Synthesis and properties of anodically oxidised films on metal titanium substrate for photocatalytic applications
The link between TiO2 and photocatalysis was recognized a long time ago. However, there was originally no scientific knowledge relating to the process of photocatalysis. Given this, it is impressive that the most significant advances in the properties of TiO2 in photocatalytic processes have been made since the first reports …
Annotation of semi-polar organic contaminants by using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry and machine learning
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), representing a subgroup of organic compounds of natural or synthetic origin, and their degradation and transformation products (TPs), with potentially harmful effects on humans, biota, and the environment, are the eco-exposome (EE) constituents of utmost importance. Their identification, quantification, and continued investigation into their environmental …
Synergistic action of organic inhibitors to mitigate corrosion of aluminium, copper and aluminium-copper alloy in chloride solution
The inhibitory action of organic compounds, 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (MBI), octylphosphonic acid (OPA) and their binary combinations was studied on aluminium, copper and aluminium alloy (AA) 2024 in chloride environments by ex-situ conventional electrochemical methods and surface-analytical techniques. In addition, the influence of pre-treatment of the metal surface and the choice of …
