Cu Electrodeposition on Ru with a Chemisorbed Iodine Surface Layer.

Description: An iodine surface layer has been prepared on Ru(poly) and Ru(0001) electrodes by exposure to iodine vapor in UHV and polarizing in a 0.1 M HClO4/0.005 M KI solution, respectively. A saturation coverage of I on a Ru(poly) electrode passivates the Ru surface against significant hydroxide, chemisorbed oxygen or oxide formation during exposure to water vapor over an electrochemical cell in a UHV-electrochemistry transfer system. Immersion of I-Ru(poly) results in greater hydroxide and chemisorbed o… more

Electrochemical Synthesis and Applications of Layered Double Hydroxides and Derivatives

Description: Layered double hydroxides (LDH) are a class of anionic clay with alternating layers of positive and negative charge. A metal hydroxide layer with divalent and trivalent metals with a positive charge is complemented by an interlayer region containing anions and water with a negative charge. The anions can be exchanged under favorable conditions. Hydrotalcite (Mg6Al2(OH)16[CO3]·4H2O) and other variations are naturally occurring minerals. Synthetic LDH can be prepared as a powder or film by numero… more

Effect of Depth of Discharge on Lead-Acid Battery Overcharge Requirements

Description: Proper charging is essential to achieve maximum performance and life of lead-acid batteries. Excessive overcharging gives rise to increased battery temperature, gassing rates, electrolyte maintenance, and component corrosion, whereas repeated undercharging causes a gradual decrease in battery capacity, which often becomes irreversible. To develop an optimal charge procedure, the relation between battery available capacity, applied overcharge, and the depth-of-discharge (DOD) level prior to char… more

The Wetting Behavior of Molten-Chloride Electrolytes: Capillarity Effects in Lithium-Aluminum/Metal Sulfide Batteries

Description: A lithium-aluminum/iron sulfide battery which uses a molten LiCl-KCl electrolyte is presently under development at Argonne National Laboratory. The performance and lifetime of this electrochemical system depend, in part, on the ability of the electrolyte to wet the materials used as electrodes, separators, and particle retainers. For this reason contact-angle measurements were made on smooth, 100%-dense surfaces of the cell materials. In addition, electrolyte penetrability determinations were m… more

Sulfur-Based Organic Compounds as Novel Corrosion Inhibitors for Brass and Aluminum Alloy Protection in Acid Cleaning Solutions

Description: In this study, thiol and two disulfide compounds have been tested as new corrosion inhibitors for brass and aluminum alloys. Pyridine-2-thiol and 2,2'-dipyridyl disulfide were tested for brass alloys in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution and both inhibitors showed excellent corrosion protection against the aggressive corrosive ion attack. Both inhibitors adsorbed to brass surface forming a protective film via a chemisorption process. XPS studies showed formation of Cu-S bond which allows these molecules to c… more

Effects of Operating Temperature on the Characteristics of Nickel/Iron Traction Batteries

Description: Performance of improved Ni/Fe electric vehicle batteries was measured at ambient temperatures of 0, 25, and 50 C for a range of overcharge levels, open-circuit stand times, and charge and discharge rates. Tests in which charges and discharges were performed at different battery operating temperatures showed that the discharge capacity of a Ni/Fe battery is directly related to its operating temperature, but its charge acceptance is decreased at 0 and 50 C by approx. 6% from that obtained at 25 C… more
