Lithium ion batteries (LIB) are widely applied to energy storage systems, like electric vehicles, ships. While limited reserves of lithium and cost of lithium enforced to explore new materials. Hence, Low cost and abundance ...

In this study, the self-healing process in concrete through microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) performed by an adapted indigenous strain of Bacillus cereus isolated from soils in Qatar was investigated. ...

This work presents a recent progress on the polyanionic phosphate family that functions as cathode materials in sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Firstly, this study will cover vanadium-containing frameworks that show very ...

The application of Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in portable electronics and electric vehicles (EVs) has increased in the past decade. Extended commercialization of LIBs for advanced applications requires the development ...

Abstract Ni-Co-TiO2 nano-composite coatings were electroplated on mild steel by adding transparent TiO2 sol (0-50 mL/L) into the Ni-Co plating solution. The microstructure, mechanical property and corrosion resistance of ...

Ni-Co coatings are widely used due to their unique mechanical properties, high anticorrosion properties, good thermal stability and special magnetic properties. Ni-Co-xTiO2 (x = 0-20 g/L in the electrolyte) composite ...

Corrosion is a major cause of materials and equipment failure in the oil and gas industry, and its prevention is crucial to ensure reliability of the assets. Towards, this goal, Ni-B/AlN nanocomposite coatings were synthesized ...

Ni-B coatings have decent properties like high hardness, wear resistance and decent anticorrosion properties which make them suitable for automotive, aerospace, petrochemical, textile and electronics industries. In the ...

This chapter briefly describes the challenges and developments in the field of corrosion focusing on the subject of materials science. A brief introduction was provided on corrosion damage and the importance of its prevention. ...

Corrosion damages and the importance of its prevention has been presented. An overview of previous research on Ni-B (and Ni-P) coatings has been presented. Synthesis and characterization of electrodeposited Ni-B and Ni-B-Y2O3 ...
