During continuous casting, coated slag is applied to molten steel to enhance heat transfer and lubrication. In this study, a numerical calculation model was built to reveal the flowing characteristic of slag according to the fundamental principles of heat transfer and viscous fluid mechanics. The flow and heat transfer behaviour of protective slag on the surface of molten steel and the flow velocity of liquid slag in slag channel gaps were calculated and analyzed. The streaming and thermal conduction situation of slag on the surface of molten steel, as well as the flow velocity of liquid flux in the slag passage gap, were calculated and analyzed. The results showed that as the thickness of the liquidus slag film increased from 10 to 12 mm, the thermal flux density at the top of the flux film layer decreased from 0.1059 to 0.0882 MW/m2. The heat flux density increased rapidly within 0.1 m of the narrow side of the mould, reaching a peak value of 2.27 MW/m2. As the viscosity temperature factor of the flux increased from 0.45 to 2.05, the maximum floating speed of the liquid film from the water inlet to the narrow side in the centre district of the mould decreased from 0.0316 to 0.028 m/s, representing a reduction of approximately 11.4%. This study can provide a reference for the design and improvement of protective slag.

CoCrFeNi HEAs have better ductility, while the strength and corrosion resistance need to be further improved, while metal materials for deep-sea operations put forward the requirement of excellent mechanical properties and very high corrosion resistance; however, CoCrFeNi HEAs have been less studied for the trade-off between mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Therefore, the present study utilized the laser melting deposition (LMD) technique to fabricate a series of (CoCrFeNi)Tix (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 at.%) HEAs and systematically investigated the influence of Ti content on the alloy’s microstructure, phase composition, mechanical properties, and electrochemical performance. The research findings revealed that as the Ti content increased, the alloy gradually transformed from a single face-centered cubic (FCC) phase to an FCC and body-centered cubic (BCC) dual-phase structure. The addition of Ti induced a transition in the alloy’s microstructure from an equiaxed to a dendritic morphology, accompanied by grain refinement. Energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis confirmed the uniform distribution of Ti within the alloy. The hardness of the alloy increased significantly with the increase in Ti content, reaching 804.5 HV when the Ti content was 1.0 at.%, which was 4.13 times higher than the Ti-free alloy. The tensile and compression test results showed that the (CoCrFeNi)Tix alloy with a Ti content of 0.4 at.% exhibited the best overall mechanical performance. The electrochemical test results indicated that the addition of Ti effectively enhanced the corrosion resistance of the alloy, with the 0.4 at.% Ti-containing alloy exhibiting the optimal corrosion resistance. This study provides a strong theoretical and experimental foundation for the design of high-performance CoCrFeNi-based HEAs.

In this work, a series of fluorinated microemulsions were synthesized using thermally decomposable N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethylamine N-oxide (LDAO) as surfactant. Then, polybutylene terephthalate nonwoven fabrics (PBT) were coated with microemulsion and heat-treated. Superhydrophobic and oil-repellent modified PBT with WCA (water contact angle) of about 152°, a sliding angle of about 2.1°, and oil repellency grade of 8 were prepared. The effect of surfactants on the surface wettability of hydrophobic materials was analyzed by TG-DTA, XPS, and WCA tests. The results show that surfactants decrease the WCA of hydrophobic materials, but LDAO can eliminate this effect by heat treatment. The anti-corrosion and permeability of LDAO coatings were compared with those of conventional fluorinated coatings through degradation and anti-permeability tests. It was shown that the LDAO fluorinated superhydrophobic coating is more resistant to corrosion by chemical solutions and significantly improves the impermeability of porous materials. Anti-fouling and self-cleaning tests showed excellent anti-fouling and self-cleaning properties on several common substrate surfaces modified with LDAO fluorinated microemulsions. It is expected that these new LDAO fluorinated microemulsions have promising applications in the preparation of corrosion-resistant surfaces and impermeable structures.

In order to reduce heat loss and diffusion of underground heating pipelines, this research incorporated phase change material (PCM) into the controlled low-strength material (CLSM) to prepare a pipeline backfill material with temperature control performance. In response to the problem that PCM leaks easily, a new type of paraffin–rice husk ash composite PCM (PR-PCM) was obtained by adsorbing melted paraffin into rice husk ash. Through mixing PR-PCM with dredged sediment (DS) and ordinary Portland cement (OPC), a controlled low-strength material (CLSM) with temperature control performance was prepared. The flowability, mechanical properties, microscopic characteristics, thermal characteristics, and durability of CLSM were analyzed through flowability, unconfined compressive strength (UCS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and phase change cycle tests. The results show that when water consumption is constant, as the PR-PCM content increases, the flowability of CLSM increases, and the strength decreases. The CLSM has an obvious paraffin diffraction peak in the XRD pattern, and its microstructure is dense with few pores. The melting point of CLSM is 50.65 °C and the latent heat is 4.10 J/g. Compared with CLSM without PR-PCM, the maximum temperature difference during the heating process can reach 3.40 °C, and the heat storage performance is improved by 4.1%. The strength of CLSM increases and the melting point decreases after phase change cycles. CLSM containing PR-PCM has the characteristics of phase change temperature control, which plays a positive role in reducing heat loss by heating pipelines and temperature change in backfill areas.

In order to study the coupling mechanism of the process parameters during the double-glow discharge process, and thus to enhance the theoretical study of double-glow plasma surface metallurgical technology, in this paper, a two-dimensional fluid model is established using COMSOL simulation software. The effects of key processing factors on the distribution of electrons and excited argon ions, potential and electron temperature in the coupling process of double-glow discharge were investigated. The results indicated that the electron density between the two electrode plates increases as the voltage difference increases. The optimal working pressure was kept between 0.14 Torr and 0.29 Torr. The optimal electrode spacing was between 15 mm and 30 mm and decreased with the increase in pressure. Compared with the actual plasma surface alloying process experiment, the simulation results were consistent with the experiments. The research can guide experiments by combining simulation and theory, and the predictability and accuracy of double-glow surface metallurgy technology have been improved.

Tunnel boring machines (TBMs) are exposed to the impact of the ground shattering force and the friction of sandstone during excavation work, and are prone to wear and breakage, and other failures. Traditional heat treatment processes cannot simultaneously achieve the required high-energy composite structure of hard external and tough internal properties for cutter rings, leading to inadequate wear resistance and impact toughness under working conditions. This study utilizes H13 steel as the base material, and based on a study of carburizing, nitriding, and ultrasonic impact processes for H13 steel analyzing the effects of different high-energy composite modification processes on the hardness distribution, microstructure, and residual stress of H13 steel, the mechanisms by which high-energy composite modification processes affect the wear resistance and impact resistance of H13 steel are revealed. The results indicate that the wear amount and impact toughness of the sample subjected to carburizing and ultrasonic surface rolling composite strengthening were 1.9 mg and 27.34 J/cm2, demonstrating the best wear and impact resistance. This combination of properties allows the H13 steel cutter ring to achieve the optimal overall performance in terms of wear resistance and impact resistance.

The objective of this research work is the study of the inhibitory effect of Warionia saharea essential oil (WSEO) on the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in molar HCl solution, employing both experimental and theoretical methods. This inhibitory effect (IE) has been evaluated by using a combination of weight loss measurements (LW) and various electrochemical methods, such as open circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) experiments. The LW results indicated that IE increased with inhibitor concentration, reaching 83.34% at 3.00 g/L. The PDP analysis suggested that WSEO functions as a mixed inhibitor, while in the EIS results the Rct values increased with inhibitor concentration to reach 165.8 Ω cm2 at 2.00 g/L, suggesting a defensive film formation by WSEO molecules over the metallic surface. The thermodynamic study demonstrated that the WSEO molecules adsorption on the MS surface followed a Langmuir isotherm, involving mixed physical and chemical (physicochemical) adsorption on the MS surface. Theoretical methods, including density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, were employed to elucidate the inhibition mechanisms of the three main components of WSEO. The quantum chemical analysis, using density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, showed a low ΔEgap value of 6.30 eV and a low adsorption energy (Eads) value on an Fe (110) substrate of −258 Kcal/mol for (E)-Nerolidol, indicating the significant contribution of this molecule to the overall corrosion inhibition effect of WSEO. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis verified the presence of a protective film formed by the inhibitor on the MS surface. This study highlights the potential of WSEO as a sustainable and green corrosion inhibitor in acidic environments.
这项研究工作的目的是采用实验和理论方法，研究 Warionia saharea 精油（WSEO）对盐酸摩尔溶液中低碳钢（MS）腐蚀的抑制作用。通过结合使用失重测量（LW）和各种电化学方法，如开路电位（OCP）、电位极化（PDP）和电化学阻抗光谱（EIS）实验，对这种抑制作用（IE）进行了评估。LW 结果表明，IE 随抑制剂浓度的增加而增加，在 3.00 g/L 时达到 83.34%。PDP 分析表明 WSEO 起着混合抑制剂的作用，而在 EIS 结果中，Rct 值随着抑制剂浓度的增加而增加，在 2.00 g/L 时达到 165.8 Ω cm2，这表明 WSEO 分子在金属表面形成了一层防御膜。热力学研究表明，WSEO 分子在 MS 表面的吸附遵循 Langmuir 等温线，涉及 MS 表面的物理和化学（物理化学）混合吸附。研究采用密度泛函理论（DFT）和分子动力学（MD）模拟等理论方法阐明了 WSEO 三种主要成分的抑制机理。利用密度泛函理论（DFT）和分子动力学（MD）模拟进行的量子化学分析表明，(E)-橙花叔醇在铁(110)基底上的ΔEgap值较低，为6.30 eV，吸附能（Eads）值较低，为-258 Kcal/mol，表明该分子对WSEO的整体缓蚀效果有重要贡献。扫描电子显微镜（SEM）分析验证了抑制剂在 MS 表面形成的保护膜的存在。这项研究凸显了 WSEO 作为酸性环境中可持续绿色缓蚀剂的潜力。

In this study, we explored the potential of illite sourced from Yeongdong-eup, South Korea, as a filler in polymer electrolytes for all-solid-state Li-ion batteries. The illite was expanded (EI) by acid treatment and UV curing was employed to synthesize the polymer electrolytes. The Li+ ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolytes was measured at various EI contents, revealing the highest conductivity of 1.08 × 10−2 S cm−1 at 4 wt% of the EI. The electrochemical performance of NMC cells assembled with the EI-incorporated polymer electrolyte showed a good discharge capacity of over 158.6 mAh g−1 with a coulombic efficiency of 99%. These findings demonstrate the significant potential of EI as a sustainable and efficient filler material for enhancing the performance of polymer-based all-solid-state Li batteries. This study highlighted the applicability of illite sourced from South Korea and its potential contribution to the development of polymer-based all-solid-state batteries.

Axial piston pumps with compact structures and high efficiency are widely used in construction machinery. The efficiency and lifetime strongly depend on the tribological performance of the pump’s valve plate pair. To enhance the tribological performance of the valve plate pair, surface textures, and H-DLC coatings were fabricated to modify the CuAl10Fe5Ni5 surfaces. The influences of elliptic textures of different sizes and textured H-DLC coatings on the surface friction and wear properties of the valve plate surface under oil lubrication were evaluated using a ring-on-disk tribometer. The results reveal that the friction and wear properties of the CuAl10Fe5Ni5 surfaces are significantly enhanced by elliptic textures, and the friction coefficient and wear rate of textured CuAl10Fe5Ni5 with E90 are maximally decreased by 95% and 87%, respectively. Compared with the surface textures and H-DLC coatings, the textured H-DLC coating has the greatest ability to reduce wear and adhesion. The wear rate of the textured H-DLC coating is further reduced by 98%. This improvement can be explained by the synergistic effect of the elliptic textures and H-DLC coatings, which are attributed to the reduced contact area, debris capture, and secondary lubrication of the elliptic textures, and increased surface hardness.

The need for alternative energy storage options beyond lithium-ion batteries is critical due to their high costs, resource scarcity, and environmental concerns. Zinc-ion batteries offer a promising solution, given zinc’s abundance, cost effectiveness, and safety, particularly its compatibility with non-flammable aqueous electrolytes. In this study, the potential of laser-ablation-based titanium oxide as a novel cathode material for zinc-ion batteries was investigated. The ultra-short laser pulses for in situ nanostructure generation (ULPING) technique was employed to generate nanostructured titanium oxide. This laser ablation process produced highly porous nanostructures, enhancing the electrochemical performance of the electrodes. Zinc and titanium oxide samples were evaluated using two-electrode and three-electrode setups, with cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD) techniques. Optimal cathode materials were identified in the Ti-5W (laser ablated twice) and Ti-10W (laser ablated ten times) samples, which demonstrated excellent charge capacity and energy density. The Ti-10W sample exhibited superior long-term performance due to its highly porous nanostructures, improving ion diffusion and electron transport. The potential of laser-ablated titanium oxide as a high-performance cathode material for zinc-ion batteries was highlighted, emphasizing the importance of further research to optimize laser parameters and enhance the stability and scalability of these electrodes.
