Influence of solution annealing and aging treatments on the electrochemical behavior of duplex stainless steel

H. N. Shridharmurthy, S. Channabasavaraj, V. Shamanth

Duplex stainless steels are broadly employed in harsh environments because of their excellent combination of mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. But, exposure to temperatures near 475 °C can trigger microstructural degradation within the ferritic phase, which results in development of chromium enriched and Iron enriched nanophases. This transformation is known to cause embrittlement and significantly diminish corrosion resistance, affecting the durability. In this experimental study, the electrochemical p …

Rational Design of Multifunctional Tacrine Derivatives as Candidates for the Treatment of Alzheimer and Parkinson Diseases

Eugenia Dzib, Luis Felipe Hernández‐Ayala, Silvana Silva‐Aguirre, Annia Galano

Alzheimer disease (AD) and Parkinson disease (PD) are multifactorial neurodegenerative disorders for which there is currently no therapy that prevents or slows their progress. Some drugs used to treat AD are inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and antagonists of N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAr), while inhibitors of catechol‐ O ‐methyltransferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO‐B) are used for PD. Tacrine was the first FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved drug against AD. Although later withdra …
