Item Adsorption and inhibitor action of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone on 6061 Al/SiC composite and its base alloy in sulfuric acid medium(2011) Geetha, G.M.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.The inhibitive action of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DMABT) on the corrosion behavior of 6061 Al -15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy was studied at different temperatures in sulfuric acid medium containing varying concentrations of it, using Tafel extrapolation technique and AC impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Results showed that DMABT was an effective inhibitor, showing inhibition efficiency of 70% in 0.5 M sulfuric acid. The adsorption of DMABT on both the composite and base alloy was found to be through physisorption obeying Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The thermodynamic parameters such as free energy of adsorption and activation parameters were calculated. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Item High rate capable and high energy supercapacitor performance of reduced graphene oxide/Al(OH)3/polyaniline nanocomposite(Academic Press Inc., 2020) Viswanathan, A.; Gururaj Acharya, M.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.The high rate capable, high energy (higher than the lead acid batteries & Nickel-cadmium batteries and comparable with Li-ion batteries) and long lasting supercapacitive performance was achieved from a ternary nanocomposite of rGO/Al(OH)3/PANI (5.88%:11.77%:82.85%) (GAlP82). The GAlP82 exhibited high cyclic stability till 47,500 cycles at 400 mV s?1, with increasing trend of specific capacitance (Cs) with increase in No. of energy storage/delivery cycles. After 41,500 cycles the GAlP82 exhibited a Cs of 490.19 F g?1, an energy density (E) of 98.03 W h kg?1 and a power density (P) of 2.2829 kW kg?1 at 1 A g?1. The GAlP82 exhibited a good rate capability by retaining 73% of Cs up to 10 A g?1 before cyclic stability study and 33% of Cs up to 23 A g?1 after 41,500 cycles; and all these impressive performances are achieved from the symmetric supercapacitor cell of GAlP82. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
