Effects of ultrasound on heterogeneous solid-liquid systems

In this study, the effects of ultrasound on some heterogeneous chemical systems have been investigated. The results of ultrasonic irradiation of some metal and non-metal systems show that ultrasound can promote the related reactions at lower temperature and that the ultrasonic effect depends on the...

Description
Summary:In this study, the effects of ultrasound on some heterogeneous chemical systems have been investigated. The results of ultrasonic irradiation of some metal and non-metal systems show that ultrasound can promote the related reactions at lower temperature and that the ultrasonic effect depends on the frequency and power of the sonicators, the nature of the reactants, and the solvents used.
