Electrochemical studies of the interface Fe/0.5 mol L(-1) H(2)SO(4) in the presence of benzotriazole and tolytriazole

The effect of benzotriazole (BTAH) and tolytriazole (TTAH) on the electrochemical behaviour of the Fe/0.5 mol L(-1) H(2)SO(4) interface at 25 degrees C was studied using cronopotentiometry, anodic and cathodic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. BTAH and TTAH are inhibitors of anodic iron dissolution and the subsequent hydrogen evolution in 0.5 mol L(-1) H(2)SO(4) medium. Mass transport is an important step in the anodic process of inhibitive film formation. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to investigate the iron dissolution mechanism in the presence of the inhibitors and showed that BTAH and TTAH are adsorbed on the iron surface, thereby changing its dissolution mechanism in sulfate media. Starting from an iron dissolution model, it was possible to suggest two different mechanisms for iron dissolution in 0.5 mol L(-1) H(2)SO(4) containing BTAH or TTAH that involve a complex Fe(II)-inhibitor.

Study of electrochemical behavior of azoles for AISI 430 stainless steel in H(2)SO(4) 1 mol L(-1)

Corrosion is an undesirable process that occurs in metallic materials. Studied was the effect of inhibiting Benzotriazole (BTAH), Benzimidazole (BZM) and Indole in different concentrations-for the stainless steel (SS) AISI 430 in H(2)SO(4) mol The techniques employed this research were: anodic potenciostatic polarisation, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy The curves of anodic polarisation showed that BTAH, BZM and Indol act as corrosion inhibitors for 430 SS, at concentrations of 1x10(-3) and 5x10(-4) mol L(-1) but do not inhibit corrosion for concentrations equal to or less than 1x10(-4) mol L(-1). The in-crease of the efficiency in relation to the inhibitory substances studied followed this order: Indol

Electrochemical behavior of the cistein and diphosfonate for stainless steel in media of HCl 1 mol L(-1)

Amino acids and self assembled monolayers (SAM`s) have been studied as to their inhibiting action on the corrosion of metallic materials. The objective of work is to study the electrochemical behavior of the cisteincisteine, the diphosfonate and the mixture of both in inhibiting the action of corrosion on stainless steel 304 in HCl 1 molL(-1). As the following techniques were used: open circuit potential (OCP), potenciostatic anodic polarization (A P), chronoamperomeny (CA), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and optical microscopy (OM). The results of CA showed that cisteine has a double effect, catalytic and inhibiting, in function of the immersion time of the metallic part in the electrolytic solution. AP curves have shown lesser current density for the system containing cisteine diphosfonate suggesting an inhibiting synergic action. These results have been confirmed by EIS and OM.

Desenvolvimento e validação de método analítico para quantificação da boldina em peumus boldus mol. (monimiaceae) e avaliação preliminar de sua estabilidade

Peumus boldus Molina (Monimiaceae) é uma árvore comum e abundante no Chile, e suas folhas são amplamente empregadas pela medicina tradicional para o tratamento de uma variedade de afecções do sistema digestivo e hepatobiliar. Seus principais constituintes químicos são alcalóides do tipo aporfínicos, sendo a boldina seu maior e mais característico representante, cujas propriedades antioxidantes são extensivamente relatadas na literatura, servindo desta forma como marcador químico para a espécie. Com o objetivo de contribuir com parâmetros de controle de qualidade, um estudo botânico macro e microscópico das folhas e do pó da espécie foi realizado. Características morfológicas, identificadas pela análise macroscópica, como pilosidade, tipologia dos tricomas, proeminência ao redor da base dos tricomas e aparência do bordo, e características microscópicas como estômatos anomocíticos, folha hipoestomática e ocorrência de cristais de oxalato de cálcio denotam valor taxonômico. Parâmetros farmacopéicos como cinzas totais e perda por dessecação foram determinados, e um método de quantificação da boldina foi desenvolvido e validado utilizando a CLAE. O limite mínimo de boldina observado na análise de 10 amostras adquiridas foi de aproximadamente 0,016%. A fim de avaliarse o comportamento de seus constituintes químicos frente a variações de temperatura e umidade, realizou-se estudo de estabilidade acelerada (40ºC ± 2ºC / 75% ± 5% U.R.). A degradação máxima de boldina foi observada após 90 dias em câmara climática chegando a aproximadamente 52%. A reação de degradação sugerida foi de segunda ordem, e o tempo de vida útil e meia-vida calculados foram de aproximadamente 18 dias e 165 dias, respectivamente. Por fim, realizou-se a quantificação de alguns metais pesados nas folhas da espécie, que decresceram na ordem de Fe> Mn> Cu> Ni, sendo que Pb, Cr e Co tiveram níveis abaixo do limite de detecção de 5 μg/g.

Niobium to alcohol mol ratio control of the concurring esterification and etherification reactions promoted by NbCl5 and Al2O3 catalysts under microwave irradiation

Alcohols and acids can be switched to produce ethers or esters by varying the alcohol to catalyst mol ratio, in a new etherification and esterification method using NbCl5/Al2O3 catalyst under "solvent free" conditions and promoted by MW (microwave) irradiation. A "two sites" mechanism for the reaction is proposed, in an attempt to clarify the tendency of the catalyst to be dependent on the alcohol alone during the esterification process.

A quantitative analysis of the polarization reversal in the 73 mol % vinylidene fluoride-27 mol % trifluorethylene copolymer

We show that a time-dependent, effective-medium approximation essentially explains the time behavior of the polarization reversals obtained in doped copolymers of vinylidene fluoride and trifluorethylene at 60°C by Ieda, Fukada, and Wada [J. Appl. Phys. 64, 2026 (1988)], who attributed the observed effects to charge accumulation at the boundaries of the permanently polarized crystallites. Moreover, the results seem to indicate that some hindrance (perhaps of mechanical origin) opposes the action of the switching electric field.

Estudo da resistência à corrosão de ligas Ni-Cr-Mo-Ta E Ni-Cr-Mo-W em solução NaF 0,08 mol/L, pH 4,7 para aplicações odontológicas

A large number of metal alloys are used in Dentistry for the manufacture of fixed and removable dentures. In the oral cavity, these structures are exposed to a chemically aggressive medium, like saliva and mechanical efforts, like mastication. In addition, acidic solutions containing fluoride ions are also frequently used in dental treatments to prevent dental plates and decays development. In this context, it was considered important to investigate the influence that a fourth element could exert when added to the ternary alloy Ni-Cr-Mo, largely used in Brazil. Therefore, electrochemical tests were done to evaluate the resistance to corrosion of quaternary alloy 65Ni-25Cr-5Mo-5Ta and 65Ni-25Cr-5Mo-5W in NaF solution 0,08mol / L, pH = 4.7. For greater understanding the microstructure and morphology of alloys were studied, through metallographic analysis, using optics microscopy and electron microscopy scanning. For the electrochemical tests were applied techniques traditionally used in corrosion researches, such as: potential measures in open circuit (OCP) and cyclic polarization (CP). It was found that both quaternary alloys showed very similar results. Comparing these quaternary alloys with the ternary 65Ni-25Cr-10Mo, it was found that the quaternary alloys exhibit greater resistance to corrosion, in other words, less passivation current density than the ternary alloy, showing that it is advantageous to add a fourth element in the alloy

Film based on Y2O3: Eu3+ (5 mol% of Eu3+) for flat panel display

This paper reports on Y2O3:Eu3+ containing 1 mol% of Ag-0 nanoparticle films recovered with a SiO2 layer by using glass foil as a substrate for a possible optical display device application. The obtained film showed an intense emission at 612 nm due to the Eu3+ 5D0 -> F-7(2) hypersensitive transition, a high transmittance in that emission range, an excellent optical quality, and a high absorption only below 300 nm. Moreover, despite the presence of the SiO2 layer used to improve the phosphor adhesion on Corning (R) foil substrates, the intensity ratios between the emissions assigned to Eu3+ D-5(0) -> F-7(2) (dipole electric transition) and D-5(0) -> F-7(1) (dipole magnetic transition) were not affected by it. The x and y coordinate values found in the 1931 Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage Chromaticity Diagram for this film reveal that it has a suitable pure red color emission for optical displays devices.
