electrochemical properties of various rock-shaped-cuo/graphite (g) composites and monoclinic structure cuo nanoparticles as the cathode versus a zinc plate as the anode in a 4m naoh electrolyte were elucidated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and chronopotentiometry (cp) in a two electrode configuration cell. various values of g 9, 16 and 28 wt% were prepared and studied as catho...

A new electrochemical model has been carefully established to explain the carbonation behavior of cement mortar, and the model has been validated by the experimental results. In fact, it is shown by this study that the electrochemical impedance behavior of mortars varies in the process of carbonation. With the cement/sand ratio reduced, the carbonation rate reveals more remarkable. The carbonat...

The effect of chloride ions concentration on the electrochemical behavior of AISI 410 stainless steel in the simulated concrete pore (0.1 M NaOH + 0.1 M KOH) solution was investigated by various electrochemical methods such as Potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Potentiodynamic polarization curves revealed that increasing chlori...

The corrosion and cell viability behaviors of nanostructured, nickel-free stainless steel implants were studied and compared with AISI 316L. The electrochemical studies were conducted by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic measurements in a simulated body fluid. Cytocompatibility was also evaluated by the adhesion behavior of adult human stem cells on the su...

the electrochemical behavior of nifedipine (i), nitrendipine(ii) and their photodegradation products has been studied by employing electrochemical techniques in chloroform and in 1:4 mixture of chloroform-isopropanol using piperidinium perchlorate (ppc) as supporting electrolyte. it has been shown that i and ii undergo in a 4e, 4h+ irreversible reduction reaction, while the reduction product, p...

Using the nano-porous pseudo carbon paste electrode (Nano-PPCPE) as the working electrode, mixing L-glutamate oxidase (L-GLOD), catalase (Cat) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) with phosphate buffer (PB, pH = 7.4), followed by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde, a novel L-glutamate electrochemical biosensor was successfully formed. It was demonstrated that the modified nano-PPCPE exhibits a high se...

the studies performed about electrochemical oxidation 2-amino-4-methylphenol indicate that ortho-quinone yielded through oxidation of this chemical compound was unstable and it could be used as michael acceptor under solvent influences, carrier electrolyte, additives and could be transformed into the various compounds in the form of 1-4 addition michael reaction. based on this, in the paper fir...

This work is aimed to evaluate the role of nanoclay in the protective performance of an eco-friendly silane sol-gel layer applied on mild steel substrate in 0.1M sodium chloride solution. At the first step, the effect of pH of the silane solution, consisting of a mixture of γ-glycidoxypropiltrimethoxysilane and methyltriethoxysilane and tetraethoxysilane, on the coating performance was evaluate...
