Palladium is commonly used as a catalyst in the process of surface metallization of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), but since palladium is expensive, alternatives are sought. In this study, colloidal silver was used as the catalyst to metallize an ABS surface, and the effect of colloidal silver on the electroless copper plating of the ABS surface under different conditions was studied. The average bonding strength was 1.37 kN/m, which is much higher than that of palladium colloid. The experimental results show that colloidal silver has good catalytic activity, and it is expected to be used in metallization of industrial non-conductive surfaces.

The (1E)-benzylidene hydrazine was tested as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.5 M HCl by using polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements at temperatures 303, 313, 323, and 333 K. The data obtained from those two methods were in good agreement with each other. The effect of an increase in temperature and a change in the concentration of the inhibitor were studied. The inhibition efficiency was found to increase with an increase in the inhibitor concentration. The maximum inhibition efficiency of 92% was observed for 500 ppm of the inhibitor at 323 K. Polarization measurements showed that the Schiff base acts as a mixed type of inhibitor involving both physisorption and chemisorption. Temperature studies revealed that the inhibition efficiency increased at temperatures up to 323 K, but, beyond that, the inhibitor efficiency decreased due to the desorption of the inhibitor. The adsorption of (1E)-benzylidene hydrazine on a mild steel surface is an endothermic process and was best described by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Both kinetic and thermodynamics adsorption parameters were calculated and discussed. The surface morphology of the uninhibited and inhibited mild steel samples was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The results obtained from the quantum chemical analysis are well correlated with other experimental ones.
在0.5 M HCl溶液中,分别在303、313、323和333 K的温度下,用极化和电化学阻抗谱测试了(1E)-苄基肼作为低碳钢的缓蚀剂。两种方法得到的数据吻合较好。研究了温度升高和抑制剂浓度变化的影响。抑制效果随抑制剂浓度的增加而增加。在323 K条件下,当浓度为500 ppm时,最大缓蚀率为92%。极化测量表明,希夫碱作为一种混合类型的缓蚀剂,包括物理吸附和化学吸附。温度研究表明,当温度达到323 K时,缓蚀剂的缓蚀效率提高,但超过323 K时,由于缓蚀剂的脱附,缓蚀剂的效率降低。(1E)-苄基肼在低碳钢表面的吸附是一个吸热过程,用Langmuir吸附等温线最能描述吸附过程。计算并讨论了吸附动力学和热力学参数。利用扫描电镜和x射线能谱分析了未抑制和抑制低碳钢样品的表面形貌。量子化学分析得到的结果与其他实验结果有很好的相关性。

This work deals with the influence of the parameters of the working fluid (hydrostatic pressure, temperature, specific electrical conductivity) and the geometry of the electrode system (the length of the interelectrode gap and the uninsulated part of the anode) on the prebreakdown characteristics of an electric discharge in a liquid aqueous electrolyte (breakdown voltage and breakdown delay time) and the minimum charging voltage, which provides a stable high-voltage breakdown of the interelectrode gap. The research has shown that an increase in the hydrostatic pressure leads to an increase in most of the characteristics under study. At the same time, an increase in the specific electrical conductivity and temperature was observed to lead to their decrease. It was suggested that the effect of temperature on the prebreakdown characteristics is associated with a change in the specific electrical conductivity of the working fluid during its heating. The data obtained showed no effect of the length of the interelectrode gap on the breakdown voltage and its breakdown delay time as well as the minimum charging voltage. The results of the experimental studies made it possible to develop a criterion for determining the charging voltage that provides a stable high-voltage breakdown of the water interelectrode gap. Its experimental verification has shown that it can be applied to the design of electric discharge equipment and to the choice of technological modes of operation in the specified range of parameters.
