The Silences of the Archives, the Reknown of the Story. The Martin Guerre affair has been told many times since Jean de Coras and Guillaume Lesueur published their stories in 1561. It is in many ways a perfect intrigue with uncanny resemblance, persuasive deception and a surprizing end when the two Martin stood face to face, memory to memory, befor...

The photocatalytic behaviour of magnetic SrFe12O19 and SrFe11.4Al0.6O19 under visible and sun lights was evaluated using Congo red (CR) as a model dye. Synthesis of pure and Al substituted SrFe12O19 by microwave combustion method followed by calcination at 950 °C yielded single phase materials having particle sizes and surface areas in the ranges ∼...

We report the synthesis of capsule-embedded reduced graphene oxide (rGO) by photocatalytic reduction in the presence of peanut shaped alpha-Fe2O3 particles under visible light. This process is able to produce highly stabilized water dispersible rGO without the help of a stabilizer, which is suitable to make thin films on a glass substrate by the dr...

Aeschynomene aspera (AA) plant, a sustainable, waste natural carbon source, is used towards green and scalable synthesis of carbon two‐dimensional materials by simply altering the heating temperature and its composites with nickel oxide (NiO) are fabricated as an anode for high‐performance lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). Interestingly, a wide range o...
Article
Composite solid polymer electrolytes (CSPEs) are promising candidates for replacing potentially hazardous organic liquid electrolytes used in Li ion batteries (LIBs). CSPEs are easy to process, have the ability to form films, and make better interfacial contact. However, their poor mechanical strength, low ionic conductivity, and long cycling stabi...

In this study, carbon nanofibre (CNF) and vanadium-nitride-modified CNF (VNCNF) were fabricated by the electrospinning method, followed by carbonisation. The fabricated VNCNF and CNF were sandwiched between the cathode and separator to be used as interlayers. The lithium-sulphur (Li–S) cell employing the VNCNF interlayer exhibited high initial char...

Potassium‐ion batteries (PIBs) are promising alternative to Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) owing to their economic merits. However, the PIBs have not met suitable anode materials comparable to graphite in LIBs. We synthesised an orange peel‐derived mesoporous carbon (OPDMC) as a potential anode material for high performance PIBs via facile one‐step c...

This paper reports the changes in the electrochemical behavior of Cu60Zr25Ti15 bulk metallic glass (BMG) with the addition of 1 at.% Mo and Nb in 3.5 wt.% NaCl aqueous solution. Electrochemical methods employed for the study are open-circuit potential (OCP) and potentiodynamic polarization. The OCP values of the parent BMG and minor-alloyed BMGs di...

Even though ion substituted hydroxyapatite nanoparticles are associated with promising features for biomedical applications, green synthesis with precise control of size and shape to produce uniform nanoparticles remains elusive. To overcome this, we herein propose a room temperature, biomimetic approach to synthesize iron substituted nano-hydroxya...
Article
A process for the production of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) coated cold rolled steel (CRS) sheet using an industrial setup is developed and its electrochemical properties are studied. The electrochemical data reveals that rGO coating followed by a layer of sunflower oil (SO) coating suppresses the corrosion rate by ~10,000 times than the bare CRS...
Article

We report the production of an efficient anti-corrosive coating of the cold-rolled (CR) steel in a seawater environment (~3.5 wt % NaCl aqueous solution) using oil-based graphene oxide ink. The graphene oxide was produced by heating of Aeschynomene aspera plant as a carbon source at 1600 °C in argon atmosphere. The ink was prepared by cup milling t...

We report a large positive magneto-resistance (MR) in bubbles decorated graphene oxide film that is derived from shellac biopolymer as a carbon source. These films were produced on the quartz substrate by heating the biopolymer coated substrate at 900 C in argon atmosphere. The characterization data of the films using Raman, X-ray photoelectron sp...

Question
Generally it was observed in many papers that the 2D peak of rGO synthesized by solution method is not as intense as G peak, where as we get intense 2D peak when we synthesize via CVD or thermal reduction. Why this is so?
Question
I have coated rGO on quartz and by characterizing through FEGSEM I observed that some of the sheets formed bubbles, which I did not observe on glass or Si substrate. Please help me to draw a mechanism for the evolution of such morphology. For your information I have synthesized it by using a natural source, where I coated first on substrate and heated it in inert atmosphere, and in the process the source was converted to rGO. The process is able to coat rGO on any substrate which can sustain 600 degrees. I have also studied the same as function of temperature, where I got the same morphology on Quartz. Please help me to draw the mechanism for such morphology evolution.
Question
I have synthesized graphene powder and I want to apply it for corrosion prevention on steel. In order to do so I need to coat it on the substrate for which I need to disperse it in solvent, which I am unable to do. Please suggest how to achieve this.
