Summary: The market for orthopedic implant alloys has grown significantly, leading to extensive research on biodegradable magnesium-based alloys for green medicine. This study immersed a Mg-9Li alloy in cell culture medium to simulate degradation and monitor its effects on cells. The presence of hydroxyl groups led to cell death, while a coating of MgCO3 (H2O)(3), HA, and α-TCP appeared on the sample surfaces, providing anti-corrosion effects and a conducive surface environment for osteoblast adhesion. This bio-simulation immersion analysis has important implications for the clinical use of Mg alloys in securing regenerated periodontal tissue.

Summary: The FeCrMoWCBY metallic glass showed excellent corrosion resistance in oxygen-saturated lead-bismuth eutectic at 500 degrees C. Adding the right amount of W element can enhance corrosion resistance, but excessive W can reduce it. The surface structure of the Fe-based metallic glass consists of an inner amorphous transition layer and an outer FeCr2O4 oxide nanocrystal layer, with the continuous amorphous layer acting as a diffusion barrier to prevent further corrosion.

Summary: Magnesium-based materials have attracted extensive attention as biomedical implant materials due to their good mechanical properties and ability to degrade naturally in vivo. However, their high corrosion rate has limited their medical applications. In this study, the corrosion behavior of AZ91D magnesium alloy-graphene nanoplatelets (AZ91D-GNPs) composites in simulated body fluid solution was investigated. The results showed that the addition of 0.6 wt% GNPs in AZ91D composite exhibited the highest corrosion resistance with a corrosion rate of 2.7549 mm/a. Additionally, solution treatment effectively improved the corrosion resistance by reducing the corrosion rate by 81%.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of parameters on interlayer bond strength in 3DCP from different phases, including mixing, printing, and post-processing phases. The results showed that increasing superplasticizer dosage in the mixing phase, increasing pumping speed in the printing phase, and proper curing in the post-processing phase can improve interlayer bond strength. While surface moisture content (SMC) has a critical impact, material thixotropic index (Ithix) probably has a stronger influence on interlayer bond strength.

Summary: Four-point bending fatigue tests were conducted on semi-solid Al-7Si-Mg castings with different magnesium contents and heat treatment conditions. The results showed that fatigue crack initiation mainly occurred at the periphery of positive macrosegregation regions at the casting surface, possibly due to exudation. The macrosegregation regions had a predominantly eutectic microstructure and were often surrounded by an oxide layer, which promoted weak bonding and acted as crack initiation sites. Additionally, primary alpha-Al globule agglomerates on the casting surface, also surrounded by an oxide layer, promoted fatigue crack initiation. The fatigue resistance of the castings increased with the increase in magnesium content from 0.3 to 0.45 wt.%, but slightly decreased when the magnesium content reached 0.6 wt.%. The oxide layer formed during anodising had no significant effect on the fatigue resistance, as the macrosegregation regions played a dominant role in fatigue crack initiation.

Summary: The effect of rotary degassing on defect formation, mechanical properties, and energy consumption in the casting furnace of aluminium alloy EN AC 46000 was investigated. Negligible degradation in mechanical properties of the final cast component was observed after removing the rotary degassing step. Eliminating rotary degassing led to a significant reduction in temperature drop in the melt, resulting in up to 75% energy savings in the casting furnace. The reduced energy consumption translated to a decrease of up to 124,000 kWh and CO2 emission reduction of about 1500 kg in a 1500 kg annual production in an electrical casting furnace.

Summary: There is a trend for automotive producers to require increased usage of secondary aluminum alloy ingots in order to reduce car production's CO2 footprint. This study investigates the merits of this trend and finds that simultaneously reducing elongation requirements for aluminum alloy die castings while increasing the use of secondary ingots is counterproductive, as it fails to take advantage of weight reduction possibilities and actually increases the car's CO2 footprint over its useful life. The study recommends that foundries improve their melt handling capabilities to minimize damage to the melt in the melting and casting process chain, and that automobile producers reduce weight by increasing elongation requirements to achieve a reduced CO2 footprint in car designs, material usage, and life-cycle.

Summary: This study systematically investigated the influence of hydrogen doping on the phase stability, mechanical and electronic properties of B2-ZrCu compound using first-principles calculations. The results showed that as the hydrogen concentration increases, the metallicity of the system decreases, while the covalency increases. The combination of covalency, crystalline symmetry and packing density of interstitial hydrogens plays a crucial role in the mechanical behavior, while the overall bonding character determines the stability.

Summary: Aluminium metal matrix composites were synthesized using a novel stirring device, and the effects of different matrix alloys, SiC particle fractions and sizes on the wear performance of the materials were investigated. Dry sliding pin-on-plate tests were conducted against a high-speed train brake pad to evaluate the wear performance, and electron microscopy was employed to study the wear surfaces. The formation of an iron-based tribolayer during wear provided protection to the metal matrix composite, and the composites with small SiC particles exhibited lower wear rate and friction coefficient compared to other composites.
