An alkaline bath was developed for electroless deposition of Co–W–P thin films on a copper substrate. Effects of pH values, various concentrations of reducing agent, and different powers of ultrasonic on composition, microstructure, and magnetic properties of the films were investigated. It...

Sm-Co permanent magnets are usually very brittle which makes them vulnerable to even mild impacts. Recently, it is reported by simulation and confirmed by experiment that SmCo 5 can be plastically deformed via amorphous shear bands activated by external stress Since most Sm-Co magnets mainly...

An intensive sampling program was conducted at two coastal sites of megacity Shanghai - the emerging town Lingang New Area (LGNA), and the chemical-industry zone Jinshan Area (JSA) from July, 2016 - June, 2017, to study the environmental behavior and fate of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic...

Surface coordination unsaturation cation in hydrotalcite-derived CoAl oxides is crucial to improve catalytic performance during soot combustion. Herein, the hydrotalcites-derived Co 2-x Ni x AlO catalysts were prepared by the co-precipitation method. The characteristic nanosheet structure of...
