation of the Chicot-Lesage Composite Hardness Model in a Determination of Absolute Hardness of Copper Coatings Obtained by the Electrodeposition Processes
(Metals, 2021)
The influence of various electrolysis parameters, such as the type of cathode, composition of the electrolyte and electrolysis time, on the morphology, structure and hardness of copper coatings has been investigated. ...
Recovery of Vanadium (V) Oxyanions by a Magnetic Macroporous Copolymer Nanocomposite Sorbent
(Metals, 2021)
An amino-functionalized magnetic macroporous copolymer of glycidyl methacrylate (GM) and ethylene glycol (E) dimethacrylate (m-poly(GME)-deta) was synthesized, fully characterized, and used to investigate the adsorption ...
Structure and Strength of Isothermally Heat-Treated Medium Carbon Ti-V Microalloyed Steel
(Metals, 2021)
Isothermal transformation characteristics of a medium carbon Ti-V microalloyed steel were investigated using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and by ...
Microstructural and Cavitation Erosion Behavior of the CuAlNi Shape Memory Alloy
(Metals, 2021)
Microstructural and cavitation erosion testing was carried out on Cu-12.8Al-4.1Ni (wt. %) shape memory alloy (SMA) samples produced by continuous casting followed by heat treatment consisting of solution annealing at 885 ...
Selenate adsorption from water using the hydrous iron oxide-impregnated hybrid polymer
(MDPI, Basel, 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 ...
Kinetics of Chalcopyrite Leaching by Hydrogen Peroxide in Sulfuric Acid
(MDPI, Basel, 2019)
In ores, chalcopyrite is usually associated with other sulfide minerals, such as sphalerite, galena, and pyrite, in a dispersed form, with complex mineralogical structures. Concentrates obtained by flotation of such ores ...
Advances in Thermochemical Synthesis and Characterization of the Prepared Copper/Alumina Nanocomposites
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
This paper presents thermochemical synthesis of copper/alumina nanocomposites in a Cu-Al(2)O(3)system with 1-2.5 wt.% of alumina and their characterization, which included: transmission electron microscopy: focused ion ...
Synthesis of Silica Particles Using Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis Method
(Metals, 2021)
Silica has sparked strong interest in hydrometallurgy, catalysis, the cement industry, and paper coating. The synthesis of silica particles was performed at 900 degrees C using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) method. ...
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 ...
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, ...
