The Mg-Li electrodes containing 8.5% and 14% Li were prepared using an induction melting method. Their electrochemical behavior in NaCl solution was investigated by means of potentiodynamic polarization, potentiostatic oxidation,electrochemical impedance technique and mass-loss measurements. The morphology of the electrodes after discharge was examined using scanning electron microscopy. The Mg-14Li electrode showed more negative open circuit potential and higher discharge current density than Mg-8.5Li electrode. The oxidation products of Mg-14Li loosely attached on the electrode surface and peeled off easily. The Mg-8.5Li exhibited higher utilization efficiency. Both electrodes gave higher utilization efficiencies when discharged at lower anodic potential.

Influence Of Functional Components On The Film Formation Of Colloidal Dispersions, Kevin Lee Rhudy
Dissertations
A number of colloidal dispersions were synthesized to advance knowledge and gain understanding regarding interactions between individual components and for elucidation of complex processes governing their film formation. These studies show that for methyl methacrylate/n-butyl acrylate (MMA/nBA) colloidal dispersions, the presence of functional components significantly affects film formation. The incorporation of polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) into pMMA/nBA colloidal dispersions creates competing environments between the copolymer particle surfaces, aqueous phases, and dispersing agents which results in migration with self-induced stratification occuring during coalescence. pMMA/nBA/PVOH films stratify to form sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) rich film-air (F-A) interfaces, and the -SO3" moieties exhibit preferential …

Actinide mononitrides have been considered as a possible nuclear fuel for the Generation-IV nuclear reactor systems. In the process of evaluating these actinide mononitrides as nuclear fuel, it is important to study different chemical and physical characteristics of these compounds. Synthesis of the materials is thus important. Carbothermic reduction is one of the techniques that have been used to synthesize actinide mononitrides. In this method, a mixture of actinide oxide such as UO 2 and excess carbon is heat treated at temperatures greater than 1700 °C under a nitrogen atmosphere. The technique is however not promising in synthesizing the actinide …

Inorganic–polymer hybrid nanofibres were prepared by using a rod-like tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) as a template. With tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as a precursor, long silica-coated TMVfibres were formed via a head-to-tail assembly, which showed a substantial increase of the elastic modulus. Furthermore, homogenous titania–TMV hybrid fibres could be prepared using polyaniline-coated TMV fibres as a template, which were used to form a composite film that was able to sense liquefied petroleum gases.
