Porous carbon thin films for electrochemical capacitors
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
Activation effects on carbon films, derived from commercial aromatic polyimide films (Kapton, DuPont), in CO2 atmosphere at 1203 K on capacitance properties were studied. Two thicknesses of polyimide films were used: 7 and ...
Superior capacitive and electrocatalytic properties of carbonized nanostructured polyaniline upon a low-temperature hydrothermal treatment
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
Carbonized nanostructured polyaniline (C.PANI) was hydrothermally treated in 1 mol dm(-3) KOH at 200 degrees C. The treatment caused significant reduction of micropore volume but negligible changes in mesoporous domain, ...
Arylpiperazine-mediated activation of Akt protects SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells from 6-hydroxydopamine-induced apoptotic and autophagic death
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
We investigated the ability of 19 recently synthesized arylpiperazine compounds to protect human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells from the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). The compound with the most potent neuroprotective ...
Engineered surface waves in hyperbolic metamaterials
(Optical Society of America, 2013)
We analyzed surface-wave propagation that takes place at the boundary between a semi-infinite dielectric and a multilayered metamaterial, the latter with indefinite permittivity and cut normally to the layers. Known ...
Analysis of the competitive adsorption and mass transfer influence on equilibrium mass fluctuations in affinity-based biosensors
(Elsevier, 2013)
We analyze the fluctuations of the equilibrium adsorbed mass in affinity-based biosensors, considering adsorption-desorption and mass transfer processes of two molecular species which compete for binding to the same probe ...
Kinetics of sunflower and used vegetable oil methanolysis catalyzed by CaO center dot ZnO
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The kinetics of heterogeneous methanolysis of sunflower oil and used vegetable oil were studied at different temperatures, ranging from 60 to 96 degrees C using CaO center dot ZnO as catalyst (2 wt% on the basis of oil) ...
Silver incorporation on viscose and cotton fibers after air, nitrogen and oxygen DBD plasma pretreatment
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2013)
Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) pretreatments in air, nitrogen and oxygen plasma of viscose and cotton fabrics with subsequent immobilization of silver were studied. Surface activation of treated fibers was evaluated ...
Degradation of triketone herbicides, mesotrione and sulcotrione, using advanced oxidation processes
(Elsevier, 2013)
Degradation of two triketone herbicides, mesotrione and sulcotrione, was studied using four different advanced oxidation processes (AOPs): ozonization, dielectric barrier discharge (DBD reactor), photocatalysis and Fenton ...
Extensive feedwater quality control and monitoring concept for preventing chemistry-related failures of boiler tubes in a subcritical thermal power plant
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
Prevention and minimizing corrosion processes on steam generating equipment is highly important in the thermal power industry. The maintenance of feedwater quality at a level corresponding to the standards of technological ...
Structural characterization and electrical properties of sintered magnesium-titanate ceramics
(Elsevier, 2013)
In this article the influence of ball miling process on structure of MgO-TiO2 system, as well as the electrical properties of samples after sintering, was investigated. The mixtures of MgO-TiO2 powders were mechanically ...
