From materials science to biotechnology, the field of nanotechnology has branched out into various areas of research. Several of these applications are predicated on the capacity to fabricate or ...

Localized anodic oxidation reaction of the material in acidic solution provides method of oxide film to rapidly and reversibly switch between silver surface and matte black.

DURING a study of the anodic oxidation of uranium it was found that brilliant interference colours could be obtained using an aqueous solution of ammonia as electrolyte. The film was found to be ...

As described in Chapter 2, metallic corrosion involves oxidation (anodic) and reduction (cathodic) half-cell reactions, where the metal oxidation reaction is the anodic reaction, and the reduction of ...

With the unique properties of nanomaterials, such as having a high surface-to-volume ratio and a diverse morphology and structure, they have become a desirable material for different applications.

Uniform corrosion tends to occur when some surface regions become anodic for a short period, but their location and that of the cathodic regions constantly change. General rusting of mild steel will ...

A unified copper-based catalyst platform featuring multivalent r-CuO nanorods for cathodic nitrate reduction (FE NH3% =96.8%) and pristine CuO nanorods for anodic glycerol oxidation (FE Formate% =93%) ...

A research team led by Prof. Xiaoqiang Huang from Nanjing University has achieved a major breakthrough in the field of asymmetric electroenzymatic catalysis, developing a novel non-natural dynamic ...

Due to the electrical potential difference that develops when two dissimilar metals or alloys are connected together in an aqueous solution, the base metal will become anodic and the more noble metal ...
