Biocorrosion behavior of biodegradable nanocomposite fibers coated layer-by-layer on AM50 magnesium implant by Abdal-hay, Abdalla

“…The corrosion performance of coated and uncoated coupon samples was investigated by means of electrochemical measurements. The results showed that the AJS 3D membrane fiber layers, particularly the hybrid membrane layers containing a small amount of nHA (3wt.%), induce a higher biocorrosion resistance and effectively decrease the initial degradation rate compared with the neat AM50 coupon samples. …”

Inner sphere oxidation of N,N′-ethylenebis(isonitrosoacetyleacetoneimine)copper(II) by N-bromosuccinimide in aqueous weakly acidic solutions by Salih, Isam M.

“…The mechanism of the title reaction is consistent with an inner sphere mechanism in which a pre-equilibrium step precedes the electron transfer step. The overall rate law is represented by Eq. (2) where [CuIL]t and K 1 represent the total copper(II) complex concentration and the pre- equilibrium formation constant, respectively. d [CuL+]/dt = {(ko+k₁ [H+]) [SBr] [CuL]}/(1 + K₁ [SBr])…”

Development of CuAg/Cu2O nanoparticles on carbon nitride surface for methanol oxidation and selective conversion of carbon dioxide into formate by Nazir, Roshan

“…The lower reduction potential of copper ([Cu+(aq) + e− → Cu(s)], + 0.52 eV) compared to Ag ([Ag+(aq) + e− → Ag(s)], +0.80 eV) makes Cu(0) easily exchangeable by Ag+ ions via galvanic exchange without applying any external bias. In a two-step process, the Cu NPs are synthesized first on CN surface by adsorbing Cu2+ precursors and reducing them by NaBH4. …”

Effects of rutile-TiO2 nanoparticles on accelerated weathering degradation of poly(Lactic Acid) by Antunes, A.

“…The effect of accelerated weathering on poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and a PLA nanocomposite with rutile titanium (IV) dioxide (rutile-TiO2) was investigated. The accelerated weathering test applied consecutive steps of ultraviolet (UV) (at 340 nm and 0.76Wm-2 irradiance) and moisture at 50 C for 2000 h, following the ASTM D4329 standard. …”
