Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a preparation method of a silver nanowire with a circular cross section, which relates to the field of nanometre material technologies. In the embodiments of the present application, by heating a mixed solution of the silver nanowire with the pentagonal cross section, the reducing sugar, the oxygen reducing agent and the water, an unstable silver nanowire with the pentagonal cross section are transformed into a stable silver nanowire with the circular cross section, and then the risk that a transparent conductive films based on the silver nanowires lose conductivity is avoided. In addition, in terms of an optical performance testing, compared to conductive films based on the silver nanowires with the pentagonal cross section, conductive films based on the silver nanowires with the circular cross section have significantly reduced a haze.

Abstract: A fluid conduit (10) is provided having (a) a fluid conduit exterior surface (14); (b) a fluid conduit interior surface (16); (c) an electroless nickel protective coating (18) disposed upon one or both of the fluid conduit interior surface and the fluid conduit exterior surface; and (d) a layer (20) of Ni3S2 disposed upon and substantially covering the electroless nickel protective coating. The fluid conduit can be any fluid conduit through which a fluid may be caused to pass, such as a downhole tubular used in oil and gas production, or a gas liquid cyclonic separator. And a hydrocarbon production tube, a method of producing a fluid conduit comprising a nickel sulfide protective layer, a machine component comprising at least one surface having a protective outer layer are provided. The combination of the electroless nickel inner protective coating with an outer layer of Ni3S2 affords articles such as fluid conduits and machine components with exceptional scale and corrosion resistance.
