long–term stability and oxidation resistance of aisi 439 ferritic stainless steel used as interconnects in solid oxide fuel cells can be improved by use of a protective coating. in this study the pack cementation method was employed to coat aisi 439 ferritic stainless steel with manganese. isothermal oxidation was conducted at 800 ºc for 200 hours in static air to investigate the role of coatin...

Manganese is an essential trace element required for normal development and bodily functions. However, exposure of the brain to excessive amounts of manganese results in neurotoxicity. Although previous studies examining manganese neurotoxicity have focused on neuronal injury, especially direct injury to dopaminergic neurons, the effects of manganese-induced neurotoxicity on glial cells have no...

Prelithiated, electrospun α-Fe2O3 nanofibers display an exceptional cycleability when it is paired with commercial LiMn2O4 cathode in full-cell assembly. The performance of such α-Fe2O3 nanofibers is mainly due to the presence of unique morphology with porous structure, appropriate mass balance, and working potential. Also, synthesis technique cannot be ruled out for the performance.

manganese oxide nanoparticles (mn3o4-nps) were prepared using precipitation method. the prepared nanoparticles were characterized by a number of techniques, including x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and fourier transforms infra red (ft-ir) spectroscopy. the xrd pattern showed that the structure of mn3o4-nps was tetrago...

The photochemical oxidation of Fe(2+) -hydroxide complexes dissolved in anoxic Precambrian oceans has been suggested as a mechanism to explain the deposition of Banded Iron Formations (BIFs). Photochemical studies have not yet addressed the low levels of manganese in many of these deposits, which probably precipitated from solutions bearing similar concentrations of Fe2+ and Mn2+. Depositiona...

-Phenol (benzenol) oxidation by three synthetic manganese oxides (buserite, manganite, and feitknechtite) has been studied in aerated, aqueous, acidified suspensions. The rate of reaction was pH dependent. Oxidation was greatly enhanced below pH 4, when diphenoquinone and p-benzoquinone were identified as the first products. Initial reaction rate was correlated with standard reduction potential...
