Abstract PANI nanofibers are prepared electrochemically by template‐free method on a stainless steel electrode. Both the hydrophilicity and the lipophilicity of the modified SS surface are enhanced by the nanostructured PANI, and a super‐amphiphilic surface is obtained in this way. The influence of polymerization cond…

Abstract The Diels–Alder adduct of levopimaric acid with acrylic acid was efficiently prepared from resin acids. When the adduct was subjected to a dehydrodecarboxylation reaction, a ketone diacid derivative was obtained. New ketone type linear polymers were synthesized by the advanced dehyrodecarboxylation, a nonconv…

SF 6 is generally treated as thermally stable and inert for applications below 500 °C. This work investigates the thermal stability of pure SF 6 gas under 1.2 atm pressure between 200 and 450 °C in the presence of construction metals (Cu, Al), without any applied electric field. The obtained experimental results indic…

A hard anodization (HA) technique was employed using different mixtures of sulfuric/oxalic acid for fabrication of highly self-ordered alumina nanopore arrays. The sulfuric acid concentration was changed from 0.005 to 0.05 M and the anodization voltage was changed from 60 to 140 V. An optimum self-ordering was achieve…
