Nanoparticles reduce nickel allergy by capturing metal ions

TL;DR: It is shown that applying a thin layer of glycerine emollient containing nanoparticles of either calcium carbonate or calcium phosphate on an isolated piece of pig skin and on the skin of mice prevents the penetration of nickel ions into the skin.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Wagner plot and the Auger parameter as tools to separate initial- and final-state contributions in X-ray photoemission spectroscopy

TL;DR: The application of the Wagner plot and Auger parameter concepts as tools for the identification of chemical states of atoms in molecules or solids is growing steadily in the surface science literature as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deoxygenation of oleic acid: Influence of the synthesis route of Pd/mesoporous carbon nanocatalysts onto their activity and selectivity

TL;DR: In this article, Pd NPs were synthesized by decomposition of [Pd 2 (dba) 3 ] (dbenzylideneacetone) under dihydrogen either directly on the carbon supports without stabilizer leading to naked Pd nanoparticles (Pd/MB series) or in solution in the presence of a stabilizer (polymer or triphenylphosphine (TPP series)) to obtain stable colloidal solutions that were further used to impregnate the carbon materials to have carbon-deposited NPs.

Phosphorus grain boundary segregation in steel 17-4PH

TL;DR: In this paper, a correlation between grain boundary etching of a martensitic steel and phosphorus segregation was established using metallographic experiments, the phosphorus diffusivity D in the steel and the Gibbs free energy ΔGP of phosphorus grain boundary segregation were determined: D=0.183 −0.174 +3.4 exp (−229±19 kJ mol −1 /RT) m2−s−1, ΔGP=−43.1 kJ−mol−1.

The effect of preparation conditions on the properties of high-surface area Ni2P catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of preparation conditions on the properties of unsupported, high surface area Ni 2 P catalysts, prepared by adding citric acid (CA) to precursor metal salt solutions prior to drying, calcination and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), is reported.
