The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced significant uncertainty across various economic sectors, most notably in the industrial sector due to the high volatility in copper futures markets. These markets play a crucial role in the construction, electrical networks, electronic products, and...

This paper examines the impact of spillover effects of energy transition metals on the Chilean economy. With the increasing demand for metals like copper and lithium due to the growth in renewable energies and electromobility, metal abundant countries like Chile must ready themselves to remain...

This senior law thesis examines the place of copper extraction in the Chilean economy and political system and the role that legal regulation played since 1850 up to the late 1960s. Copper has been the principal product of the economy and main source of foreign exchange and government revenue....

Automotive engines are made from different materials like steel, aluminium, copper, and brass. These materials usually come in contact with the fuel. This study provides corrosion rates of automotive materials copper, aluminium, and stainless steel 316l when coming in contact with chicken fat...

Cu(II)-EDTA is a highly stable typical metal-organic complex in a wide pH range (3.0-12.0) and difficult to deeply purify Cu(II) by conventional precipitation methods. In this study, Fe(III) replacement/diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) precipitation combined process was proposed as a promising...

Vanadium sulfides are appeared and investigated for the application of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their adjustable structure and high theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, their inferior sodiation/desodiation kinetics during cycling and convoluted Na + storage mechanism severely restricts...

In 1611 the young Gustav Adolf Vasa ascended the throne of Sweden as Gustav II Adolf. Along with the throne, the king inherited a disastrous war with Denmark, which he ended by signing the onerous Peace of Knäred. The terms included the obligation for Sweden to pay a one million rixdaler...

This paper introduces a model for intraday copper futures prices based on a stochastic differential equation (SDE). In particular, we derive an SDE that fits the model to the data and that is based on the whitening filter approach, a method characterizing linear time-variant systems. This method...

The development of highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for their application in electrochemical detection is desirable. Herein, a new copper nanowires (CuNWs) modified electrode was fabricated by coating poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) stabilized CuNWs composite onto the...
