Abstrac t Pulsed eddy current (PEC) is a new technique of non-destructive material evaluation (NDE). In comparison with other eddy current techniques, PEC uses pulsed excitation that is characterized by wide frequency content and thus the response carries more complex information about a tested object. PEC method is used in many NDE common applications such as inspection of defects, measurement...

The optical, morphological and photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of transition metal oxide semiconductors are important to understand their influence on water oxidation performance. Herein, we provide experimental evidences for a better understanding of the factors that dictate the interactions of Sn-diffusion doping on the PEC properties of Fe2O3 photoanodes fabricated at high temperature ...

Abstract Special propylene-ethylene copolymer (PEC) and polypropylene (PP) fiber grade materials were blended through the melt-compounding method to prepare PP/PEC blends in varying proportions. Subsequently, further analysis was carried out on crystallinity, dispersibility, mechanical properties flexibility of blends. The results haven shown that PEC is uniformly dispersed PP matrix, whereas s...

This article describes the growth of Cu oxides films using reactive sputtering and application of CuO photocathode in semitransparent photoelectrochemical cell (PEC). In this data article, physical, optical and electrical...

inhalation delivery of aerosolized antibacterials is preferred over conventional methods of delivery for targeting lung infection. the present study is concerned with the development and characterization of a novel, spray dried, aerosolized, chitosan polyelectrolyte complex (pec) based microparticles containing antibacterials for the treatment of lung infections.chitosan polyelectrolyte complex...

Corrosion is one of the important factors in equipment failures. Wall thinning can be used to evaluate corrosion conditions. However, most of equipments are coated with insulations in order to elevate the energy efficiency. Pulsed eddy current (PEC) testing technique can be used to measure wall thinning through insulation. But when the insulation outside is wrapped with galvanized steel, PEC si...

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting offers a clean pathway to renewable and sustainable energy in the near future. The key to improving the efficiency of PEC devices is the ability to find materials with suitable optoelectronic properties, and identifying, then overcoming their limitations. In this paper, we explore the photoelectrochemical performance of CuWO4 photoanodes for solar wate...

Tantalum cobalt nitride photocatalysts were prepared using a simple drop coating method on a Ta foil substrate followed by thermal ammonia treatment, and their photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties for water oxidation under visible light were studied. The resulting Ta0.9Co0.1Nx films showed a photocurrent of ca. 1.5 mA/cm (12 times higher than that of Ta3N5) under 100 mW/cm visible light irradi...

The present study is imported to solve two critical problems we face in our daily life which are microbial pollution and colon cancer. One pot green synthesis of a water soluble polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) between cationic polysaccharide as N,N,N-trimethyl chitosan chloride (TMC) and anionic polymer as poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) in presence of silver nanoparticles to yield (TMC/PAA/Ag) nanocom...

Cuprous oxide (Cu2O) films were grown by electrodeposition in aqueous solutions of varying pH. The effect of bath pH on morphology, structural, and photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of Cu2O films was investigated. XRD showed that all prepared films were polycrystalline Cu2O, without formation of competing phases such as CuO and Cu. The film grown in the solution with a pH of 8 is made up of...
