We successfully obtained Ni–B and Ni–B–Ce coatings with and without sonication on low-carbon steel (Q235) through electroless plating with the deposition time of 60[Formula: see text]min. The surface morphology and elemental composition of the coatings were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The 11[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m thick sonicated Ni–B–Ce (Son-Ni–B–Ce) coating is uniform with the composition of Ni 87.1%, B 6.2% and Ce 6.6%. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements implied a typical broaden peak around 44∘, considered as amorphous structure which was confirmed by selected area electron diffraction pattern (SAED). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed a typical circular pit of Ni–B–Ce coating and Son-Ni–B–Ce coating. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed the chemical status of coating components. The mechanical and corrosion resistance properties were determined by Vickers hardness tester, potentiodynamic polarization (Tafel) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 3.5[Formula: see text]wt. % NaCl solution. As a result, the Son-Ni–B–Ce coating revealed the optimum hardness (956[Formula: see text]HV), minimum roughness [Formula: see text] (92.38[Formula: see text]nm) and excellent corrosion resistance (3.65[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Acm[Formula: see text] among all coatings.

Sulfide hemimorphite can be depressed by Fe3+ during flotation. In this study, the depression mechanism was studied by microflotation, inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry, local electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (LEIS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Flotation test results suggested that sulfated hemimorphite can be depressed by Fe3+ across the entire pH range. LEIS, adsorption analysis, and XPS indicated that S species were adsorbed on hemimorphite as ZnS. The sulfide film was attenuated and no adsorbed Fe species were found after treatment with Fe3+. The results indicate that Fe3+ reacts with the ZnS film, which decreases the number S species, and this leads to hemimorphite depression.

A new corrosion inhibitor called ATP-6-AHA was elaborated, and its inhibition action on S235 low carbon steel in 3.5% sodium chloride (NaCl) was investigated using gravimetry, potentiodynamic polarization (PP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The release of ecofriendly 6-aminohexanoic acid (6-AHA) from its established aluminum tri-polyphosphate intercalate (ATP-6-AHA) is investigated using electrochemical and surface characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). The results revealed that ATP-6-AHA is a good inhibitor, with an inhibition efficiency of approximately 70%. The efficiency is related to the passivation of a steel surface by a phosphate protective layer due to the synergistic effect of 6-AHA, as confirmed by a steel surface analysis conducted using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This study suggests that the intercalation of 6-AHA as a sustainable organic molecule within the interlayer spaces of aluminum tri-polyphosphate can well serve as a good flaky inhibitor for protecting S235 low-carbon steel from corrosion in 3.5% NaCl.

ABSTRACTCatalysts containing tungsten and nickel oxides are important in hydrodesulfurization (HDS), hydrogénation (HY), and steam reforming of hydrocarbons. A series of W/Ni/Al2O3 catalysts was prepared by two different methods: (1) coprecipitation of nickel and aluminium hydroxicarbonate from their nitrates, followed by calcination and impregnation of tungsten; (2) precipitation of boehmite from aluminium nitrate, followed by impregnations of nickel, firstly, and tungsten. The nickel content was kept constant, while the amount of tungsten varied from 2.5 to 15.5 wt-%. The resulting oxides were characterized by inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). ICP and AAS were used to determine the W, Ni, and Al concentrations. XRD detected two phases: NiO and NiAl2O4 (no phase containing metallic tungsten was detected). Increasing the amount of W, the quantity of NiAl2O4 rose, the quantity of NiO decreased, and the particle size of NiO enlarged. The TPR profiles presented three peaks: one at about 1000 °C, associated to a very stable phase; for the samples prepared by coprecipitation, the other two peaks corresponded to “free NiO” and a nonstoichiometric aluminate. For the samples prepared by impregnation, those peaks corresponded to NiO and NiAl2O4. XPS identified Al2O3, NiAl2O4, and Al2(WO4)3 for both preparation methods. Increasing the amount of tungsten in the impregnated samples, NiWO4 was also observed.

Chromium pre-treatments of metal have been replaced by silane pre-treatments as more environmental friendly option. Nanoparticles can be added in the silane sol-gel network have been reported to improve corrosion resistance. In this work, the electrochemical corrosion resistance of low carbon steel coated with hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel film filled with nanoparticles was evaluated. The sol-gel films have been synthesized from 3-glycidoxy-propyl-trimethoxy-silane (3-GPTMS) and tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) precursors. These films have been impregnated with 300 ppm of silica or alumina nanoparticles. The electrochemical behavior of the coated steel was evaluated by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Equivalent circuit modeling, used for quantifying the EIS measurements showed that sol-gel films containing silica nanoparticles improved the barrier properties of the silane coating. The silica nanoparticle-containing films showed highest initial pore resistance over the five days of immersion in 0.05M NaCl.

Graphene oxide (GO) sheet and ultrasonic field (UF) were successfully employed to produce Ni–B/GO and UF–Ni–B/GO composite coatings on Q235 mild steel by electroless plating. The composite coatings’ structure and surface morphology were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Results showed that GO was successfully co-deposited in the Ni–B alloy. Moreover, UF–Ni–B/GO composite coatings have smoother surface and thicker cross-section than others. The microhardness and corrosion resistance of the sample coatings were determined using Vickers hardness tests, Tafel electrochemical tests and electrochemical impedance measurements (EIS) in 3.5[Formula: see text]wt.% NaCl solution to receive the effect of GO and ultrasonic. The findings indicated that UF–Ni–B/GO exhibited optimum hardness (856[Formula: see text]HV) and enhanced corrosion resistance (6.38 [Formula: see text][Formula: see text] over the Ni–B and Ni–B/GO coatings. Due to these interesting properties of the coating, it could be used as a protective material in the automotive and aerospace industries for parts of machines that were manipulated in high temperature and corrosive environments.

The incorporation of metal heteroatoms into zeolites is an effective modification strategy for enhancing their catalytic performance. Herein, for the first time we report a generalized methodology for inserting metal heteroatoms (such as Sn, Fe, Zn, and Co) into the layered zeolite precursor RUB-36 via interlayer expansion by using the corresponding metal acetylacetate salt. Through this generalized methodology, Sn-JHP-1, Fe-JHP-1, Zn-JHP-1 and Co-JHP-1 zeolites could be successfully prepared by the reaction of RUB-36 and corresponding metal acetylacetate salt at 180 °C for 24 h in the presence of HCl solution. As a typical example, Sn-JHP-1 and calcined Sn-JHP-1 (Sn-JHP-2) zeolite is well characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), inductively coupled plasma (ICP), N2 sorption, temperature-programmed-desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques, which confirm the expansion of adjacent interlayers and thus the incorporation of isolated Sn sites within the zeolite structure. Notably, the obtained Sn-JHP-2 zeolite sample shows enhanced catalytic performance in the conversion of glucose to levulinic acid (LA) reaction.

Finishing Process

In the present work, the friction surfacing process was applied to manufacture aluminum alloy (AA6351) coatings on low carbon steel (AISI 1020) substrates. After friction surfacing the AA6351 deposited coatings were submitted to two finishing process in order to adjust surface roughness: milling and milling followed by sanding. The corrosion behavior of the two finishing process was compared with the as-deposited condition in order to determine the influence of surface roughness on the corrosion resistance of friction surfacing coatings. The corrosion behavior was examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization in a 3.5wt.%NaCl solution containing naturally dissolved O2. The results obtained indicated that the elevated surface roughness observed in the as-deposited condition led to relatively lower corrosion resistance in comparison, with lower values for polarization resistance and more anodic corrosion potential.

We have successfully incorporated iron species into mesoporous aluminosilicates (AlSBA15) using a simple mechanochemical milling method. The catalysts were characterized by nitrogen physisorption, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), pyridine (PY) and 2,6-dimethylpyridine (DMPY) pulse chromatography titration, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The catalysts were tested in the N-alkylation reaction of aniline with benzyl alcohol for imine production. According to the results, the iron sources, acidity of catalyst and reaction conditions were important factors influencing the reaction. The catalyst showed excellent catalytic performance, achieving 97% of aniline conversion and 96% of imine selectivity under optimized conditions.

Luminescence behaviors and morphology of Eu3+doped hydroxyapatite synthesized under different pH values were well investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) (ICP–PLASMA 1000), and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Results revealed that With pH values increased from 6.5 to 10.0, the morphology of nano-Eu:HA particles changes from rod particles to equiaxed particles. The actual doping concentration and aspect ratio of Eu3+-doped HA decreased with the increasing of pH value. At the same time, the fluorescence intensity also tends to weakly lower with the increasing of pH value, which indicated that the luminescence properties mainly depended on the actual Eu3+doping concentration, the influences of morphology on the luminescence properties were slight.

Oxidation Of Alcohols

A one-pot simple and efficient synthetic route for the synthesis of Au-loaded Fe2O3 nanoparticles was developed, and this material's photocatalytic activity for visible light assisted oxidation of alcohols and degradation of organic dye were studied. As-synthesized nanostructured catalyst was characterised by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), SEM-mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm (BET), and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). It was observed that 5–10 nm Au-nanoparticles supported on 10–80 nm Fe2O3 shows boomerang-shaped nanoparticle. Gold loading of 1 wt% shows high conversion and selectivity towards the target product aldehyde. The synthesized nanomaterial also proved to be an excellent photocatalyst for degradation of organic dyes such as methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB). The catalyst proved to be noteworthy as it does not loss in its catalytic activity even after five cycles of reuse.
