Surface structural alteration of multi-walled carbon nanotubes decorated by nickel nanoparticles based on laser ablation/chemical reduction methods to enhance hydrogen storage properties
摘要： The catalytic effect of nickel is addressed to decorate the multi-walled carbon nanotubes for the purpose of hydrogen storage. The hydrogen sorption/desorption are investigated using the volumetric technique. Nickel nanoparticles are distributed on the surface of nanotubes using the laser ablation/chemical reduction treatments. The hydrogen uptake is elevated at higher nickel population up to a certain value and then experiences a significant drop for larger nickel content. The laser treatment is accompanied by the induced pores around nanotubes. This gives rise to the creation of the larger pores at higher laser doses leading to decrease the hydrogen trapping. Despite the pore size distribution strongly alters during both synthesis methods, however the abundance of small pore size in laser treatments is relatively higher than the that of the other technique. In comparison, the laser ablation demonstrates a relatively smaller desorption temperature against chemical one, mainly owing to the formation of larger pore size/volume. Generally, the hydrogen trapping efficiently takes place in the laser treated samples against chemical reduction method. The highest value of hydrogen storage ~1% (0.6% weight) is corresponding to 12.3% (13% weight) of nickel loading via the laser ablation (chemical reduction).

[Laser Institute of America ICALEO? 2015: 34th International Congress on Laser Materials Processing, Laser Microprocessing and Nanomanufacturing - Atlanta, Georgia, USA (October 18–22, 2015)] International Congress on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics - Microstructural effects induced by laser shock peening for mitigation of stress corrosion cracking
摘要： Stress corrosion cracking is a phenomenon that can lead to rapid, sudden failure of metallic products. In this paper we examine the mechanisms of SCC mitigation of stainless steel and brass samples using laser shock peening (LSP). The behavior of hydrogen within the crystal lattice is one of the most dominant contributors to SCC, where uptake of hydrogen strains the lattice and increases its hardness. Cathodic charging of the metallic samples in 1M sulfuric acid was performed in order to accelerate hydrogen uptake. Non-treated samples underwent hardness increases of 28%, but LSP treated samples only increased in the range of 0 to 8%, indicative that LSP keeps hydrogen from permeating into the metal. Mechanical U-bends subjected and MgCl2 environments are analyzed, to determine changes in fracture morphology. Surface chemical effects are addressed via Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy, which is used for finding changes in the work function caused by LSP treatment. A finite element model of material deformation from U-bending was developed to analyze and compare the induced stresses. With LSP, there is a potential for overprocessing the samples, whereby negative effects refinement, to corrosion martensite formation) can arise. Detection of any martensite phases formed is performed using x-ray diffraction. We find LSP to be beneficial for stainless steel but does not improve brass’s SCC resistance. With our analysis methods we provide a further understanding of the process whereby LSP reduces subsequently highlight SCC for important implementation of the process.
