Magneto-Electro-Elastic Bimorph Analysis by the Boundary Element Method
2008
The influence of the magnetic configuration on the behavior of magneto-electro-elastic bimorph beams is analyzed by using a boundary element approach. The problem is formulated by using the generalized displacements and generalized tractions. The boundary integral equation formulation is obtained by extending the reciprocity theorem to magneto-electro-elastic problems; it is numerically implemented by using the boundary element method multidomain technique to address problems involving nonhomogeneous configurations. Results under different magnetic configurations are compared highlighting the characteristic features of magnetopiezoelectric behavior particularly focusing on the link between …
Ni-Based Catalysts for Low Temperature Methane Steam Reforming: Recent Results on Ni-Au and Comparison with Other Bi-Metallic Systems
2013
Steam reforming of light hydrocarbons provides a promising method for hydrogen production. Ni-based catalysts are so far the best and the most commonly used catalysts for steam reforming because of their acceptably high activity and significantly lower cost in comparison with alternative precious metal-based catalysts. However, nickel catalysts are susceptible to deactivation from the deposition of carbon, even when operating at steam-to-carbon ratios predicted to be thermodynamically outside of the carbon-forming regime. Reactivity and deactivation by carbon formation can be tuned by modifying Ni surfaces with a second metal, such as Au through alloy formation. In the present review, we su…
2.8NiO–H1.8Ni0.6(OH)MoO4—Novel nanocomposite material for the reactive adsorption of sulfur-containing molecules at moderate temperature
2011
Abstract It has been found that a poorly crystalline green precipitate that forms in boiling ammonia solution of Ni(NO 3 ) 2 and (NH 4 ) 6 Mo 7 O 24 yields on annealing a Ni-rich material (Ni/Mo = 3.4) containing slit shaped mesopores and exhibiting the BET surface area of 230 m 2 /g. Characterization of the material by TGA, XRD, TEM, SEM, and EXAFS allowed to determine that it is a nanocomposite consisting of Ni–Mo (hydro)oxide layers H 1.8 Ni 0.6 (OH)MoO 4 which are pillared by NiO nanoparticles ( D = 3 nm). The structure of the layers appears to be similar to that found in the previously described crystalline molybdate (NH 4 )HNi 2 (OH) 2 (MoO 4 ) 2 prepared in the similar conditions. T…
Bonding behavior of Bi-metal-deposits produced by hybrid cold spray additive manufacturing
2022
Abstract Cold spraying (CS) is one of the most recently used additive manufacturing (AM) processes that allow forming large 3D objects efficiently without severe thermal effects. However, due to some limitations of the CSAM process, it is difficult to achieve the desired geometry with high precision. As a potential solution to this issue, CSAM process coupled machining, that is, hybrid addition and subtraction manufacturing, is proposed to achieve desired accuracy and reliable shape. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the mechanical reliability of multilayer deposits deposited by CSAM + machining processes before that. In this work, different bi-deposits were obtained via hybrid CSAM. The…
Pd2Mo3N: a new molybdenum bimetallic interstitial nitride
2001
The molybdenum bimetallic nitride Pd2Mo3N has been synthesized by ammonolysis of the stoichiometric mixture of low sized pure oxide crystallites (2PdO/3MoO3) as resulting from low temperature thermal decomposition of precursor powders obtained by freeze-drying of aqueous solutions of the appropriate metal salts. This compound has been characterized by elemental analysis, energy dispersive analysis of X-rays, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (field emision) and thermogravimetry under oxygen atmosphere. Pd2Mo3N crystallizes in the cubic space group P4132 (no. 213) (Pd2Mo3N, a = 6.81770(3) A, Z = 4), and presents the unusual filled β-manganese structure. It is stable under oxyge…
A molecular chemical approach to the magnetic multilayers
1999
Abstract Using the bi-dimensional bimetallic networks based upon oxalate complexes, it is possible to prepare new multilayered materials by insertion of ‘electroactive’ molecules in between these layers. According to this approach a new family of compounds presenting alternating ferromagnetic—paramagnetic layers have been successfully prepared. Here we present the magnetic and specific heat characterization.

2005
Abstract The cyanide-bridged tetranuclear bimetallic rectangles ( XPh 4 ) 4 [ Fe 2 III Cu 2 II ( μ - CN ) 4 ( CN ) 8 ( L ) 2 ] · n H 2 O [X = P (1) and As (2); L = bpcam (1) and bpca (2); n = 4 (1) and 0 (2)] have been prepared and their crystal structures were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction; 1 exhibits intramolecular ferromagnetic interactions (J1 = +3.7 cm−1 and J2 = +7.0 cm−1, H = - J 1 [ S Fe ( 1 ) · S Cu ( 1 ) + S Fe ( 1 a ) · S Cu ( 1 a ) ] − J 2 [ S Fe ( 1 ) · S Cu ( 1 a ) + S Fe ( 1 a ) · S Cu ( 1 ) ] + D [ S Fe ( 1 ) z 2 + S Fe ( 1 a ) z 2 ] ) leading to a low-lying S = 2 spin state.
Unraveling the Formation of Core−Shell Structures in Nanoparticles by S-XPS
2010
The combination of the surface sensitivity of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) with the high flux and variable photon energy excitation of Synchrotron radiation (S-XPS) is used to probe the atomic distribution of bimetallic nanoparticles. Based on the energy dependence of the photoemission differential cross section of core level photoelectrons, we propose a methodology to monitor the formation and to evaluate sizes of the core−shell structure. We have successfully applied it to unveil the mechanism involved in the atomic rearrangement of thermally treated Pt0.7Pd0.3 nanoparticles.

(Ag)Pd-Fe3O4 Nanocomposites as Novel Catalysts for Methane Partial Oxidation at Low Temperature
2020
Nanostructured composite materials based on noble mono-(Pd) or bi-metallic (Ag/Pd) particles supported on mixed iron oxides (II/III) with bulk magnetite structure (Fe3O4) have been developed in order to assess their potential for heterogeneous catalysis applications in methane partial oxidation. Advancing the direct transformation of methane into value-added chemicals is consensually accepted as the key to ensuring sustainable development in the forthcoming future. On the one hand, nanosized Fe3O4 particles with spherical morphology were synthesized by an aqueous-based reflux method employing different Fe (II)/Fe (III) molar ratios (2 or 4) and reflux temperatures (80, 95 or 110 °
