One way to improve characteristics of oxide coatings prepared by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method in suspensions lies variation solid particle properties. In this study, the effect crystallinity on different physicochemical properties and bioactivity Ti Ti6Al4V substrates was studied, repeatability resulting assessed depending selected substrates. PEO performed direct current mode at a voltage 350 V electrolytes containing 0.1 M KH2PO4 100 g.L-1 stoichiometric crystalline...
Exacerbation of climate change has highlighted the need for new environmentally-friendly energy sources. Fuel cells, which are devices capable extracting electricity directly from internal chemical reactions, represent one promising concept that allows generation without burning fossil fuels. Direct methanol fuel cells most popular types, and they use as production. However, current lack suitable electrocatalytic materials limits application such on an industrial scale. This report presents...
There are many methods for incorporating organic corrosion inhibitors to oxide coatings formed on aluminum alloys. However, typically they require relatively concentrated solutions of inhibitors, possibly generating a problematic waste and/or time-/energy-consuming (elevated temperature is usually needed). The authors propose three-step method layer formation 6061-T651 alloy (AAs) via alternating current (AC) plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), impregnation with an 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ)...
Recent years have seen the dynamic development of methods for functionalizing surface implants using biomaterials that can mimic physical and mechanical nature native tissue, prevent formation bacterial biofilm, promote osteoconduction, ability to sustain cell proliferation. One concepts achieving this goal, which is presented in work, functionalize NiTi shape memory alloy by an atypical glass-like nanocomposite consists SiO2-TiO2 with silver nanoparticles. However, determining potential...
The climate crisis has become the most serious concern of human beings and environments worldwide in 21st century. Global concerns about cancer epidemiology mainly originate from anthropogenic activities, particularly fossil-based operations. A key solution to this problem is use fuel cells—devices—capable direct conversion chemical energies like urea into electricity. To make their commercialization reasonable, one problems that needs be solved development anodic materials. majority...
Intermetallics such as Ti3Au are characterised by improved mechanical properties and reduced susceptibility to corrosion. This study extensively blends the techniques of process simulation finite element analysis, light microscopy, scanning electron energy dispersive spectroscopy structural roentgenography analysis investigate interfacial intermetallics (IMC) in Au-Ti system. Ti was electrochemically coated with a micrometric layer gold then laser-treated wide range parameters. Variability...
The increasing climate crisis requires an improvement in renewable energy technologies. One of them are fuel cells, devices that capable generating electricity directly from the chemical reaction is taking place inside them. Despite advantages these solutions, a lack appropriate materials holding back commercialization. This research shows preliminary results simple way to prepare black TiO2 coatings, doped with Cu or Ni using plasma electrolytic oxidation process, which can be used as...
The aim of this work is to analyze the usefulness Sr3(PO4)2 as a potential antibacterial agent in fast-degradable polymer coatings. Ti implant was anodized and then covered by poly(adipic anhydride) layer blended with particles dip coating. average size 450 nm ± 53 (Zetasizer analysis), phase analysis (X-ray diffractometer) showed mainly crystalline phases. Surface morphology surface roughness were analyzed scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). oxide thickness on...
Due to the increasing climate crisis new electricity sources have be developed. Among them direct ethanol fuel cells are an interesting option, but for their commercialization development of anodic materials, that would cheap, active, and stable is necessary. Presented research proposes a NiCuGO composite, prepared by simple electrodeposition method. The proposed material shows good electrocatalytic activity towards oxidation, with peak current density 8.01±1.06 mA cm <sup...
