  • (Oxy)Hydroxide Electrocatalysts for Water Oxidation Bryan R
    www.acsami.org Research Article Effect of Selenium Content on Nickel Sulfoselenide-Derived Nickel (Oxy)hydroxide Electrocatalysts for Water Oxidation Bryan R. Wygant, Anna H. Poterek, James N. Burrow, and C. Buddie Mullins* Cite This: ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2020, 12, 20366−20375 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: An efficient and inexpensive electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) must be found in order to improve the viability of hydrogen fuel production via water electrolysis. Recent work has indicated that nickel chalcogenide materials show promise as electrocatalysts for this reaction and that their performance can be further enhanced with the generation of ternary, bimetallic chalcogenides (i.e., Ni1−aMaX2); however, relatively few studies have investigated ternary chalcogenides created through the addition of a second chalcogen (i.e., NiX2−aYa). To address this, we fi studied a series of Se-modi ed Ni3S2 composites for use as OER electrocatalysts in alkaline solution. We found that the addition of Se results in the creation of Ni3S2/NiSe composites composed of cross-doped metal chalcogenides and show that the addition of 10% Se reduces the overpotential required to reach a current density of 10 mA/cm2 by 40 mV versus a pure nickel sulfide material. Chemical analysis of the composites’ surfaces shows a reduction in the amount of nickel oxide species with Se incorporation, which is supported by transmission electron microscopy; this reduction is correlated with a decrease in the OER overpotentials measured for these samples. Together, our results suggest that the incorporation of Se into Ni3S2 creates a more conductive material with a less-oxidized surface that is more electrocatalytically active and resistant to further oxidation.

  • The Influence of Sodium Hydroxide Concentration on the Phase, Morphology and Agglomeration of Cobalt Oxide Nanoparticles and Application As Fenton Catalyst
    Digest Journal of Nanomaterials and Biostructures Vol.14, No.4, October-December 2019, p. 1131-1137 THE INFLUENCE OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE CONCENTRATION ON THE PHASE, MORPHOLOGY AND AGGLOMERATION OF COBALT OXIDE NANOPARTICLES AND APPLICATION AS FENTON CATALYST E.

Cubic shaped and less well defined Co3O4 nanoparticles formed at 0.2 M NaOH. An increase in the NaOH concentration increased the number of well-defined cubic shaped nanoparticles. Agglomerated CoO(OH) particles with different shapes formed at the highest NaOH concentration. The cubic shaped Co3O4 nanoparticles were subsequently used as catalyst for the Fenton degradation of methylene blue and it was found that the least agglomerated nanoparticles were the most catalytically active. (Received June 25, 2019; Accepted December 6, 2019) Keywords: Cobalt oxide, Nanoparticles, Precipitation, pH, Fenton reaction 1. Introduction Controlling the size and the shape of nanoparticles using simple, inexpensive precipitation methods without sophisticated capping molecules, remains a challenge. Literature has indicated that the concentration of the base (pH) is an important parameter to control the size, shape and phase of metal oxide nanoparticles. Obodo et al.[1] used chemical bath deposition at atmospheric pressure and 70 °C to precipitate Co3O4 crystallites on a glass substrate and they showed that the crystallite sizes were larger at a higher pH of 12 in comparison to when a pH of 10 was used.

Sodium hydroxide is extracted from seawater or other brines by industrial processes. WHAT ARE THE PRINCIPLE USES OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE? Sodium hydroxide is an ingredient of many household products used for cleaning and disinfecting, in many cosmetic products such as mouth washes, tooth paste and lotions, and in food and beverage production for adjustment of pH and as a stabilizer. In its concentrated form (lye) it is used as a household drain cleaner because of its ability to dissolve organic solids. It is also used in many industries including glassmaking, paper manufacturing and mining. It is used widely in medications, for regulation of acidity. Sodium hydroxide may be used to counteract acidity in swimming pool water, or in drinking water. IS SODIUM HYDROXIDE NATURALLY PRESENT IN DRINKING WATER? Yes, because sodium and hydroxide ions are common natural mineral substances, they are present in many natural soils, in groundwater, in plants and in animal tissues.

  • Aluminium Distearate, Aluminium Hydroxide Acetate, Aluminium Phosphate and Aluminium Tristearate
    The European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products Veterinary Medicines Evaluation Unit EMEA/MRL/393/98-FINAL April 1998 COMMITTEE FOR VETERINARY MEDICINAL PRODUCTS ALUMINIUM DISTEARATE, ALUMINIUM HYDROXIDE ACETATE, ALUMINIUM PHOSPHATE AND ALUMINIUM TRISTEARATE SUMMARY REPORT 1. Aluminium is an ubiquitous element in the environment. It is present in varying concentrations in living organisms and in foods. Aluminium compounds are widely used in veterinary and human medicine. Other uses are as an analytical reagent, food additives (e.g. sodium aluminium phosphate as anticaking agent) and in cosmetic preparations (aluminium chloride). Aluminium distearate is used for thickening lubricating oils. Aluminium hydroxide acetate and phosphate are antacids with common indications in veterinary medicine: gastric hyperacidity, peptic ulcer, gastritis and reflux esophagitis. A major use of antacids in veterinary medicine is in treatment and prevention of ruminal acidosis from grain overload, adsorbent and antidiarrheal. The dosage of aluminium hydroxide is 30 g/animal in cattle and 2 g/animal in calves and foals. Gel preparations contain approximately 4% aluminium hydroxide. Aluminium potassium sulphate is used topically as a antiseptic, astringent (i.e. washes, powders, and ‘leg tighteners’ for horses (30 to 60 g/animal) and antimycotic (1% solution for dipping or spraying sheeps with dermatophilus mycotic dermatitis). In cattle it is occasionally used for stomatitis and vaginal and intrauterine therapy at doses of 30 to 500 g/animal. In human medicine, aluminium hydroxide-based preparations have a widespread use in gastroenterology as antacids (doses of about 1 g/person orally) and as phosphate binders (doses of about 0.8 g/person orally) in patients an impairment of renal function.
