Lactobacillus plantarum SIK-83 produces a bacteriocin, designated plantaricin SIK-83, which inhibits 66 of 68 lactic acid bacteria from the genera Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus and Streptococcus. A 500-fold dilution of L. plantarum SIK-83 MRS culture supernatant with phosphate buffer w...

A novel in-situ coagulation method without coagulation agent and adjusting pH value for yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) suspension via dispersant hydrolysis is reported. Sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) is used as dispersant to prepare electrostatic stabilized YSZ suspension. Influences of STPP c...

High fluidity gypsum-based materials have great potential for applying in grouting, self-leveling floors, and wall construction. Generally, high flowability can be obtained through adding superplasticizer and some salts that have retarding effect on hydration. In this study, influence of borax a...

In recent years, as a consequence of an increase in environmental awareness of consumers, issues related to the improvement of the quality of chemical products and environmental protection in the strategies of companies and international organizations have risen in importance. The paper presents...

We report the synthesis of mesoporous alumina (MA)-supported sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP)/chitosan (Ch) composite (denoted as [email protected]/Ch) by a layer-by-layer self-assembly method. The multilayered [email protected]/Ch is nontoxic and shows excellent CO2 adsorption capacity (maximum: ...

Waterborne epoxy (EP) coatings were modified by incorporating sodium tripolyphosphate pillared layered double hydroxides (STPP-LDHs) to improve their anticorrosion ability for steel structures. The structural and morphological properties of STPP-LDHs in reference to LDHs were studied comprehensi...

Sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) and sodium citrate dihydrate (sodium citrate) are the most widely used components in detergent formulations. Here, we characterized these two components on glass surfaces to assess their possible exposures from white spots on dishwasher-washed dishes. Ultraviolet/v...

A Box-Behnken design was applied to evaluate the effects of sodium chloride (NaCl, 0–2%) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP, 0–0.5%) concentrations, pressure level (100–300 MPa) and holding time (1–5min) on technological parameters, physicochemical and texture properties of beef patties. Patt...

In this study, rice glutelin isolated from glutinous rice was modified by sodium tripolyphosphate at different sodium tripolyphosphate concentrations (1%, 4%, 7%). The structural, functional and rheological properties of phosphorylated rice glutelin were investigated. The results indicated that ...

Two series of V–Mg–O catalysts with vanadium contents of 30 and 60 wt % were synthesized using sol–gel (SG) and wet impregnation (IMP). The elaborated catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray fluorescence, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, NH3–temperature-...

Owing to the high energy density, high security and low price, rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are promising candidate for the next generation of high-performance batteries. However, the development of cathode materials for RMBs is hindered by the intensive polarization of Mg2+, which te...

SummaryMagnesium-ion batteries (MIBs) show great potential for large-scale energy storage because of the advantages of low cost and safety, but their application is severely hindered by the difficulty in finding desirable electrode materials. Herein, we develop a bilayer-structured vanadium oxid...

In this study the synergistic behavior of sodium tungstate and penicillin G as an environmental-friendly co-inhibitor on pitting corrosion of 304 stainless steel in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution has been investigated. The simultaneous effect of temperature and inhibitor on inhibition efficiency has been...

This investigation describes synthesis and anion exchange of MgAl layered double hydroxides (LDHs), with the aim of achieving fabrication and clarifying the enhancement anti-corrosion properties of LDHs composite films on the magnesium alloys. Herein Mg-Al-NO3 LDHs films on the magnesium alloy s...

Anodic coatings were prepared by micro-arc oxidation on AZ91HP magnesium alloys in a base solution containing 10 g/L NaOH and 12 g/L phytic acid with addition of 0–8 g/L sodium tungstate. The effects of sodium tungstate on the coating thickness, mass gain, surface morphology and corrosion resis...

A superhydrophobic, self-healing anti-corrosion coating was prepared by in-situ growth of tungstate corrosion inhibitor intercalated layer double hydroxides (LDHs) conversion film on the AZ31B magnesium alloy and then post-sealing a hydrophobic polymer layer of ureido crosslinked polydimethylsil...

The thermodynamic equilibrium diagrams of Mg2+−PO43−−NH4+−H2O system at 298 K were established based on the thermodynamic calculation.
