Summary: The diffusion phenomenon in the Ti-Ni binary system was studied at 1173 K. Analysis of microstructure and texture revealed the presence of three stable intermetallic compounds and two metastable intermetallic compounds at the interface. The formation of Ti2Ni was found to be the first compound to form at the Ti-Ni diffusion interface. The integrated diffusion coefficients for Ti2Ni, TiNi, and TiNi3 phases were calculated to be 3.53 x 10(-12), 18.1 x 10(-15), and 6.2 x 10(-15) m(2)/s, respectively, using the Wagner method at a temperature of 1173 K.

Summary: Stainless steel coatings on aluminium alloy substrates have been achieved through various methods, including friction surfacing, thermal spraying, cold spraying, laser coating, and diffusion bonding. In this study, 304-grade stainless steel was successfully reverse-cladded onto an LM25 aluminium alloy using a surface-prepared sheet insert. The interface between the cladding and substrate was characterized using optical and electronic microscopic techniques, revealing the presence of an intermetallic zone (IMZ) with four intermetallic layers (IMLs) of varying thickness. Electron probe microanalysis identified the associated phases in each IML.

Summary: The effect of steam pretreatment on the microstructure of tiger nut and the properties of tiger nut oil (TNO) was examined. It was found that steam pretreatment caused rupture of the cell structure and aggregation of starch granules, leading to an increase in oil yield. Steam pretreatment also increased the induction time, total phenolic and vitamin E content, and decreased the acid value and carotenoid levels in TNO. Gas chromatography analysis showed that steam pretreatment had no significant effect on the fatty acid composition of TNO. A total of 60 volatile compounds were detected in TNO samples, with aldehydes being the most abundant compounds. Steam pretreatment had a noticeable impact on the profiles of volatile compounds in TNO. In conclusion, steam pretreatment may be a viable approach to improve the oil yield and quality of TNO.

Summary: The study compared the microstructures and mechanical properties of extruded Mg-xCa/Mn/Ce alloys and pure Mg, finding that addition of Ca, Mn, and Ce could achieve fine grain sizes. The addition of Ca, Mn, or Ce also affected the textures of the alloys. Mg-0.5Ca/Mg-2Mn and Mg-1Ce showed better mechanical properties compared to pure Mg. These results suggest that conventional extrusion can produce fine-grained Mg-xCa/Mn/Ce alloys with improved mechanical properties.

Summary: Studying the deformation behaviors of microstructures is crucial for understanding the precipitation-strengthening mechanism in alloys. This study used the phase-field crystal method to investigate the interactions between precipitates, grain boundaries, and dislocations during deformation processes. The results revealed that the pinning effect of precipitates becomes stronger with increasing lattice misfit at slow deformation rates. Different deformation behaviors were observed depending on the lattice misfit and strain rate. The findings provide insights into how microstructures in precipitation-strengthening alloys deform collaboratively or independently.

Furthermore, this model is used to predict the thermal conductivity of two-phase WC-Co-Ni under different phase-fractions, temperatures, and WC grain sizes, which can aid in designing cemented carbides with desired thermal conductivities.

Summary: Cast defects are common and hard to eliminate without deformation in cast alloys, degrading their mechanical properties. The addition of Sn was found to have a deleterious effect on Al-Si alloy's mechanical properties, forming amorphous Sn oxides near alumina film or enclosures. The high Sn content trapped in enclosures resulted in more shrinkage pores during solidification, leading to cracks along these pores and amorphous Sn oxides, deteriorating the mechanical properties. This study suggests not adding Sn to various cast Al alloys.

Summary: Extensive research has revealed that oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline conditions involves dynamic surface restructuring. The development and design of sulfide/oxide pre-catalysts can reasonably adjust the composition and structure after surface reconstruction, which is crucial for OER. This study utilized a simple two-step hydrothermal method to achieve in situ S leaching and doping, inducing the composition change and structure reconstruction of CoFe oxides. The transformed FeOOH and CoOOH exhibited excellent OER activity and could be easily mass-produced using low-cost iron based materials and simple methods.

Summary: Zero-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides (OMHs) are gaining attention in the fabrication of light-emitting diodes due to their broad emission band and high photoluminescence quantum yield. This work synthesized a zero-dimensional organic tetraphenylphosphonium bismuth chloride (TBC) that showed efficient blue light emission, with the emission mechanism attributed to the transition of Bi3+ ions. White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) were fabricated using TBC, along with green-emitting and red-emitting single crystals, achieving single-component white emissions. These findings demonstrate the different emission mechanism of ns2 ions-based OMHs and highlight the potential of bismuth-based OMHs in WLEDs applications.

Summary: The revolutionary design concept of high-entropy alloys has brought new opportunities and challenges to the development of advanced metal materials. In this work, AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy flux cored wires were prepared by combining the design idea of a high-entropy alloy with the characteristics of flux cored wire. AlCr-CuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys were prepared using gas metal arc welding technology. The wear properties of the alloys were analyzed, and the phase composition, microstructure, strengthening mechanism, and wear mechanism were discussed. The results show that the alloys exhibit a dendritic microstructure with BCC/B2 + FCC phases. Increasing Ti content leads to the precipitation of Laves phase. The alloys show improved microhardness and wear resistance due to the precipitation of coherent B2 and Laves phases. However, excessive Ti addition results in the increase of Laves phase and reduced wear resistance of the alloys.

The Fe:Co ratio not only modulates the composition of the particles but also influences their structure and magnetic properties. The FeCo alloys showed a transformation from an Fe-based structure to a Co-based structure with increasing Co content. The Fe:Co ratio of 1:1 and 3:1 resulted in particles with the highest and lowest saturation magnetization, respectively.

Summary: We conducted a study on the formation of ultra-fine Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides in Ta+B micro-alloyed 13CrWTi-ODS alloys using electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. The Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides were found to be mainly Y2(Ti,Ta)2O7, with an average size of 7 nm and a number density of 6.8 x 1023 m-3. Excess boron was found to enhance the adhesion of some low-sigma grain boundaries but weaken the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface, while excess tantalum enhanced the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface but caused serious degradation of grain boundaries.

Summary: Recently, there has been an increasing interest in developing ultra-fine nanostructured electrodes with extensive reaction areas to enhance the performance and low-temperature operation of solid oxide fuel cells. The use of a refined approach involving co-sputtering metal alloys and oxide targets has demonstrated the feasibility of nano-columnar structures in perovskite-based electrodes, expanding the temperature range of thin film electrodes. This study systematically examines the effects of chamber pressure control in the co-sputtering process and identifies the intricate relationship between sputtering pressure and film structure. By fine-tuning the columnar growth in the electrode, significant improvements in performance and thermo-mechanical properties were achieved, resulting in high-performance all-sputtered solid oxide fuel cells.
