Polyaniline (PANI) coatings have the capability of in situ anodic protection of stainless steels (SSs). However, these coatings have a high degradation rate in sulfuric acid. Also, the protection of SSs in a medium contaminated with chloride ions is an unsolved challenge. Therefore, the present work aims to modify the electrodeposited PANI coating with different dopants to find the optimal coating for the anodic protection of 304 SS in chloride-contaminated sulfuric acid. Thus, CHCOO, HSO, NO, HPO, and NaSO were doped electrochemically in PANI to determine the most effective corrosion depressor. Density functional theory (DF)T calculations determined that the lowest Gibbs free energy (more spontaneous doping) is for HSO doping by 24 kcal/mol. The band gap energy is <0.5 eV for the PANI/HSO coating, indicating the very high conductivity of this coating. Monte Carlo simulation revealed that the highest deformation energy is related to PANI/HSO at 1877 kcal/mol (stronger adsorption). Mott-Schottky and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) results showed that PANI doped with sulfuric acid creates a p-type semiconductor (Ni-rich), while the rest of the dopants lead to the formation of an n-type semiconductor passive film (Fe/Cr-rich). Despite the relatively low corrosion resistance of PANI/HSO in the early days, its resistance improved over time by more than 1 order of magnitude. Therefore, this seems to be a more favorable option for long-term anodic protection. Thus, in this work, the corrosion behavior of the passive film formed at the interface of PANI and SS was comprehensively evaluated.

Background: Skeletal fluorosis is a chronic metabolic bone disease caused by excessive accumulation of fluoride in the bones. Previous studies have found that when the intake of tea fluoride is similar, the prevalence of skeletal fluorosis varies greatly among different ethnic groups, which may be related to different genetic backgrounds. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and collagen type 1 α1 (COL1A1) were strongly associated with bone metabolism as well as bone growth and development, but their association with the risk of skeletal fluorosis has not been reported.

pH remains the most important chemical parameter and must be monitored for positive outcomes in areas as different as cheese making and fertilisation (IVF). Where blood gas analysers enable patient monitoring, starter cultures in cheese manufacturing are still monitored using conventional pH electrodes. Here, we present a homogeneous multiwell plate sensor for monitoring pH, with the same sensitivity as a pH electrode.

Li-rich layered oxide (LRO) cathode material is utilized in anode-free Li metal batteries to provide extra Li inventory, compensating for the constant Li loss during cycling. The Li compensation mechanism of LRO in the anode-free system is elucidated by exploring the reversible/irreversible Li consumption behaviors. Moreover, the relationship between cathode areal capacity, Li inventory, and the cycling performance of the Cu||LRO cell is quantitatively analyzed.

For Zn metal batteries, the Zn anode faces several challenges, including Zn dendrites, hydrogen evolution, and corrosion. These issues are closely related to the Zn deposition process at the electrode/electrolyte interface. Herein, we propose interfacial engineering to protect the Zn anode and induce homogeneous deposition using conjugated cyclized polyacrylonitrile (cPAN) polymer nanofibers.

Self-corrosion and low practical voltage of anodes severely limit the usage of Mg-air batteries. Although many elements, including indium (In), have been used to enhance the discharge characteristics of Mg anodes, unclear mechanism of the action of a single element and lack of research on binary alloys as anodes have restricted the development of Mg-air batteries. Herein, Mg-In ( = 0.
