Mechanistic switch in corrosion behavior of magnesium alloy diamond lattice structures induced by argon plasma treatment by Viviana M. Posada, Alexandru Marin, Tonny Naranjo, Juan Ramírez, Patricia Fernández-Morales

“…This study reveals a mechanistic switch in the corrosion behavior of Mg alloy (3.6% Al, 0.8% Zn) diamond lattice structures, induced by plasma nanosynthesis (400 eV Ar+ ions, fluence 1 × 1017 ions/cm2). Plasma treatment of the Mg alloy increases surface Mg from 1.5% to 14.5%, enhances carbonate formation, and generates a nanostructured surface with a Mg carbonate layer over an oxide/hydroxide layer. …”

Electrochemical Properties of Silver Nanoparticle Doped Aminosilica Nanocomposite by Yong-Jae Choi, Tzy-Jiun M. Luo

“…The electrochemical properties of silver nanoparticle (d∼ 5 nm) synthesized within aminosilica film from spontaneous reduction reaction were examined using cyclic voltammetry and the results show that the nanocomposite film exhibits similar redox property as solution-synthesized silver nanoparticles when measuring in phosphate buffer solution and its redox potentials were found to be sensitive to the presence of chloride ions. It also shows that silver nanoparticles and hydrolyzed aminosilica increase the electron diffusivity of the aminosilica film. …”
