Effect of mechanical stirring and temperature on dynamic hydrothermal synthesis of titanate nanotubes
2017
Abstract In the late century, it has been clearly demonstrated that titanate nanotubes (TNTs) are attractive nanomaterials with various potential applications due to their interesting properties. In this work, an essential reaction parameter, rarely considered in the literature, has been studied: stirring during hydrothermal synthesis. For this purpose, an intermittent mechanical stirring, ranging from 0 to 20 min/h, has been applied during the TNTs synthesis using a new dynamic hydrothermal reactor. It was proved that a long stirring cycle (more than 10 min/h) at 150 °C and an overall reaction time of 16 h promotes nanoribbons synthesis instead of nanotubes. In this context, a detailed mor…
Heterogeneous kinetics: from solid–gas reaction to solid–liquid dissolution
2002
Abstract The extension of the formal kinetics of solid–gas reactions to solid–liquid dissolution is investigated theoretically. The work is based on modelling the dissolution of a solid in a closed system by a stoichiometrically simple chemical reaction A solid ⇄A liquid proceeding up to either an equilibrium state if the solid phase is initially in excess or exhaustion in the reverse situation. The initial amount of solid compared to the capacity of the liquid phase appears as a major factor of complexity. First, the rate equation is formulated in terms of the intensive variables without any assumption about the mechanism and the rate-limiting step. The resulting equations are compared to …
Graphical analysis of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of two consecutive irreversible electron transfers. 2. Zinc anodic dissolution in acid m…
2006
The graphical analysis of the impedance plots is used in the study of the electrodic systems that take place through two consecutive single electron transfers. The zinc anodic dissolution is studied by using this procedure. The characteristic points easily allow us to explain and to simulate the impedance behavior of this electrodic system according to the steady-state potential and the roughness of the working electrode. The direct procedure for parametrical identification from the graphical analysis allows us to reduce the time needed for an impedance experiment. This graphical analysis is suggested for studying thin coated galvanized steels.
Correlationship between microscopic observations and electrochemical behaviour of different kind of galvanized steel.
2005
Zinc anodic dissolution has been studied according to the steel galvanized method by means of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and microscopic observations. Relevant information on the galvanized method is provided by the analysis of experimental data. The galvanized method has no influence on the kinetics parameters of the zinc anodic dissolution process. The galvanized method only changes the surface texture of the working electrode. Thus, the EIS fitting allows to calculate the fractal dimension of the surface of the working electrode.
Study on the initial stages of water corrosion of fluorozirconate glasses
2004
Abstract The surface corrosion process associated with the hydrolysis of fluorozirconate glass, ZBLAN (53ZrF 4 , 20BaF 2 , 20NaF, 4LaF 2 , 3AlF 3 ) was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), grazing-incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS), X-ray reflectivity (XRR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). After a short exposure period (25 min) of the glass surface to deionized water the XPS data indicate an increase of the oxygen content accompanied by a decrease of fluorine concentration. The analysis of the chemical bonding structure identified the predominant surface reaction products as zirconium hydroxyfluoride and oxyfluoride species. The second most abundant…

Emulsion-based systems for fabrication of electrospun nanofibers: food, pharmaceutical and biomedical applications
2017
International audience; Electrospinning is considered a promising technology for fabricating ultrafine fibers via the application of electrostatic repulsive forces. Electrospun nanofibers produced via emulsion electrospinning are widely used as delivery systems to encapsulate bioactive compounds and drugs in food and pharmaceuticals, respectively. Emulsion electrospinning has also gained significant interest for the production of vehicles for sustained and controlled release. There are several parameters affecting the properties of fabricated fibers including the type of emulsion, emulsion composition, electric field strength, conductivity of solution, surface tension, electrode configurati…
Synchronie entre l'offre et la demande dans le cycle des nutriments: apprendre des écosystèmes naturels pour construire des agrosystèmes durables
2023
Redesigning agrosystems with more ecological regulations can help feed a growing population, preserve soils for future productivity and reduce environmental impacts. However, guidelines for redesigning agrosystems from natural systems are limited. Reviewing the last knowledge of ecosystem functioning, we outlined four ecological systems synchronizing the supply of soluble nutrients by soil biota to fluctuating plant nutrient demand. This synchrony limits deficiencies and excesses of soluble nutrient, which usually penalize both production and regulating services of agrosystems such as nutrient retention and soil carbon storage. We detail how ecological systems promoting synchrony can be ins…
