Ordered mesoporous nanocrystalline titanium-carbide/carbon composites are synthesized by using a solvent-evaporation-induced self-assembly process combined with in situ carbothermal reduction (see figure). The comprise crystalline titanium carbides confined matrix of amorphous carbon pore walls. nanocomposites possess highly ordered 2D hexagonal mesostructure, large uniform pores, high surface areas and controllable content. TiC nanocrystals enhance the oxidation resistance frameworks....
Although high-entropy ceramics (HECs) are greatly attractive because of their superior properties over conventional ceramics, there is a lack reliable and effective design guidelines for producing HECs with the wished-for mechanical properties. The often-used trial-and-error testing approach or case-by-case calculations without clear ineffective expensive. Here, we propose machine-learning accelerated strategy to desired Using rock-salt as representative examples, demonstrate that determined...
The kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) have been reported to increase upon pure magnesium (Mg) surfaces, following prior anodic polarisation or corrosion.This phenomenon is termed anodically induced 'cathodic activation', which not necessarily an elementary concept.The tendencies other metals exhibit cathodic activation has systematically explored in past.In this study, experimental survey was conducted for different on basis understanding origin Mg; including Sc, Gd, La, Al,...
Abstract The real-time dissolution of the single-phase compositionally complex alloy (CCA), Al 1.5 TiVCr, was studied using an inline inductively coupled plasma method. Compositionally alloys (CCAs), a term encompassing high entropy (HEAs) or multi-principal element (MPEAs), are—in general—noted for their inherently corrosion resistance. In order to gain insight into TiVCr alloy, atomic emission spectroelectrochemistry utilised in measure ion during anodic polarisation. It revealed that...
The ability of additive manufacturing processes to control solidification at a microscopic scale is particular interest in the development components with topology-optimised microstructures. Leveraging laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), we present new methodology develop site-specific "microstructure architectures" consisting dissimilar phases. By controlling focal offset bespoke L-PBF machine, tailor melt pool shape and volume material that undergoes re-heating during each melting event....
AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel with different initial microstructures was low-temperature plasma nitrided to improve its hardness and wear resistance in the present investigation. The microstructure properties of layers on were studied by an optical microscope, X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microhardness tester, pin-on-disk tribometer, electrochemical workstation. results show that layer characteristics are highly initial-microstructure dependent. For a solid solution annealing...
Owing to the relatively lower dimensional accuracy and poorer surface finish compared other additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, directed energy deposition (DED) yields parts that often require extensive post-processing. Thus, it is well suited be combined with subtractive or deformation processes into hybrid strategies, which may enable microstructure engineering of near-net-shape directly upon production. In this work, we use a custom-made machine combines DED single point incremental...
