The immobilization of CuS on the surface of poly (ethylene terephtalate) (PET) fibres was carried out by the functionalization of PET fibres with chitosan (CS), followed by the chemical deposition method. Crosslinked chitosan with NH2 functionality was used as a chelator to absorb copper ions, which can successfully initiate CuS deposition in the following chemical deposition stage. The CuS-loaded fibres were characterised by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and thermal gravimetry, respectively. The properties of tensile and conductivity were also investigated. The lowest surface resistance 42 Ω/cm of the treated PET fibres was obtained when the CS concentration was 1.0%.

As additive, economic and low resistivity material was useful in the fields of electrostatic prevention and electromagnetism screening. Antimony-doped tin oxide(Sb:SnO2)/talc composite was prepared for this purpose via a modified chemical deposition method using economic and natural talc as matrix. Effects of hydrolysis temperature, pH value, doping concentration of antimony, proportion of Sb:SnO2 to talc, calcination temperature and time on the resistivity of the composite powder were investigated. The construction of Sb:SnO2/talc conductive composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The resistivity of Sb:SnO2/talc composite prepared at the optimum conditions decreased to 3.0×103 Ω•cm, at the same time its whiteness was greatly improved.

A polypyrrole-modified bimetallic electrode composed of Pd-Ag on a Ti substrate (Pd-Ag/PPY/Ti) was successfully prepared via a chemical deposition method, and was applied to the electrocatalytic hydrodechlorination of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) in aqueous solution. The electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Various influences on the dechlorination efficiency of 4-chlorophenol, including applied current, initial pH value, and temperature, were studied. The dechlorination efficiency of 4-CP reached 94% within 120 min under the optimum conditions, i.e., a dechlorination current of 6 mA, an initial pH of 2.30, and a temperature of 303 K. The apparent activation energy of the dechlorination of 4-CP by the Pd-Ag/PPY/Ti electrode was calculated to be 49.6 kJ/mol. The equivalent conversion rate constant kPd was 0.63 L.gPd−1·min−1, which was higher than the findings presented in comparable literature. Thus, a highly effective bimetallic electrode with promising application prospects and low Pd loading was fabricated.

This paper presents the obtaining of copper sulfide CuS (covelite) from Cu(CH3COO)2.H2O and thioacetamide (TAA) system. The reaction was conducted in presence or absence of sodium-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (Na-AOT). The effects of various reaction parameters on the size and on the shape of nanoparticles have been examined. CuS obtained was characterized by X ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, TEM � transmission electron microscopy and SAED selected area electron diffraction. The influence of surfactant to the shape and size of CuS (covellite) nanocrystals was established. The size of the nanocrystals varied from 10-60 nm depending on the reaction conditions such as quantity of surfactant.

Copper sulfide layers were formed on polyamide PA 6 surface using the sorption-diffusion method. Polymer samples were immersed for 4 and 5 h in 0.15 mol⋅  solutions and acidified with HCl (0.1 mol⋅) at . After washing and drying, the samples were treated with Cu(I) salt solution. The samples were studied by UV/VIS, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods. All methods confirmed that on the surface of the polyamide film a layer of copper sulfide was formed. The copper sulfide layers are indirect band-gap semiconductors. The values of are 1.25 and 1.3 eV for 4 h and 5 h sulfured PA 6 respectively. Copper XPS spectra analyses showed Cu(I) bonds only in deeper layers of the formed film, while in sulfur XPS S 2p spectra dominating sulfide bonds were found after cleaning the surface with ions. It has been established by the XRD method that, beside , the layer contains as well. For PA 6 initially sulfured 4 h, grain size forchalcocite, , was  nm and fordjurleite, , it was 54.17 nm. The sheet resistance of the obtained layer varies from 6300 to 102 .

In recent years, polymer clay nanocomposites have been attracting considerable interests in polymers science because of their advantages. There are many scientists who researched about this kind of material and demonstrated that when polymer matrix was added to little weight of clay, properties were enhanced considerably. Because clay is a hydrophilic substance so it is difficult to use as filler in polymer matrix having hydrophobic nature, so clay needs to be modified to become compatible with polymer. In this study, poly(ethylene oxide) was used as a new modifier for clay to replace some traditional ionic surfactants such as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary alkyl ammonium or alkylphosphonium cations having the following disadvantages: disintegrate at high temperature, catalyze polymer degradation, and make nanoproducts colorific, and so forth. In order to evaluate modifying effect of poly(ethylene oxide), modified clay products were characterize d by X-ray spectrum. Then organoclay was used to prepare nanocomposite based on unsaturated polyester. Morphology and properties of nanocomposites were measure d by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, tensile strength, and thermal stability. The results showed that clay galleries changed to intercalated state in the nanocomposites. Properties of nanocomposites were improved a lot when the loading of the organoclay was used at 1 phr.

ABSTRACTA series of electroactive spinel compounds, LiMn2-xCuxO4 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) has been studied by crystallographic, spectroscopie and electrochemical methods and by electron-microscopy. These LiMn2-xCuxO4 spinels are nearly identical in structure to cubic LiMn2O4 and successfully undergo reversible Li intercalation. The electrochemical data show slight shifts to higher voltage for the delithiation reaction that normally occurs at 4.1 V in standard Li1−xMn2O4 electrodes (1 ≥ x ≥ 0) corresponding to the oxidation of Mn3+ to Mn4+. The data also show a remarkable reversible electrochemical process at 4.9 V which is attributed to the oxidation of Cu2+ to Cu3+. The inclusion of Cu in the spinel structure enhances the electrochemical stability of these materials upon cycling. The initial capacity of LiMn2-xCuxO4 spinels decreases with increasing x from 130 mAh/g in LiMn2O4 (x=0) to 70 mAh/g in “LiMn1.5Cu0.5O4”(x=0.5). Although the powder X-ray diffraction pattern of “LiMn1.5Cu0.5 O4” shows a single-phase spinel product, neutron diffraction data show a small, but significant quantity of an impurity phase, the composition and structure of which could not be identified. X-ray absorption spectroscopy was used to gather information about the oxidation states of the manganese and copper ions. The composition of the spinel component in the LiMn1.5Cu0.5O4 was determined from X-ray diffraction and XANES data to be Li1.01Mn1.67Cu0.32O4 suggesting, to a best approximation, that the impurity in the sample was a lithium-copper-oxide phase.

A method is described to study the structural behavior of solids subjected to various temperature programs. The instrumentation consists of a high- or low-temperature device, a temperature programmer, a system for energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction and a data processing and storing unit and allows the fully automatic acquisition of series of spectra. A strong data reduction is performed by summing up difference diagrams. Plotting the resulting values versus temperature yields curves comparable to those obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) or thermal gravimetry (TG). A kinetic evaluation as used in the case of DSC or TG curves is possible. The method was applied to study the thermal behavior of a mixture of ammonium nitrate with zinc oxide. The curves indicate the strong anisotropic thermal expansion of the ammonium nitrate phase IV below 323 K, its transition to phase II at 325–329 K and the solid-state reaction with zinc oxide within the temperature interval of 353–383 K.
