Critical Behavior of La0.8Ca0.2Mn1−xCoxO3 Perovskite (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.3)
(
MDPI
, 2017 , Article)
The critical properties of La0.8Ca0.2Mn1−xCoxO3 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3) compounds were investigated by analysis of the magnetic measurements in the vicinity of their critical temperature. Arrott plots revealed that the ...
Applicable anode based on Co3O4–SrCO3 heterostructure nanorods-incorporated CNFs with low-onset potential for DUFCs
(
Springer
, 2017 , Article)
Besides the high-current density, lower onset potential of urea electrooxidation is key parameter which influences the direct urea fuel cell performance. In the present article, low-onset potential has been reported for ...
CoNi Nanoparticles/CNT Composite as Effective Anode for Direct Urea Fuel Cells
(
ESG.
, 2018 , Article)
CoNi nanoparticles/CNTs composite is introduced as workable anode in the direct urea fuel cells. The proposed anode was prepared by calcination under argon atmosphere of a dried cobalt acetate/nickel acetate/CNTs/ethanol ...
Stable N-doped & FeNidecorated graphene non-precious electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Acid Medium
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2018 , Article)
NiFe nanoparticles-decorated & N-doped graphene is introduced as an effective and stable nonprecious
electrocatalyst for ORR in the acid medium. Compared to conventional Pt/C electrodes
under the same conditions, the ...
Synthesis of Novel Aqua ƞ4-NNNO/Cu(II) Complexes as Rapid and Selective Oxidative Catalysts for O-Catechol: Fluorescence, Spectral, Chromotropism and Thermal Analyses
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
A new tetradentate Schiff base (SB), (E)-4-fluoro-2-(1-((2-(piperazin-1-yl)ethyl)imino)ethyl)phe-nol, was synthesized from condensation of 2-(1-piperazinyl)ethylamine and 5-fluoro-2-hydroxyacetophe-none. This ligand was ...
The Carcinogenic and Non-Carcinogenic Health Risks of Metal(oid)s Bioaccumulation in Leafy Vegetables: A Consumption Advisory
(
Frontiers Media
, 2021 , Article)
High levels of metal(oid)s in soil or food pose a severe health risk to humans. The potential toxicants find their way into the living systems via the food chain, following bioaccumulation in edible plants, including leafy ...
Systematic laboratory approach to produce Mg-rich carbonates at low temperature
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2021 , Article)
Dolomite is a common Mg-rich carbonate in the geological record, but the mechanism of its formation remains unclear. At low temperature, the incorporation of magnesium ions into the carbonate minerals necessary to form ...
Immobilization of heavy metals by microbially induced carbonate precipitation using hydrocarbon-degrading ureolytic bacteria
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Crude oil contamination introduces multiple threats to human health and the environment, most of which are from toxic heavy metals. Heavy metals cause significant threats because of their persistence, toxicity, and ...
Neonicotinoid insecticides in the environment: A critical review of their distribution, transport, fate, and toxic effects
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Neonicotinoid insecticides (NENIs) have become increasingly common in recent decades in the control of crop pests and other plant pathogens. It is undeniable that the practice improves crop yield and economic productivity ...
Nickel Toxicity Interferes with NO3−/NH4+ Uptake and Nitrogen Metabolic Enzyme Activity in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
The excessive use of nickel (Ni) in manufacturing and various industries has made Ni a serious pollutant in the past few decades. As a micronutrient, Ni is crucial for plant growth at low concentrations, but at higher ...
