Aluminum nitride (AlN) reinforced electrodeposited Ni-B nanocomposite coatings by Radwan, A. Bahgat

“…The potentiodynamic analysis exhibited that the protection efficiency (PE%) of Ni–B coating is ~20%, which increased to ~53% and ~73% by addition of AlN nanoparticles of 0.6 and 1.2 g L−1, respectively. The corrosion resistance could be credited to the presence of inactive and insulating AlN nanoparticles that filled the existing defects in Ni–B matrix and subsequently decreased the active area exposed to the corrosive electrolyte (3.5 wt.% NaCl).…”

Influence of nitrogen doping on the electrocatalytic activity of Ni-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation by Barakat, Nasser A.M.

“…However, the electrochemical measurements indicated that the content of the urea in the initial electrospun solution should be optimized as the results showed that the best nickel surface activation as well as the maximum observed current density can be achieved when the urea content is kept at 5 wt%. Typically, the observed current densities using 1.0 M urea (in 1 M KOH) were 3.15, 29.7, 13.75, 47.55, 14.13 and 9.85 mA/cm2 for the nanofibers obtained from electrospun solutions having 0, 1, 2, 5, 7 and 9 wt% urea, respectively. …”
