Summary: A non-equilibrium time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagram and the corresponding time-temperature-property (TTP) relation were determined for Fe73Ga27 alloy, which exhibits significantly enhanced magnetostriction with the formation of coherent L6(0) nanoprecipitates. The diagram provides a processing base for enhancing the magnetostriction of Fe-Ga alloys and can offer important guidance for tailoring the microstructure of other nanoprecipitates-bearing alloys with similar diffusion-controlled phase transformation.

Summary: In this study, nanoparticles of Co1-xRexFe2O4 and CoFe2-xRexO4 (0 <= x <= 0.05) were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The substitution of Re led to slightly increased lattice parameters and shift in Raman spectra peak positions. The surface Re exchange changed the coordination environment of metals and induced Fe-site structure distortion. The magnetic measurements showed that all samples exhibited ferromagnetic behavior across the entire temperature range.

Summary: Isomorphic substitution of metal ions can alter the morphology and lattice parameters of AlPO4-5 crystals, as well as tune their water adsorption behavior. Metal substitution affects the hydrophobicity and adsorption capacity of the materials, with an increase in metal content leading to a shift in the onset of the adsorption inflection point. Among the adsorbents tested, an Fe-based AlPO4-5 showed the highest absorption capacity.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of Mn content on the formation of Fe-bearing phases, macro-segregation behavior, and mechanical properties of TRC Al-0.5Mg-0.7Si-0.1Fe-xMn alloys. Results showed that Mn addition can alleviate macro-segregation in Al alloys, but excessive Mn can lead to the formation of coarse intermetallic compounds aggravating macro-segregation. The 0.1Mn alloy exhibited the best combination of yield strength and elongation under artificial aging conditions, mainly due to the formation of fine alpha-Al(FeMn)Si particles contributing to dispersion strengthening.

Summary: We report on the influence of Al and Zn co-substitution on the structural, magnetic, and magnetostrictive properties of CZFAO materials. The incorporation of smaller Al3+ ions in spinel ferrite leads to a reduction in crystallite size and lattice parameter. Al-Zn substitution induces grain growth, resulting in a dense, interconnected grain morphology. The magnetic properties of CZFAO, such as saturation magnetization and coercivity, decrease with increasing x due to the non-magnetic character of the substituents.

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
