The performance of this model has therefore been verified as described earlier in Fig. 2, which plots the predicted data as a function of actual data.
When Si wafer is immersed in a solution of AgNO3/HF followed by HF/H2O2 solution, the oxidation-reduction reactions involved can be explained by the following mechanisms [16, 17]: Ag++e-→Ag (3) Si+2H2O→SiO2+4H++4e- (4) SiO2+6HF→H2SiF6+2H2O (5) 4H2O2+Si→SiO2+4H2O+O2 (6) SiO2+6HF→H2SiF6+2H2O (7) In the first reaction (Eq. 3), Ag+ ions lose electrons to produce Ag particles deposited on the Si surface.
This causes the etching rate to become lower with increasing time due to reduction in concentration of Ag+ ions responsible for vertical etching.
However, after sometime, the etching rate starts to decrease despite increased H2O2 concentration due to depletion of reduction in Ag particles and Ag+ ions supply.

After standing for 4 h to make the reduction reaction complete, the Pt hydrosol was then mixed with 10 ml 1 ×10-3 mol dm-3 DDT ethanol solution.
The impedance data was fitted using the corresponding equivalent circuits.
It can be seen from that the characteristic absorption peak of PtCl6-2 at 280 nm disappeared completely after the reduction of the H2PtCl6 with NaBH4 indicating the formation of Pt nanoparticles[20].
In the 0.5 mol dm-3 H2SO4 solution, the corrosion reaction at iron surface consists of the anodic dissolution of iron and the cathodic reduction of the hydrogen ions.
The values of protectionefficiencies are consistent with the data calculated from the electrochemical impedance spectra.

For the studies on influence of high temperature ageing on the J-R curves of SS 316(N) weld, the fracture tests at room temperature were carried out using unloading compliance method for crack length estimation, while those at high temperature were carried out using multiple specimen method as well as normalization data reduction technique.
For 643 K, DCPD was used for as-welded & 823 K/1000 h aged specimens and normalisation data reduction as well as multiple specimen method for 923 K/4200 h aged specimens.
Fig.7: Variation of (a) J0.2 and (b) % reduction in area for 316 (N) welds tested at 298 K with duration of ageing at different temperatures.
Subsequent reduction in toughness is due to the transformations taking place in the d ferrite regions of the weld metal.
It is the formation of a¢ phase that leads to reduction in toughness.

The active hydrogen may be responsible for the reduction of metal ions in the formation of nanoparticles [5][6][8][10].
UV-Vis spectrum analysis The bio-reduction of Fe-NPs in aqueous solutions was monitored by measuring UV/Vis spectrum.
It was suggested to be responsible for iron reduction, with the broad peaks at 2900 cm−1 attributed to methyl C-H stretching.
Usually, the reduction of pollutants' concentrations with an increased dose of iron nanoparticles is a surface function.

Abstract: The grain boundary character distributions (GBCDs) of two 304-type austenitic stainless steel samples, which are cold rolled with the same thickness reduction of 6% and then subjected to different annealing treatments are examined by Electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques.
Two samples, which had previously been solid solution treated at 1323K for 0.5h and cold rolled with the thickness reduction of 6%, are subjected to single and two-step annealing treatment, respectively.
The data are plotted in stereographic projection along [001].

Microsoft Excel and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) was used to analyze the experimental data.
The collected data from soil amendment trials involving biochar from banana peels and bunch stalks was computed into Excel spreadsheets.
The addition of banana stalk biochar led to a 15% reduction in hydraulic conductivity of sandy soil, while banana peel biochar resulted in a 10% reduction (as shown in Tables 1 - 2).

The exponential decay rate formulas for the two flavors were obtained from experimental data and the solution of the theoretical model.
The simulated emission processes of the two flavor components were compared with experimental data as shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 (R2=0.983 and 0.958 respectively).
