Phyllomanganate vein-infillings in faulted and Al-poor regoliths of the New Caledonian ophiolite: periodic and sequential crystallization of Ni-asbolane, Alk-birnessite and H-birnessite

Mineralogy, chemistry and spatial distribution of phyllomanganates, found in abundance at the bottom of thick Ni-laterite deposits, were established on dislocated vein-infillings showing banded and fibrous patterns (i.e. colloforms with rows of tiny boxwor ...

Copper sulfide nanoparticles as hole-transporting-material in a fully-inorganic blocking layers n-i-p perovskite solar cells: Application and working insights

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Giulia Grancini, Cristina Roldán Carmona, Valentin Ianis Emmanuel Queloz

One of the challenges in the field of perovskite solar cells (PSC) is the development of inorganic hole-transporting-materials (HTM) suitable for solution-processed deposition, in order to have cheaper, more stable and scalable devices. Herein, we report t ...

Strengthening of steel beams using iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA) strips

Ardalan Hosseini, Masoud Motavalli, Elyas Ghafoori, Julien Michels

The current study presents a retrofit system, which can be used for strengthening of steel bridge beams using (un-bonded) mechanically-anchored iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA, ‘memory-steel’) strips. After anchoring, the Fe-SMA strips are activated ...

Fe-Ni ideality during core formation on Earth

James Badro

Earth's core is essentially composed of a light-element bearing iron-nickel alloy (Birch 1964). The nickel content in the core has negligible effects on physical properties such as density and compressibility (e.g., Lin et al. 2003; Kantor et al. 2007; Mar ...

Reversible Segregation of Ni in LaFe0.8Ni0.2O3 +/-delta During Coke Removal

Davide Ferri, Oliver Kröcher

The deactivation of supported nickel catalysts by coking is an important technological subject for many chemical processes, especially when high concentrations of unsaturated hydrocarbons are present in the feed gas. Here, the reversible segregation of Ni ...

Microstructural evolution and mechanical property development with nickel addition in low-carbon weld butt joints

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Gaojun Mao, Rui Cao

Four metal powder flux-cored wires with added nickel (Ni) were designed to systematically investigate how Ni influences the microstructure and toughness in low-carbon bainitic weld metals (WMs). The microstructure was safely predicted by utilizing reasonab ...

Amorphous Cobalt Vanadium Oxide as a Highly Active Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution

Xile Hu, Laurent Liardet

The water-splitting reaction provides a promising mechanism to store renewable energies in the form of hydrogen fuel. The oxidation half-reaction, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), is a complex four-electron process that constitutes an efficiency bottle ...

Shape memory alloy (SMA) strips for fatigue strengthening of cracked steel plates

Ardalan Hosseini, Elyas Ghafoori

This paper aims to show the feasibility of application of iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA) for fatigue strengthening of steel plates. The effectiveness of the proposed retrofit system was also compared with that of prestressed carbon-fiber reinforced ...

Reversible Segregation of Nickel from Perovskite-type Oxides - Applications in Energy Processes

Patrick Simon Steiger

In this thesis, Ni catalysts derived from perovskite-type metal oxides (PMO, general formula ABO3, A=lanthanide or earth alkaline element, B=transition metal) are investigated as a potential class of materials, which are able to overcome thechallenges of c ...
