Pressure-induced chemical decomposition and structural changes of boric acid

Article Abstract:

A combined synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman scattering and infrared spectroscopy study of the pressure-induced changes in H3BO3 to 10 GPa has demonstrated a new high-pressure phase transition between 1 and 2 GPa followed by chemical decomposition into cubic HBO2, ice-VI and ice-VII. The results are used to propose a mechanism for pressure-induced dehydration of H3BO3 that implies a proton disorder in the system.

Behavior of p-type GaAs in an aerated boric acid solution at the open-circuit potential: influence of the presence of Co(II) ions

Article Abstract:

The experiment was done where the electroless dissolution of p-GaAs in aerated 0.5 M boric acid solution, in presence and absence of Co(II) ions in the solution was reported. The results show that the oxidation rate of p-GaAs in an aerated boric acid solution increases in presence of Co(II) in the solution.

Effects of novel boric acid esters on ion transport properties of lithium salts in nonaqueous electrolyte solutions and polymer electrolytes

Article Abstract:

Three novel polymerizable anion receptors based on boric acid esters is synthesized. Findings reveal that the addition of these monomers enhanced the ionic conductivity of certain electrolyte solutions comprised of an aprotic organic solvent of low polarity and a lithium salt of low dissociation ability.
