The present study examined the corrosion protection of aluminium in 1M HCl by deploying expired danacid, with techniques such as gravimetric, electrochemical, and density functional theory (DFT). Inhibitor characterization was executed with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS), which was supplemented by optimization of parameters with response surface methodology. The results of gravimetric study indicates that the inhibition efficiency (IE) rose with rise in danacid concentration and reduced with rise in temperature.

Menthyl acetate powered self-propelled Janus sponge Marangoni motors with self-maintaining surface tension gradients and active mixing.

Hypothesis: Small scale Marangoni motors, which self-generate motion by inducing surface tension gradients on water interfaces through release of surface-active "fuels", have recently been proposed as self-powered mixing devices for low volume fluids. Such devices however, often show self-limiting lifespans due to the rapid saturation of surface-active agents. A potential solution to this is the use volatile surface-active agents which do not persist in their environment.

Article Synopsis
  • Cyclodextrins (CDs) can effectively stabilize and enhance the use of fragrant ester molecules in food, tobacco, and pharmaceuticals, which often have strong odors and storage issues.
  • The study used both molecular modeling and experiments to show that ester aroma compounds can be encapsulated within β-CD molecules, although with low binding affinity, relying on hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions.
  • FTIR, NMR, and ITC experiments confirmed these interactions, and the research found differences in release rates of aroma compounds based on their molecular structure, suggesting potential applications for improving industries that use these compounds.
