Molybdenum atomic-doping on bio-waste derived nitrogen-doped conductive carbon electrocatalyst was synthesized and investigated for the dinitrogen reduction to ammonia in alkaline media. The assessment of the catalytic activity was found to be non-trivial ...
The growing needs for human healthcare have driven the development of wearable devices for monitoring the health status of an individual. Polymers represent a promising platform for such devices due to their ability to form an intimate contact between soft ...
The fabrication of defined and high-quality metal nanostructures is an ongoing topic of research. Direct-write deposition of copper nanostructures is of great value for many fields of research and industrial applications. Focused electron beam induced depo ...
This thesis deals with the electrocatalytic properties of two-dimensional metal organic coordination networks (2D-MOCNs) self-assembled on electrode surfaces and catalytic activity of 2D-MOCNs is demonstrated for the first time. The low-coordinated metal c ...
The cyclic behaviour of 400 mu m pore size replicated aluminium foam is assessed in tension-tension fatigue with a stress ratio equal to 0.1, keeping the load amplitude constant, for relative density values comprised between 0.175 and 0.220. The number of ...
The syntheses, structures, and magnetic properties of four new complex salts, (PPN){Mn-III(salphen)(MeOH)[M-III(CN)(6)]} 7MeOH (Mn2M 7MeOH) (M = Fe, Ru, Os and Co; PPN+ = bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium cation; H2salphen = N,N'-bis(salicyliden ...
Microcellular aluminium can be produced by a process known as replication; this involves the infiltration of a packed bed of NaCl particles which are subsequently leached after metal solidification. The resulting material features a uniform distribution of ...
This thesis is focused on the properties of microcellular aluminium, produced by replication processing, at the micro, meso and macrostructural level. The replication process is based on the infiltration of a porous sodium chloride (NaCl) perform with molt ...
Metal complexation by dissolved organic matter, as humic acids, is considered to decrease metal bioavailability by lowering the free metal ion concentration. However, dissolved organic matter adsorption on cell surfaces can modify cell membrane properties, ...
We study the response to age hardening of Al-4.5%Cu replicated foams with 75 and 400 pm cell sizes and with varying relative densities. The 400 mu m cell size foams have a similar behavior to the bulk alloy, whereas the 75 pm cell size foams with relative ...
