In this work, RIMAPS technique is extended to predict the topographic pattern produced by etching metallic surfaces, using aluminum to give examples of RIMAPS prediction capability. The remarkable coincidence of peaks ...

The preparation and characterization of superhydrophobic membranes formed on metal meshes (brass and bronze) by coating from stearic acid is presented. The membranes were prepared by two methods: electrolysis and acid ...

We report the optimal conditions for copper recovery on a laboratory scale through a cementation process from industrial waste solutions. As cementing agent, aluminum was employed from different sources: discarding aluminum ...

In recent years there has been increasing interest in the development of new methods for conferring functional features to nanopore-based fluidic devices. In this work, we describe for the first time the noncovalent ...

Mesoporous metal chalcogenides (e.g., ZnS, CuS, and derived mixed sulfide or selenides) show an extremely high potential in technological areas like catalysis, sensors, environmental protection, and photovoltaics. Although ...
