  1. 1. Dissociative Adsorption of CO2 on Copper: The Role of Steps

    Author : Benjamin Hagman; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; koppar; CO2; Copper surface; Carbon Dioxide : chemistry; Dissociative adsorption; Surface oxidation; Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy APXPS ; Surface X-ray diffraction SXRD ;

    Abstract : CO2 chemistry has received significant interest in recent time, due to the greenhouse effects of CO2 emissions and the resulting climate change. CO2 reduction reactions, such as methanol synthesis and reverse water-gas shift, is providing a route for recycling of CO2 and thus limiting the CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Synthesis and Characterisation of Potential Hydrogen Storage Materials

    Author : Emil Johansson; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Astrid Pundt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Hydrogen; adsorption; absorption; thermodynamics; thin films; carbon nanostructures; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The dissociative and non-dissociative hydrogen uptake in carbon nanostructures and metallic films were investigated by measurements and analysis of solubility isotherms. The total, non-dissociative, uptake for multi-walled nano-barrels and amorphous nanoporous carbon was determined to be 6.2 and 4.2 wt. READ MORE

  4. 4. Initial Oxidation Kinetics of Al(111): A Monte Carlo Study

    Author : Dogan Ergun Oner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oxide nucleation and growth; dissociative adsorption; metal oxidation; Monte Carlo simulations; Al 111 ; kinetics; aluminium; surface oxidation;

    Abstract : Almost all metals around us have a thin oxide layer on top of the bulk metal underneath. Often this oxide film protects the metal against further oxidation, or corrosion. Examples are the oxide film that makes stainless steel "stain-less" or the ones on titanium and aluminium alloys, which are very corrosion resistant. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dynamics of Molecular Adsorption on Metal Surfaces

    Author : Christer Engdahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this Thesis different aspects of dissociative chemisorption and of scattering and trapping in a physisorption potential are investigated, mainly by means of classical trajectory calculations. In papers I-III the sticking coefficients of hydrogen on copper and nickel are calculated using a multidimensional effective-medium potential which takes the molecular orientation as well as the surface structure into account.
