Vertical changes of the Co and Mn speciation along a lateritic regolith developed on peridotites (New Caledonia)

Gabrielle Dublet, Vincent Noel

Because they can host significant amounts of Co, the Mn-oxides are commonly considered as the major Co-bearing mineral species in lateritic environments. However, little is known about the process leading to the formation and/or the weathering of these Co- ...

Iron oxide-mediated semiconductor photocatalysis vs. heterogeneous photo-Fenton treatment of viruses in wastewater. Impact of the oxide particle size

César Pulgarin, Michaël Bensimon, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Sami Rtimi, Stefanos Giannakis, Siting Liu

The photo-Fenton process is recognized as a promising technique towards microorganism disinfection in wastewater, but its efficiency is hampered at near-neutral pH operating values. In this work, we overcome these obstacles by using the heterogeneous photo ...

Hydrothermal growth of iron oxide NPs with a uniform size distribution for magnetically induced hyperthermia: Structural, colloidal and magnetic properties

Heinrich Hofmann, Kurt Schenk, Olivier Jordan

Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution were synthesized by hydrothermally treating suspensions of iron oxide nanoparticles. Ricinoleic-acid-coated magnetic nanoparticles were co precipitated at room temperature from an aqueous so ...

Assemblies of gold nanoparticles at liquid-liquid interfaces

Evgeny Smirnov

The interface between two immiscible liquids, i.e. oil and water, is an extremely attractive scaffold to self-assemble nanoparticles (NP) in arranged films. The liquid-liquid interfaces (LLIs) are defect-free and pristine by the nature, they are transparen ...

Use of Bacteria To Stabilize Archaeological Iron

Julien Maillard

Iron artifacts are common among the findings of archaeological excavations. The corrosion layer formed on these objects requires stabilization after their recovery, without which the destruction of the item due to physicochemical damage is likely. Current ...

Enhancement of the Fenton and photo-Fenton processes by components found in wastewater from the industrial processing of natural products: The possibilities of cork boiling wastewater reuse

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Papoutsakis

Some wastewaters from the industrial processing of natural products, such as cork boiling wastewater (CBW), have been known to contain high quantities of polyphenolic compounds that are capable of forming complexes with ferric and ferrous iron and even con ...

Flow microcapillary plasma mass spectrometry-based investigation of new Al–Cr–Fe complex metallic alloy passivation

Christian Ludwig, Noémie Elise Ott, Andrea Ulrich

Al-Cr-Fe complex metallic alloys are new intermetallic phases with low surface energy, low friction, and high corrosion resistance down to very low pH values (0-2). Flow microcapillary plasma mass spectrometry under potentiostatic control was used to chara ...

Formation of an electron hole doped film in the alpha-Fe2O3 photoanode upon electrochemical oxidation

Michael Graetzel, Artur Braun, Florent Alexandre Boudoire

Solar hydrogen generation by water splitting in photoelectrochemical cells (PEC) is an appealing technology for a future hydrogen economy. Hematite is a prospective photoanode material in this respect because of its visible light conjugated band gap, its c ...

Interaction between liquid aluminium and solid iron Al-rich intermetallics formation

Guillaume Pasche

Intermetallic phases formation is one of the phenomena, which when coupled to thermal and mechanical strains leads to the premature wear of aluminium die casting tools made out of steel. This work focuses on two aspects of this wear problem. The first and ...
