Challenges in the Commercialization of Lithium (Li)–Sulphur (S) Batteries †
Abstract: Li-S batteries can be used in drones owing to their high gravimetric energy density (2600 Wh/kg of sulphur) as well as the high theoretical specific capacity values (1674 mAh/g) values. Most of the ground breaking inventions in energy sources occurred during war time (1st September 1939-2nd September 1945), including the discovery of the famous nuclear fission process that lead to the origin of the little boy and the fat man. …

Polymeric Coating Applied for Corrosion Protection of Mild Steel in Corrosive Medium
Abstract: Mild steel is coated with a polymer layer of polybutadiene for protection. However, this coating does not effectively safeguard the metal in environments containing moisture, sulphur dioxide, or chloride. These pollutants interact with the polybutadiene-coated surface, creating a highly corrosive atmosphere. Moisture condenses on the coated metal surface and absorbs sulphur dioxide, forming sulphuric acid. This acid initiates both chemical and electrochemical reactions with the polymer-coated metal, accelerating the corrosion …
