The electrooxidation of luminol in alkaline solutions in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (I) was studied by linear sweep voltammetry on fixed and vibrating platinum electrodes. The presence of I in low concentrations (below the critical micellar concentration) brings about aggregation of the luminol, which is manifested by an increase in the anodic peak height and its shift towards lower potentials. In micellar solutions the peak height decreases owing to the slower diffusion of the bulkier micelles, the shift to lower potentials being preserved. The light-voltage curves correspond with the voltammetric curves, exhibiting identical shifts of the peak potentials in dependence on the concentration of the surfactant.

The bending test is one of the most important tests that demonstrates the advantages of functional gradient (FGM) materials, thanks to the stress gradient across the specimen depth. In this research, the flexural response of functionally graded polymeric composite material (FGM) is investigated both experimentally and numerically. Fabricated by a hand lay-up manufacturing technique, the unidirectional glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite composed of ten layers is used in the present investigation. A 3-D finite element simulation is used to predict the flexural strength based on Hashin’s failure criterion. To produce ten layers of FGM beams with different patterns, the fiber volume fraction ( Vf%) ranges from 10% to 50%. A comparison between FGM beams and conventional composite beams having the same average Vf% is made. The experimental results show that the failure of the FGM beams under three points bending loading (3PB) test is initiated from the tensioned layers, and spread to the upper layer. The spreading is followed by delamination accompanied by shear failures. Finally, the FGM beams fail due to crushing in the compression zone. Furthermore, the delamination failure between the layers has a major effect on the rapidity of the final failure of the FGM beams. The present numerical results show that the gradient pattern of FGM beams is a critical parameter for improving their flexural behavior. Otherwise, Vf% of the outer layers of the FGM beams, i.e. Vf% = 30, 40, or 50%, is responsible for improving their flexural strength.
