Summary: The precipitation behavior of two L1(2)-strengthened alloys with Mg and Y additions was studied. It was found that Si-added alloy forms beta-Mg2Si precipitates at around 200 degrees C, which act as nucleation sites for the L1(2)-nanoprecipitates and cause partial depletion of Si solute atoms, resulting in a microhardness peak at 475 degrees C. The Si-free alloy has superior creep properties due to a larger lattice parameter mismatch of the L1(2)-nanoprecipitates with the Al matrix provided by higher Sc/Er/Y concentrations. Both alloys exhibit slower L1(2) nanoprecipitation-kinetics and extremely high coarsening resistance.

Summary: In this study, two leachable anticorrosive pigments, cerium 4-hydroxycinnamate (Ce(4OHCin)3) and strontium zinc phosphosilicate (SZP 391), were incorporated separately into model organic coatings to protect the structural integrity of AA2198-T851 aluminum alloy under neutral salt spray and immersion test conditions. The protective films formed through the dissolution and release of inhibitor clusters from the coatings, which provided channels for the transport of inhibitive species. The protective films revealed a monolayer structure, and their inhibitive properties were confirmed by increased impedance modulus of the substrate.

Summary: The electrochemical corrosion and erosion wear behaviors of detonation sprayed ODS FeAl powder coatings on T91 substrate were investigated. The corrosion resistance of the ODS FeAl coatings was better than T91 substrate in 3.5wt% Na2SO4, but worse than detonation sprayed Cr3C2-25NiCr coatings. However, the ODS FeAl coatings exhibited significantly improved wear resistance compared to Cr3C2-25NiCr coatings at room temperature and a higher temperature of 400°C.

Summary: This study focuses on evaluating the coating performance of 10 different PVD coatings for automotive engine grade Al-12Si die-cast alloy, with a novel thin multilayered TiAlN coating showing the best wear resistance. A common wear pattern was identified for thin hard coatings on form taps for high silicon content aluminum alloy, with coating fractures along the edges of the lobe in a form tap revealed during detailed investigation of wear mechanisms.

Summary: Grain refinement is essential for powder bed fusion additive manufacturing, and this study investigated the effects of different grain refiners on the grain size of Al-2 wt%Cu alloys. The results showed that Ti and Zr were the most effective grain refiners, while V and W had detrimental effects on grain refinement. Additionally, the addition of B also significantly contributed to grain refinement. The relationship between lattice parameters and grain size, as well as epitaxial strain/lattice match, was not clearly established.

Summary: Protective Zr-Si-B-N coatings were deposited using magnetron sputtering with a composite target and varied nitrogen partial pressure. The coatings exhibited a dense and defect-free structure, high transmittance in the visible and infrared spectral ranges, and improved wear resistance and friction properties due to nitrogen doping. However, nitrogen doping also reduced high-temperature oxidation resistance and thermal stability of the coatings. The high oxidation resistance of the Zr-Si-B coating was attributed to the formation of a silica-based surface protective layer with dispersed zirconia crystallites.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of incorporating different amounts of V into an Al-0.06Sc-0.06Zr-0.18Si at% alloy on the behavior of nanoprecipitates and the creep resistance of the alloy. The findings show that the amount of V added affects the structure, kinetics, coarsening resistance, and creep resistance of the alloys.

The Al11Ce3 platelets and L12 Al3(Sc,Zr,Er) nanoprecipitates were found to synergistically interact in strengthening the alloys, resulting in improved hardness and creep resistance.

Summary: In this study, a facile and environmentally friendly surface roughening method was used to create (super)hydrophobic aluminium surfaces. The durability, corrosion resistance, and self-cleaning/anti-icing abilities of the grafted surfaces were evaluated. The results showed that the grafted aluminium surfaces exhibited highly hydrophobic or superhydrophobic behavior, with the perfluorooctyl silane showing greater durability and stability compared to the octyl silane. The aluminium surface etched for 2 minutes and grafted with perfluorooctyl silane demonstrated excellent self-cleaning and anti-icing performance.
