An Fe group ternary nanoalloy (NA) catalyst enabled selective electrocatalysis towards CO2-free power generation from highly deliverable ethylene glycol (EG). A solid-solution-type FeCoNi NA catalyst supported on carbon was prepared by a two-step reduction method. High-resolution electron microscopy techniques identified atomic-level mixing of constituent elements in the nanoalloy. We examined ...

In this work we have used a closed system model to derive an analytical equation for the osmotic pressure of two component electrolyte and non-electrolyte solutions. In order to do so, we have used an equation of state, known as the dense system equation of state (DSEOS), for the model system. Based on the model, a new definition is given for the osmotic pressure of a closed system. Good ag...

the determination region of solubility of methanol with gasoline of high aromatic content was investigated experimentally at temperature of 288.2 k. a type 1 liquid-liquid phase diagram was obtained for this ternary system. these results were correlated simultaneously by the uniquac model. the values of the interaction parameters between each pair of components in the system were obtained for t...

a nanocomposite membrane cu2+ ion-selective electrode has been constructed using a new compound ethyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxopyrimidine-5-carboxylat (etmoc) as a neutral ionophore. the electrode works properly. it responds to cu2+ ion with a sensitivity of 29.5 ± 0.2 mv/decade over the range 1.0 × 10−9 to 5.0 × 10−1m at ph 3.0-8.0. the limit of detection was 4.5 × ...

In this paper a family of constacyclic ternary quasi-perfect linear block codes is presented. This family extends the result presented in a previous work by the first two authors, where the existence of codes with the presented parameters was stated as an open question. The codes have a minimum distance 5 and covering radius 3.

The packing chromatic number (G) of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that there exists a k-vertex coloring of G in which any two vertices receiving color i are at distance at least i + 1. Let S be the base-3 Sierpiński graph of dimension n. It is proved that (S ) = 3, (S ) = 5, (S ) = (S ) = 7, and that 8 ≤ (S ) ≤ 9 holds for any n ≥ 5.

This work in progress examines the roles that Trust in Technology (TRIT) and Computer Self-efficacy (CSE) play in predicting post-adoptive usage behavior. Under the umbrella of social cognitive theory, it uses attribution theory and the trust literature to develop an integrative model of trust and self-efficacy. Specifically, we posit that TRIT impacts users’ CSE and that these beliefs lead to ...

This paper presents minimization technique for multiple value function using Quine Mc-cluskey‟s method. This paper provide steps for the minimization of multivalued function i.e. radix >2 digital system. The ternary digital system which radix=3 is considered here minimized function of MVL function implemented using decoder and multiplexer and answer is verified using ternary k-map. As the radix...

Ternary complexes of meloxicam (ME) (a poorly water soluble anti-inflammatory drug) with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) and either a hydrophilic polymer, namely, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) or a basic amino acid such as L-arginine, were prepared by the spray-drying technique. The solubilizing efficiency, physical properties and dissolution behaviour of each ternary system of ME-HPbe...

Metal sulfides are commonly used in energy storage and electrocatalysts due to their redox centers and active sites. Most literature reports show that their performance decreases significantly caused by oxidation in alkaline electrolyte during electrochemical testing. Herein, S and N co-doped graphene-based nickel cobalt sulfide aerogels are synthesized for use as rechargeable alkaline battery ...
