Nanoindentation investigation of mechanical properties of ZrO2, ZrO2-Y2O3, Al2O3 and TiO2 thin films deposited on stainless steel OC 4O4 substrate by spray pyrolysis
(Elsevier, 2014)
Thin ZrO2, ZrO2-Y2O3, Al2O3 and TiO2 films were deposited by spray pyrolysis method on stainless steel DC 404 substrate with thickness 50 mu m. The thicknesses of obtained films varied from 0.50 to 0.64 mu m. The surface ...
What are preferred water-aromatic interactions in proteins and crystal structures of small molecules?
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2014)
The distribution of water molecules around aromatic rings in the protein structures and crystal structures of small molecules shows quite a small number of the strongest OH-pi interactions, a larger number of parallel ...
Insight into the Effect of Sn on CO and Formic Acid Oxidation at PtSn Catalysts
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2014)
The role of Sn on the catalytic activity for CO and formic acid oxidation is studied by comparing the activities of differently treated PtSn/C and Pt/C catalysts. The catalysts are prepared by a microwave-assisted polyol ...
Electrooxidation of p-nitrophenol using a composite organo-smectite clay glassy carbon electrode
(Elsevier, 2014)
Bentonite clay rich in smectite clay mineral from seldom investigated locality Mecji Do (MD) in Serbia was modified. The organomodification was performed with different loadings of benzyltrimethylammonium (BTMA) cation. ...
Biomimetic synthesis and properties of cellular SiC
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Biomorphous beta-SiC ceramics were produced from several species of wood such as ash, wild cherry, black alder, Persian walnut, sessile oak and European hornbeam. The wood was pyrolysed, impregnated with tetraethyl ...
The molecular properties of nitrobenzanthrone isomers and their mutagenic activities
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
The mutagenic activity of five mono-substituted nitrobenzanthrones (NBA) has been determined in the Ames assay (Takamura-Enya et al., 2006). In the present study, a theoretical investigation of the electronic properties ...
Suppression of noise in semiconductor infrared detectors using plasmonics
(Iop Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2014)
We consider the enhancement of the specific detectivity of semiconductor infrared photodetectors for the mid-infrared range utilizing spherical submicrometer plasmonic particles with redshifted spectral characteristics. ...
Electrooxidative Behavior of Arylazo Pyridone Dyes and Their Inclusion Complexes on Gold Electrode in 0.1 M NaOH
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
The electrochemical behavior of six arylazo pyridone dyes classified to the substituents present at the phenylazo and 2-pyridone moiety and their 1:1 inclusion complexes with (2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin was studied ...
Catalytic activities of Pt thin films electrodeposited onto Bi coated glassy carbon substrate toward formic acid electrooxidation
(Elsevier, 2014)
Formic acid oxidation was studied on platinum-coated bismuth deposits on glassy carbon substrate. The catalyst was prepared by a two-step process using chronocoulometry, i.e. controlled amount of Bi was electrodeposited ...
Theoretical study of the molecular properties of dimethylanthracenes as properties for the prediction of their biodegradation and mutagenicity
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
There is little information available on methyl derivatives of anthracene and their interaction with the enzymes of bacterial consortia that could be found in petroleum sludge. In this study a theoretical investigation of ...
