Effect Of Cracks On Corrosion Of Rebar In Concrete Studied By Wire Beam Electrode, Guo-Xi Li May 2006

Effect Of Cracks On Corrosion Of Rebar In Concrete Studied By Wire Beam Electrode, Guo-Xi Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

The effects of crack and ethanolamine on corrosion of rebar in concrete were studied by measuring the distribution of corrosion potential and polarization resistance of iron wires in 10% NaCl solution.The results showed that the diffusion of water,oxygen and chloric ion toward concrete was accelerated by the crack which intensified the nonuniform corrosion of iron wire with the regions near to crack as anode and the uncracked regions as cathode.Ethanolamine could diffuse into the body of concrete and absorb on the surface of iron wire,which reduced iron corrosion evidently and successfully inhibited the nonuniform corrosion caused by crack without changing …

Electrochemical Studies On Electrocatalytic Activity Of Au_(Core) Pt_(Shell)Nanoparticles To Methanol Oxidation, Fang Bao, Jian-Lin Yao, Ren-Ao Gu

Journal of Electrochemistry

Au_(core)Pt_(shell)nanoparticles with different thicknesses were prepared by using chemical reduction method,and characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy(UV-Vis),transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and cyclic voltammetry(CV).The electrocatalytic activity of Au_(core)Pt_(shell)nanoparticles with the mean diameter of 70~80 nm to methanol oxidation was investigated by cyclic voltammetry in the acid solution.The results revealed that the prepared core-shell nanoparticles were covered by Pt shell and exhibited the similar optical property and electrocatalytic activity with the normal Pt surface.Moreover,the electrocatalytic activity increased with the electrochemical sweep in the certain potential range.It might be contributed by the special loose structure of Pt shell rather than the increase of the real area.

Effects Of Sulfide Ions On The Inhibiting Efficiency Of Eda As A Copper Corrosion Inhibitor In Dilute Hcl Solution, Wen-Juan Qu, Rong-Gui Du

Journal of Electrochemistry

The anticorrosion action of EDA on copper in dilute HCl solution and the effect of sulfide ions on the inhibiting efficiency were studied by the Tafel plot method.The corrosion potential of Cu shifted to more positive value and the corrosion current density decreased after the addition of Na_(2)S to the solution.The results indicated that sulphide ions could increase the inhibiting efficiency of EDA because of the synergistic inhibition effect between EDA and Na_2S,resulting from the adsorption of HS~(-)on the surface of Cu,facilitated the adsorption of EDA to form a highly protective adsorbed layer which prevented Cu from corrosion.

Electroless Nickel Plating On Carbon Nanotube With Non-Palladium Activation Procedure, Guang-Hui Hu, Hui-Huang Wu, Yangfang-Zu Yangfang-Zu

Journal of Electrochemistry

A new procedure of surface activation without using palladium salt was proposed for electroless nickel plating on carbon nanotubes.In the procedure,carbon nanotubes were oxidized by nitric acid and then neutralized with NaOH to create carboxyl surface groups which were used to adsorb Ni~(2+)ions,thereafter the adsorbed Ni~(2+)ions were chemically reduced into Ni nano-particles as a catalytic center for electroless nickel deposition,all these were further confirmed by infrared absorption spectra and electron microscopic observations.The results indicate that the procedure is feasible to electroless nickel plating on carbon nanotubes.The different morphology of deposits obtained from electroless plating was also discussed.

Mechanism Of Self Discharge Performance Improvement In The Ni-Mh Batteries With Naoh Electrolyte, Xiao-Feng Li Feb 2006

Mechanism Of Self Discharge Performance Improvement In The Ni-Mh Batteries With Naoh Electrolyte, Xiao-Feng Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

The self-discharge performance and charge efficiency at 60 ℃ for Ni-MH battery can be markedly enhanced by using NaOH electrolyte instead of KOH electrolyte.Both the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry tests indicate that the separation of H_2 from the negative electrode may be partly blocked in the former because of the change of the adsorption/desorption behavior of H on the surface of the negative electrode,thus results in an improvement of self-discharge performance of the battery.

Electrocatalytic Oxidation Of Glucose On Nano Pt/C Electrode, Cui-Lian Chen Feb 2006

Electrocatalytic Oxidation Of Glucose On Nano Pt/C Electrode, Cui-Lian Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Nano Pt/C electrocatalysts were prepared by intermittent microwave heating method.The electrooxidation of glucose on smooth Pt and~Pt/C electrodes has been studied and compared.The results showed that the electrochemical properties on nano Pt/C were improved due to the reduction of the overpotential and the increase in the kinetic rate.The surface area would be significantly increased when the particle size of the catalyst was reduced to nano-scale,resulting in the increase in the activity.The enhancement in the resistance to poisoning could be explained that the oxygen-containing species are easier to react with poisoning species on nano Pt/C and re-active the electrode.

Journal of Electrochemistry

AC impedance and polarization curve measurements were conducted to study the effects of environ-ment-friendly inhibitors PASP,Na_(2)WO_(4)and their complexes on the corrosion of cupronickel B10 in 3%NaCl solution.The results indicate that PASP or Na_(2)WO_(4)alone does inhibit the corrosion of B10,and most effectiveconcentrations are 40 mg/L and 60 mg/L for PASP and Na_(2)WO_(4),respectively.With the total concentration of 40mg/L for the complex inhibitors,the optimum complex ratio of PASP to Na_(2)WO_(4)was 3:1.The complex of such a combination showed a significantly synergetic inhibition effect on the corrosion of B10.
