The preparations and characterization of polypyrrole – polyethylene glycol (PPy-PEG) films are reported in this paper. The composite films were synthesized by electrochemical method in 0.2 mol·L-1 Py and 5% PEG in 0.2 mol·L-1 oxalic acid. The electrochemical behaviour of PPy and PPy-PEG coatings has been investigated in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) by cyclic voltammetry, Tafel plots and elec...

Harmonic maps from R2 or one-connected domain Ø ⊂ R2 into GL(m, C) and U(m) are treated. The GBDT version of the BäcklundDarboux transformation is applied to the case of the harmonic maps. A new general formula on the GBDT transformations of the Sym-Tafel immersions is derived. A class of the harmonic maps similar in certain ways to line-solitons is obtained explicitly and studied.

Limited studies have been conducted on the effect of a magnetic field corrosion behavior steels. Investigating pipeline material in oil and gas industries will be beneficial regarding prediction control. In this work, process API 5L X65 carbon steel was investigated well-developed flow loop using potentiodynamic polarization curves electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Using permanent m...

One of the attractive low activation steels is the austenitic Mn-Cr steel from the view point of waste disposal because of few long-lived nuclides. In this paper, three types of Mn-Cr austenitic steels were fabricated by vacuum induction furnace. Then plates with 10 mm thickness were fabricated by hot-rolling. The physical metallurgy of these steels was studied by the corrected Schaeffler diagr...

Layered material MoS2 has been attracting much attention due to its excellent electronical properties and catalytic property. Here we report the synthesis of vertically standing MoS2 triangles on silicon carbon(SiC), through a rapid sulfidation process. Such edge-terminated films are metastable structures of MoS2, which may find applications in FinFETs and catalytic reactions. We have confirmed...

Using a novel electrochemical phase-field model, we question the common belief that LixFePO4 nanoparticles separate into Li-rich and Li-poor phases during battery discharge. For small currents, spinodal decomposition or nucleation leads to moving phase boundaries. Above a critical current density (in the Tafel regime), the spinodal disappears, and particles fill homogeneously, which may explain...
