In order to improve the corrosion resistance and biological activity of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coating on Mg alloys, a puerarin-loaded (PL) coating was prepared and applied on the MAO coating by the method of dipcoating in physic acid (PA) solution with puerarin. The chemical and morphological characterizations of the coatings were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The corrosion properties of the coatings were studied by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in simulated body fluid (SBF). Besides, the bioactivity properties of the coatings in SBF were investigated following 3, 7, and 14 days of immersion. The results indicate that the defects of through-pores weaken the corrosion resistance of the MAO and PL coatings with a high cross-link density sealing of the pores of the MAO coating. The higher initial impedance, lower current density, and loss of weight show that PL coatings have higher corrosion resistance than do MAO coatings. Furthermore, PL coatings improve the bioactivity of the MAO coating by accelerating apatite mineralization. The use of such a coating is expected to promote the application of Mg in bone repair materials and improve bone healing rate in the early stages of implantation.

Chaos signatures of current phase transition in a toroidal trap
Zhiqiang Li, Xiaoxiao Hu, Zhao-Yun Zeng, Yajiang Chen, Ai-Xi Chen, Xiaobing Luo
Summary: This work demonstrates how the current phase transition of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates in a trap can be controlled by applying an oscillatory driving field. The self-trapping effect in momentum space allows for a suppression of oscillations and a nearly constant directed current. Mean-field chaos serves as an indicator of the quantum phase transition. These findings are supported by an effective three-mode model.

Modulation of electronic and optical properties of BlueP/MoSSe heterostructures via biaxial strain and vertical electric field
Jinqin Ye, Yi Li, Jun Ding, Heng Yu, Xianqi Dai
Summary: Constructing van der Waals heterostructures is an efficient approach to enhance the properties and broaden the applications of two-dimensional materials. This study explores the structure, stability, electronic, and optical properties of BlueP/MoSSe heterostructures using density functional theory calculations. It is found that the bandgap and band edge of these heterostructures can be effectively modulated by strain and electric field.

Melting line and thermal equation of state of fcc-cobalt: A combined experimental and computational approach
Simone Anzellini, Silvia Boccato, Samuel R. Baty, Leonid Burakovsky, Daniele Antonangeli, Daniel Errandonea, Raffaella Torchio
Summary: The melting line of cobalt was investigated through experimental and theoretical methods, revealing a phase transition from hexagonal close-packed structure to face-centered cubic structure at high temperatures. The melting temperatures obtained from both methods showed good agreement and can be described by a Simon-Glatzel equation. Additionally, a thermal equation of state for the face-centered cubic phase of cobalt was determined.

Chaotic dynamics of fractional viscoelastic PET membranes subjected to combined harmonic and variable axial loads
Jiajuan Qing, Shisheng Zhou, Jimei Wu, Mingyue Shao
Summary: This paper investigates the nonlinear chaotic vibrations of fractional viscoelastic PET membranes subjected to combined harmonic and variable axial loads. The viscoelasticity of PET membrane is characterized by the fractional Kelvin-Voigt model. The reliability of the numerical strategy is proved by comparing the results with available fractional systems and examples. The influence of system parameters on chaotic behaviors is described using bifurcation diagrams and detailed responses. This research provides a fundamental framework for controlling viscoelastic substrates in flexible manufacturing.
