A model is presented which describes the effect of mechanical and materials parameters on the wear-assisted corro-sion rate of passive metals under sliding wear conditions. The model is based on a consideration of contact between the sliding surfaces at multiple asperities and it takes into account the passivation behavior of the metal. Wear experiments were carried out in a reciprocating pin-on-plate tribometer permitting the control of mechanical and electrochemical con-ditions. An alumina pin was rubbed on nickel, chromium, stainless steel, and titanium alloy plates, in sulfuric acid or sodium sulfate solution. The relative importance of mechanical and electrochemical metal removal was evaluated while applying an anodic potential. Additional experiments were performed under cathodic polarization. The results show that the proposed model can describe correctly the effect on dissolution rate of different mechanical parameters such as applied normal force, stroke length, frequency, and sliding speed. Qualitative agreement was observed with the predict-ed effect of the materials parameters hardness and passivation charge, but uncertainties concerning the real value of pas-sivation charge and, in some cases, wear of the alumina pin limit the predictive capability of the model when comparing different materials. The experimental results obtained in this study demonstrate that to understand the mutual interac-tions between mechanical and electrochemical parameters affecting wear-accelerated corrosion it is necessary to look at the tribocorrosion system as a whole.

This paper suggests that the potentiometric detection of sulfur oxides in air is feasible with solid-sulfate lectrolytes, and presents experimental results on the electrode Pt, SO2, O2/SO4 =. Several experimental parameters, namely, Ps02, temperature, and flow raSe, are studied with concentration cells using potassium sulfate, as the electrolyte. A solid reference lectrode based on an Ag/Ag + electrochemical couple is also studied as a replacement for the gas reference electrode. The autaors conclude that rapid conversion of several gaseous ulfur compounds, namely, H2S, CHsSH, etc., into oxides occurs under the cell operating conditions, and that rapid equil ibrium is reached between SO2, SOs, and 02 at the electrode. Prel iminary results of tests using solid elec-trolytes to detect other gaseous oxides in air are also given for the Pt, COs, O~ICOs =, and Pt, NO2, O2/NO3- systems. Success with solid-state oxygen detectors based on stabilized zirconia in the ppm concentration range has

Locally stabilized P1-nonconforming quadrilateral and hexahedral finite element methods for the Stokes equations. (English summary) J. Comput. Appl. Math. 236 (2011), no. 5, 714–727. In this paper a local-pressure projection stabilization method is applied to P1-P1 nonconforming quads and hexahedral finite element pairs approximating velocity and pressure in the Stokes equations. A consistent derivation of the stabilized method is provided along with a priori error estimates. Several numerical tests are presented to illustrate the stability and convergence properties predicted by the theoretical results.

The entha lpy of solut ion of oxygen in phosphor ic acid was found to be 2.2-+ 0.3 kcal mol- ', and the ent ropy of solut ion is- 12.6-+ 0.8 cal K- ' mol-'. Fundamenta l ent ropy calculat ions indicate that the large negat ive ent ropy change upon solut ion is due to the loss of three degrees of f reedom in t rans lat ion (free t rans lat ion becoming hind-ered) and two degrees of f reedom in rotat ion (only l ibrat ion occurs in solution).

The earlier stage of the polymerization reaction of polyaniline has been studied employing in situ spectroelectro-chemical techniques. The r sults indicate that the nitrene cation appears to be a key intermediate species, which leads to all three possible dimers including a head-to-tail dimer (N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine), a tail-to-tail dimer (benzidine), and a head-to-head dimer (hydrazobenzene). The oxidized forms of these dimers were all shown to be capable of growing polyaniline in the presence of aniline, even though aniline was not oxidized. The cyclic voltammetric peaks observed ur-ing the PA synthesis in the middle potential regions were shown to arise from the redox reactions of these dimers, oligo-mers, and degradation products of polyaniline including quinoneimines and p-benzoquinone. Polyaniline (PA) has received a great deal of interest as one of the conductive polymers due to its straightforward methods of preparation and the stability of its conductive form in air (1-18). PA can be prepared chemically (2, 4) or electrochemically (1, 3, 7-18) in aqueous or nonaqueous media. Only those prepared in acidic aqueous media have a conductive form. Its applications as energy storage media (2-4) and as electrochromic devices (10, 11) have been discussed. Despite much work on PA preparation methods and its various properties, its growth mechanisms in the earlier phase of the polymerization reaction still remains unclear. Recently, Stilwell and Park have reported the autocataly-tic nature of the polymerization reaction and its related ki-netic data (16). From the extensive studies, a conclusion is reached that the PA growth reaction competes with degra-dation reaction paths (16, 19). The rate of autocatalytic re-action has also been determined employing normal pulse voltammetric techniques (18). In the early studies by Mohilner et al. (1) and Bacon and Adams (20), it was shown that the formation of a radical cation upon oxidation of aniline is the rate-limiting step. The radical cation thus formed leads to dimerization prod-ucts such as benzidine and p-aminodiphenylamine

A Nernst diffusion model was employed to obtain an analytical expression for the transient current response of a reversible deposition reaction with in-soluble product occurring on a rotating disk electrode under l inear potential sweep conditions. The results indicated that for low sweep rates the current increases monotonically with ime. However, at high sweep rates a maximum value for the current density at finite values of time is predicted. The peak current density normalized with respect to the diffusion l imiting current density was found to be a l inear function of the square root of a dimensionless sweep rate. Furthermore, in this region the response of a rotating disk elec-trode is the same as that in a stagnant system. An experimental investigation based on the reversible deposition of silver showed good agreement with the theoretical predictions. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) in stagnant sys-tems has developed into a useful analytical technique

The electrochemical oxidation of adenine (6-aminopurine), which gives a single well-defined voltammetric wave at the pyrolytic graphite electrode (PGE), was investigated by macroscale controlled electrode potential at the PGE in aqueous 1M acetic acid solution (pH 2.3) with exhaustive isolation, identification, and determination of reaction products and intermediates. The electrochemical oxidation of adenine appears to follow initially the same path as the enzymatic oxidation, but further oxidation and fragmentation of the purine ring system occur. Thus, adenine is oxidized in a process in-volving a total of 6 electrons per adenine molecule to give as the pr imary product a dicarbonium ion intermediate, which, being unstable, undergoes a further series of reactions: (a) electrochemical oxidation to parabanic acid (some of which is further hydrolyzed to oxaluric acid), urea, carbon dioxide, and ammonia; (b) electrochemical reduction to give ult imately 4-aminopur-puric acid, carbon dioxide, and ammonia; and (c) hydrolysis to allantoin,

The concentration of nitrogen and oxygen in semiconductor silicon and their solubilities in silicon at its melting point have been measured by charged particle activation analysis and infrared spectrophotometry. It has been found that: (i) commercial semiconductor silicon contains less than 1 • 1015 atoms/ cm 3 of nitrogen in the un-ionized state; (ii) the solubility in solid silicon is 4.5 • 1.0 X 10 i5 atoms/cm 3 for nitrogen and 2.75 + _ 0.15 X l0 is atoms/cm ~ for oxygen; and (iii) the solubility in liquid silicon is about 6 X l0 is atoms/cm 3 for nitrogen and 2.20 __. 0.15 • l0 is atoms/cma for oxygen. Thus, the equi-l ibr ium distribution coefficient has been determined to be about 7 X 10-4 for nitrogen and 1.25 + _ 0.17 for oxygen. The solubilities of the two elements are compared with those of other elements, especially carbon, and are discussed thermochemically. After maximum purification of any semiconductor material or metal, carbon, nitrogen, or oxygen almost
