It is now recognised that electrodeposition allows the preparation of stable coatings with different phase structures and a wide range of surface morphologies.

In addition to applications as a cheap anode material in 20 electrochemical technology, lead dioxide coatings provide unique possibilities for probing the dependence of catalytic activity on layer composition and structure (256 references). 25 1.

  • Research & Development
    PCA RP348 RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT Stabilization of Heavy Metals in Portland Cement, Silica Fume/Portland Cement and Masonry Cement Matrices by Javed I. Bhatty, F. MacGregor Miller, Presbury B. West, and Börje W. Öst RP348 99 ABSTRACT The effects of heavy metals on the physical and chemical properties of portland-cement based pastes were studied using different types of cement, four metal oxides, and four soluble metal salts. Type I (high cal- cium aluminate content) and Type V (low calcium aluminate content) portland cements were used to study the effects of their chemical differences on paste properties and metal stabilization. Fresh pastes were tested for workability, initial setting times, and heats of hydration. Hardened pastes were tested for strength and leachability by both TCLP (Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure) and column leaching with acetic acid. The cement matrix was an excellent stabilization matrix, better than could be projected from pH consid- erations alone. The investigation also involved examining Type I portland cement paste treated with three metals to- gether—chromium, cadmium and lead, added at very high (1% by mass of cement) and intermediate (1000 ppm by mass of cement) levels. The leaching solutions were acetic acid, “synthetic acid rain” (pH 3 sulfu- ric/nitric acid), and deionized water. A Type N masonry cement matrix was also investigated. The leachabilities were very low throughout the pH range of 6-11 for lead and chromium. At very high pH values, the leachabilities of lead and chromium were significantly higher. Cadmium leachability was neg- ligible above pH 10, but became rapid and highly significant below pH 9.

In order to obatin uniform morphology , narrowest size distribution and best composition of lead dioxide nanoparticles, the effect of experimental variables such as concentration of sulfuric acid, bath temperature, pulse frequency and pulse height (current amount), have been investigated. For conversion of all synthesized species to lead dioxide, each prepared sample was oxidized by low voltage method. The composition, morphology and structure were investigated using Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction techniques (XRD). XRD results revealed lead dioxide samples, prepared under optimized experimental conditions, contain only PbO 2 in the range of 24-32 nm. Electrochemical behavior of the prepared electrodes was studied by cyclic voltammetry. The obtained results indicate that pulsed current electrochemical method can be used as a confident and controllable method for direct preparation of the lead dioxide nanoparticles on lead substrate. The lead dioxide synthesized in the optimum conditions showed an excellent discharge capacity (230 mA.h/g) when it was used as the cathode of lead-acid batteries.

In order to obtain further evidence of the existence of such an oxide, a series of experiments, on the polarisation and discharge of lead and lead dioxide anodes in alkali, was carried out. Since the electrode potentials of the known oxides of lead in A'-sodium hydroxide have already been determined, measurements of potential during polarisation and discharge should give information regarding the existence of any oxides in addition to those with which we are already familiar. Elbs and Forssell (2. Elektrochem., 1902, 8, 760) found that at low current densities a lead anode dissolves in N-sodium hydroxide as bivalent ions, but at higher densities the lead no longer dissolves, but lead dioxide is deposited, and oxygen is evolved. These authors attribute the evolution of gas to the decomposition of the dioxide into monoxide and oxygen, and state that this reaction occurs at a potential 0-23 volt more positive than that required for the deposition of lead dioxide from a solution of N-sodium hydroxide View Article Online 2092 GLASSTONE : saturated with lead monoxide.

  • Lots of Lead in the Water? Maybe Manganese Is to Blame
    7/30/2019 Lots Of Lead In The Water Maybe Manganese Is To Blame News | July 23, 2019 Lots Of Lead In The Water? Maybe Manganese Is To Blame Researchers have found the naturally occurring mineral can speed up the production of lead dioxide under certain circumstances Manganese is not a particularly toxic mineral. In fact, people need a little in their diets to remain healthy. Research at Washington University in St. Louis has shown however, that in conjunction with certain other chemicals, naturally occurring manganese can lead to big changes in the water in lead pipes. Depending on what disinfectants are used in the water, those changes can have significant — even dangerous — consequences. The results were recently published in Environmental Science and Technology. The research focuses on a unique form of lead, PbO2 or lead dioxide (lead in the plus-4 oxidation state). Lead dioxide has a very low water solubility — it does not easily dissolve in water alone. It is also uncommon in nature, unlike the more familiar PbCO3, the lead carbonate that makes up the scales that tend to form on pipes. “You don’t find PbO2 in the environment because there is no strong oxidizing agent,” said Daniel Giammar, the Walter E. Browne Professor of Environmental Engineering at the McKelvey School of Engineering. “But good disinfectants are often good oxidizing agents.” Chlorine is a great disinfectant, so much so that it’s used commonly in drinking water in America and across the world. It is also good oxidizing agent and promotes the transformation of lead carbonate to lead dioxide.

  • AP-42, CH 12.16: Lead Oxide and Pigment Production
    12.16 Lead Oxide And Pigment Production 12.16.1 General1-2,7 Lead oxide is a general term and can be either lead monoxide or "litharge" (PbO); lead tetroxide or "red lead" (Pb3O4); or black or "gray" oxide which is a mixture of 70 percent lead monoxide and 30 percent metallic lead. Black lead is made for specific use in the manufacture of lead acid storage batteries. Because of the size of the lead acid battery industry, lead monoxide is the most important commercial compound of lead, based on volume. Total oxide production in 1989 was 57,984 megagrams (64,000 tons). Litharge is used primarily in the manufacture of various ceramic products. Because of its electrical and electronic properties, litharge is also used in capacitors, Vidicon® tubes, and electrophotographic plates, as well as in ferromagnetic and ferroelectric materials. It is also used as an activator in rubber, a curing agent in elastomers, a sulfur removal agent in the production of thioles and in oil refining, and an oxidation catalyst in several organic chemical processes. It also has important markets in the production of many lead chemicals, dry colors, soaps (i. e., lead stearate), and driers for paint. Another important use of litharge is the production of lead salts, particularly those used as stabilizers for plastics, notably polyvinyl chloride materials. The major lead pigment is red lead (Pb3O4), which is used principally in ferrous metal protective paints. Other lead pigments include white lead and lead chromates. There are several commercial varieties of white lead including leaded zinc oxide, basic carbonate white lead, basic sulfate white lead, and basic lead silicates.

University of Washington Abstract Impact of structure and defect modification on vanadium oxide for alkali-ion battery electrodes Evan Uchaker Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Guozhong Cao Materials Science and Engineering The proliferation of portable electronics and electric vehicles paired with the updating of an antiquated grid system has driven the rapid progression of improved technologies related to energy distribution and storage. However, energy storage materials and devices have come to be viewed as a crux impeding advanced device development. Alkali-ion, namely lithium and sodium, batteries are a robust technology that has seen gains in performance based on materials chemistry over the past several decades. Despite years of intensive research ac- companied with significant progress, the cathode remains a limiting factor towards improved battery performance because of its low capacity and exasperated degradation over long term cycling; the cathode is also one of the most expensive material components of the overall cell. Thus, research concerning new cathode material development and the improvement of already well-established cathode materials should be a top priority. Within this context, vanadium oxide is an ideally suited model material showcasing how structural or chemical alterations can have tremendous impact on device performance.
