Sucker rods are a key element in certain oil-extraction processes as they link the motor group on surface with pumps located downhole. During transport from production site toward extraction well, these components prone to corrosion. A hydrophobic carbon nanotube (CNT) coating, deposited via electrophoretic deposition (EPD), is proposed protective layer, shielding harsh environmental conditions...

The performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can be degraded by “chromium poisoning” where thermally grown Cr2O3 on metallic surfaces forms volatile Cr-containing species that are redeposited active regions the cathode. This phenomenon is further exacerbated for porous interconnects and metal-supported electrodes due to their large surface-to-volume ratios. In this study, electrophoretic d...

genus rattus from the subfamily murinae has a wide geographical distribution throughout the world. three species of this genus have been reported in iran so far. they are norway or brown rat (rattus norvegicus), black rat (rattus rattus), and himalayan rat (rattus pyctoris). in order to verify the possibility of using electrophoretic patterns of special proteins, in biosystematic analysis of th...

The target was to study and develop industrially suitable methods to apply thermoplastic coatings on plywood. Typically, wear and climatic resistance for wooden sheets, such as chip board and plywood, is achieved by thermosetting resin coating (e.g. phenolformaldehyde). However, economical and environmental issues are driving towards thermoplastic coatings (e.g. polyethylene) in such products. ...
