Journal of Electrochemistry

Inhibition of N,N'_o_phenylen_bis(3_methoxysalicylidenimine)(V_o_Ph_V)on corrosion and anodic disslution of copper in neutral NaCl and NaBr solutions was investigated in terms of potentiostatic steady_state polarization and A.C. impedance techniques.The inhibition mechanism of V_o_Ph_V to copper corrosion was interpreted in detail by comparing the electrochemical behaviors of copper in halide solutions with or without V_o_Ph_V.

Study On Preparation Of Coarse And Fine Γ-Lialo_2 Mixed Powder Used For Mcfc Matrix, Hua-Xin Lin, Bao-Lian Yi, Lian-Ying Kong, En-Jun Zhang, Li Zhou, Feng-Xia Wang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Coarse α_LiALO 2 powder was transferred completely to γ_LiAlO 2 at 900 ℃ for ten hours.Fine γ_LiAlO 2 powder was prepared by “chloride” synthesis. MCFC matrix was fabricated by mixing the coarse and fine γ_LiAlO 2 powder and by tape cast.The out'put voltage of the cell assembled with the matrix was 0.85 and 0.75 V respectively at 200 and 300 mA/cm 2,and power density was about 250 mW/cm 2.The performance of the matrix fabricated with the mixed powder was obviously more advanced than that of the matrix fabricated with only coarse γ_LiAlO 2 powder.

Journal of Electrochemistry

Ir_Ta_Ti metal oxide coated titanium anodes of variable composition were prepared by thermal decomposition. Their micro morphorogies and electrochemical properties were characterized by scanning electron microscope, open circuit potential, cyclic voltammetry, consumption rate measurements and accelerated life test. The SEM results indicated that all coatings were of a porous and cracked_mud microstructure influenced greatly by the composition of coatings. The electrochemical measurements showed that the Ir_Ta_Ti ternary oxide_coated anodes exhibited excellent electrochemical activity and electrochemical stability in both acidic media and seawater which were affected by the composition and microstructure of the coatings. Owing to good corrosion resistance and low …

An Eis Study On The Synergetic Filming Between Cathodic Protection And The Corrosion Inhibitor, Yong-Tao Zhao, Jian-Hua Wu, Jian-Hua Qian, Hui Yu

Journal of Electrochemistry

The electrochemical impedance spectroscope(EIS) of 907A steel in seawater was investigated to study the film formation and destruction. The corrosion protection mechanism of the synergy interaction between cathodic protection and YKI_5 corrosion inhibitor(a mixture of polyhydric alcohol phosphate ester, phosphate and polyphosphate) is discused. Typical EIS spectral changes were clearly observed during the film formation and destruction processes. EIS results indicated that the film seemed to formed a multi_layered structure which consist of an inner layer(this may be an inhibitor_metal complex layer) and many outer layers of calcareous deposits. The film possesses of good persistency under the testing conditions.

Studies Of Abnormal Infrared Effects Of Nanometer Thin Films Of Transition Metals And Alloys In Acid Solutions, Shi-Gang Sun, Ming-Sen Zheng, Guo-Qiang Lu, Li-Rong Cai, Sheng-Pei Cehn, Xiao-Yin Xiao

Journal of Electrochemistry

The adsorption of CO on electrodes of nanometer thin films of transition metals (Pt, Pd, Rh, Ru) and alloys (PtPd, PtRu) prepared under cyclic voltammetric conditions has been studied by in situ FTIR spectroscopy. The abnormal infrared effects (AIREs) have been explored as a novel and general phenomenon. The AIREs consist mainly in the inversion of the direction of IR band and the significant enhancement of IR absorption by adsorbed CO species. It was revealed that the enhanced IR absoroption of adsorbed species in AIREs depends strongly on the nature of metal or alloy, and on the structure and the …

Sprayed And Thermally Evaporated Carbon Films As Anodes For Lithium Ion Batteries, Shu-Gao Zhang, M.Schleich Donald

Journal of Electrochemistry

Carbon films were made using spray_thermal evaporation from a kind of pyrolytic carbon powder. The films obtained with graphite structure were both potentio_statically and galvanostaically tested. Cycling patterns indicated a reduction peak on the first cycle corresponding to the formation of solid electrolyte interface, and the capacity values and x values were quite acceptable compared to theoretical ones when charging_discharging current density was suitable. Based on the experimental results, the obtained carbon films could be used as anode materials for relatively determining the electrochemical performances of cathode materials.
