Standards of low electrolytic conductivity were developed to satisfy the demands of the U.S. Navy and American industry for the measurement of high quality water. The criteria for the selection of appropriate solvent and solutes, based on the principles of equivalent conductivity and Onsager's limiting law, are described. Dilute solutions of potassium chloride and benzoic acid in 30 % n-propano...

Title of Document: RELIABILITY EVALUATION OF LIQUID AND POLYMER ALUMINUM ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS 45BAnshul Shrivastava, Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.), 2014 Directed By: Professor Michael Pecht, Department of Mechanical Engineering Liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitors are known for their reliability problems. They are considered as the weakest link in the power electronics system. The liquid e...

I t has been recognised that a major factor which affects the current efficiency in the commercial electrolytic cells for magnesium is the wettability of the cathode surface with respect to magnesium and the ability of the metal deposited to grow into a considerable size on cathode surface before getting released from it. Factors affecting these and studies to improve the wettability have alrea...

plasma electrolytic oxidation (peo) is the new, environmentally and cost-effective method for coating the metals. this method vastly has been studied for coating aluminum, titanium and magnesium and their alloys and recently for steel. in present study, ck45 steel samples were coated by peo method in order to improve corrosion resistance. during this process specimens were immerged in carbonate...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of cerebellum in immunomodulation as cerebellum was thought traditionally to play an important role in voluntary motor activities. Rats weighing about 200-220 gm were subjected to bilateral electrolytic lesion of fastigial nucleus and following immune parameters were assessedleucocyte migration inhibition test, foot pad thickness, antibod...

BACKGROUND Ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) plays a major role in food intake, obesity and energy homeostasis. There is a report of gender difference in energy balance with increased vulnerability of males to cardiac disease. PURPOSE Body metabolism is greatly influenced by the diet we eat and some of the blood parameters like plasma glucose, insulin, lipid profile and thyroid profile depict a...

Converging lines of evidence point to the involvement of neurons of the centrally projecting Edinger-Westphal nucleus (EWcp) containing the neuropeptide Urocortin-1 (Ucn1) in excessive ethanol (EtOH) intake and EtOH sensitivity. Here, we expanded these previous findings by using a continuous-access, two-bottle choice drinking paradigm (3%, 6%, and 10% EtOH vs. tap water) to compare EtOH intake ...

The effects of the presence of copper on the photooxidation of phenol and 4-chlorophenol and of the presence of the phenols on the recovery of copper by electrodeposition are studied in three systems: a photolytic cell in the presence and absence of TiO2 as a catalyst or H2O2 as an oxidant; an electrolytic cell and a combined photolytic-electrolytic system. The optimum system for the simultaneo...
