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).…”

Corrosion behavior of API-X120 carbon steel alloy in a GTL F-T process water environment at low COD concentration by Ewis, Dina

“…Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were used to determine the carbon steel corrosion rate under temperatures ranging from 293 to 323 K and rotation speed of 0, 500, 1000, 2000 rpm when the immersion time was 0.5, 1, and 2 h. The corrosion rate increased with temperature and rotation speed but decreased with immersion time. …”

Resistive room temperature LPG sensor based on a graphene/CdO nanocomposite by Goutham S.

“…The CdO/graphene composite was deposited as a film on interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) which then were used for chemiresistive sensing of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) by using a four probe technique. A Resistivity decreases significantly upon exposure to a LPG. The electrical resistance measurement at a constant bias voltage of 0.5 V. …”
