Summary: In this work, a novel PAN-based acidic sulfate copper electroplating process is developed for compact, homogeneous, and conformal copper thickening of through holes (TH). The adsorption characteristics, electrochemical properties, and interaction mechanisms of three additives (PEG, SPS, and PAN) are studied. SEM and OM analysis show that PAN leads to fine-grained copper coating and high throwing power in TH. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that PAN has the highest binding energy with the copper surface among the three additives. Cyclic voltammetry experiments confirm the accelerated and weakly suppressed copper electrodeposition by PAN at the center and mouth of TH, respectively. The addition of PAN to the solution containing PEG and SPS significantly decreases the relative electric charge, achieving closer copper electronic electroplating rate at the center and mouth of TH. The complex synergistic effects of PEG, SPS, and PAN contribute to the compact, homogeneous, and conformal copper thickening of TH.

Summary: Ligands play a crucial role in the determination of cadmium in rice samples using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). In this study, a comparative evaluation of 10 commercially available ligands for the formation of Cd(II)-ligand complex and determination of cadmium in rice samples was conducted using ultrasound-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (UADLLME) combined with FAAS. Sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) was identified as the most suitable ligand, and 1-heptanol and ethanol were chosen as the extraction and disperser solvent, respectively. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the method exhibited a low detection limit and good recovery rates for Cd(II) in different rice samples. The proposed method offers simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and accuracy for the analysis of Cd(II) in rice.

Summary: This study examined the mobility of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in contaminated soils and road dusts in Volos, Greece. The results showed that lead and zinc had the highest remobilization potential, while nickel, chromium, and iron had low mobility. The extractability of PTEs in soil samples was controlled by carbonate content and organic matter, while magnetic susceptibility played a key role in the geochemical partitioning of PTEs in road dust. It was suggested that sequential extraction procedures should be combined with source identification of PTEs to better estimate their remobilization in soil and road dust influenced by industrial emissions.
