Aging behavior of oxygen plasma-treated polypropylene with different crystallinities

TL;DR: Oxygen plasma-treated quenched and annealed polypropylene (PP) films with different crystallinities were investigated to characterize the surface rearrangement behavior during aging using contact-angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low temperature XPS studies of NO and N2O adsorption on Al(100)

TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption of NO and N 2 O on clean and oxygen saturated Al(100) single crystal was studied at low temperatures (down to 80 K) by means of XP spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

HDS of dibenzothiophene over polyphosphates supported on mesoporous silica

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal stability and properties of the supported molybdophosphoric and tungstophosphates were discussed in terms of support effect, and the HPMo/ZrAlHMS catalyst had higher activity and selectivity to biphenyl formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of the spinels MxCo1−xFe2O4 (M = Mn, Fe or Ni) using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this article, the binding energies of photoelectron peaks observed for the transition metal ions were recorded and the observed surface segregation of certain elements were interpreted in terms of kinetic and thermodynamic factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of KCN etching on the chemical and electronic surface structure of Cu2ZnSnS4 thin-film solar cell absorbers

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical and electronic surface structure of thin-filmsolar cell absorbers has been investigated by direct and inverse photoemission, with particular emphasis on the impact of KCN etching, which significantly alters the surface composition and is best explained by a preferred etching of Cu and, to a lesser degree, Sn.
