In this work, different conditions for electrochemically roughening silver substrates were investigated to obtain the best surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) performance. Experimental results indicate that Ag electrodes can be cycled in deoxygenated aqueous solutions containing 0.1 N HCl from −0.3 to +0.2 V vs.A…

The synthesis of well-defined, homodisperse oligoamine structures based on natural basic amino acids, so-called oligoamine "patches", is presented. They contain an intermediary number of cationic groups (exactly 11 amine groups) to allow sufficiently strong, but reversible, binding to anionic surfaces and polymers and…

The coexistence of the charge-ordered phase and the ferromagnetic phase has a strong effect on the magnetocaloric property of the nanocrystalline Pr0.65(Ca0.6Sr0.4)0.35MnO3 of average particle size 36 and 78 nm. The temperature dependence of the magnetic entropy change shows a tablelike behavior for the sample with a…

Thick porous anodic films have been prepared using high voltages in a sulphuric acid based electrolyte. The use of H2SO4 low concentration, low bath temperature and the boric acid as modifier allows the anodic porous film to be significantly thickened preventing its chemical dissolution. A new relation including the P…

ZnO nanophosphors with a diameter of 7–50 nm have been fabricated under an oxygen gas atmosphere at room temperature by evaporating ZnO powder or Zn targets using pulsed laser ablation. The size and uniformity of ZnO nanophosphors strongly depend on oxygen gas pressure. Results of cathodoluminescence analysis show str…

Bark residues are mostly used for thermal energy production. However, a better utilization of that resource could be as raw material for particleboard manufacturing. The use of bark in wood particleboard manufacturing is currently viewed negatively due to the fact that an excessive bark content in the furnish produces…
