In the realm of advanced materials engineering, the development of hybrid nanocomposites has garnered significant attention due to their superior mechanical properties and potential applications. The primary aim of this research is to develop a surface hybrid nanocomposite using Al1050 aluminium alloy (5 mm thickness) as the base material through friction stir processing. B2O3 nano-powder, averaging 100 nm in size, and Cu micro-powder, averaging 5 μm in size, were incorporated into the aluminium surface in various volume ratios using the Friction Stir Processing (FSP). The processing parameters included a tool rotational speed of 1250 rpm, a feed rate of 50 mm min−1, and a tilt angle of 3°. The number of passes was set at two levels: 1 and 3 passes. The influence of the volume ratio of constituents and the number of passes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the resulting composite was thoroughly explored. The samples underwent tensile tests, microhardness tests, and metallographic examinations using both Optical Microscopy (OM) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM). The composite with 25%-B2O3-75%-Cu composition exhibited the highest stress and hardness values, measuring 139 MPa and 58.14 HV, respectively. The enhanced strength of this sample is attributed to the presence of additives and the resultant grain size.

Ferrous antifriction materials (FAMs) play a crucial role in powder metallurgy. Previous studies have primarily focused on exploring the antifriction properties of Fe-C-Cu materials with low copper content (0–5 wt%), while there have been fewer studies on high copper content FAMs. In this study, to investigate the effect of Cu content on the microstructure and properties of sintered FAMs, Fe-0.8C-xCu (x = 5–25 wt%) materials were prepared by powder metallurgy method. The density, microstructure, mechanical performance, friction and wear properties of the samples were analyzed. The results demonstrated a significant change in the relative density, hardness, friction and wear properties of sintered Fe-0.8C-xCu samples with increasing Cu content. Particularly, the Fe-0.8C-15Cu samples exhibited outstanding properties, with a relative density of 77.8%, a hardness of 43 HRB, crushing strength of 380 MPa, an average friction coefficient of 0.21, and a wear rate of 1.36 × 10−8 mm3 N·mm−1. The primary wear mechanisms of the Fe-0.8C-xCu specimens include abrasive wear, adhesion wear, chafing fatigue, pitting, and oxidation. This study aims to provide an experimental and theoretical basis for the development of ferrous antifriction materials suitable for heavy-load conditions.

A highly efficient and stable photocatalyst, Ag3PO4, was prepared using a simple co-precipitation method at room temperature. The precursors used in this process were AgNO3 and K2HPO4. The resulting Ag3PO4 photocatalyst forms irregularly-shaped spheres with diameters ranging from 300 to 1 μm. The shape of the Ag3PO4 photocatalyst slightly changes when different surfactants (PVA, PVP, PEG) are used. The powdered Ag3PO4 photocatalyst exhibits excellent visible light-driven photocatalytic performance. It is capable of decomposing rhodamine B (RhB) as a model pollutant in just 5 min under visible light irradiation. This performance is quite remarkable. Interestingly, Ag3PO4 floating composite sheets have been achieved using polystyrene (PS) and fumed silica Aerosil 200. After three cycles, the decolorization of RhB dyes remains at 87% with the 30% Ag3PO4@PS/Aerosil 200 sheet. This indicates that the Ag3PO4@PS/Aerosil 200 photocatalyst is highly reusable and stable.

Light alloys play a crucial role in realizing the national strategy for energy conservation and emission reduction, as well as promoting the upgrading of manufacturing industries. Mg/Al composite laminates combine the corrosion resistance and ductility of aluminium alloy with the lightweight characteristics of magnesium alloy. The addition of Ce (rare earth elements) can improve the mechanical properties of magnesium via grain refinement and improve the ductility of the hybrid composites. In the present work, an investigation on addition of Ce into the Mg/Al matrix through Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) has been presented. The Mg/Ce/Al hybrid composite consists of Mg-4%Zn alloy and Al 1100 alloy with 0.2% Ce particles added between the dissimilar layers. The changes occurred in the evaluation of microstructure, corrosion and mechanical properties of the Mg/Ce/Al hybrid composite as a result of deformation process and also the addition of Ce have been explicated. The ARB parameters: temperature, rolling speed, percentage reduction, and aging time, have been studied. An increase of about 2.36 times in strength and hardness of the hybrid composite, has been reported. Further, the structure–property relations in the Mg/Ce/Al hybrid composites were aslo predict and compare using machine learning models: Decision Tree and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) models.

Biochar (BC) derived from reed stems was prepared by high-temperature pyrolysis, and two types of ZnO/biochar (ZBC) and TiO2/biochar (TBC) composite materials were synthesized via a simple hydrolysis method. These composites, compared to pure ZnO and TiO2, exhibit not only improved but significantly enhanced crystalline structures and larger specific surface areas. This enhancement in the physical and chemical properties of ZBC and TBC composites is a crucial aspect of our research, as it leads to a distinct red-shifted absorption edge and excellent visible-light absorption characteristics. The photocatalytic degradation efficiency of ZBC and TBC composite materials, a key finding of our study, was evaluated using doxycycline antibiotic as a simulated pollutant under visible-light irradiation. The results demonstrate a 6.0-fold and 7.3-fold increase in photocatalytic degradation efficiency of ZBC and TBC composites compared to pure ZnO and TiO2, respectively, further underscoring the significance of these enhanced properties. Furthermore, active species trapping experiments reveal that ·OH radicals are the dominant reactive species in the photocatalytic degradation process of doxycycline. A Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetic model accurately represents this degradation process. Kinetic data indicate that the degradation rate constants (k) of ZBC and TBC catalysts are 4.314 × 10−2 min−1 and 3.416 × 10−2 min−1, respectively. The photocatalysts exhibit no significant decrease in degradation efficiency for ZBC and TBC even after the fourth cycle, indicating their relatively high reusability. These results suggest that ZBC and TBC materials can be used as stable, efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable photocatalytic composite materials for antibiotic-contaminated wastewater treatment.

Two new ternary germanides Tb2Pt1.2Ge2.8, Dy2Pt1.15Ge2.85 and one already known germanium Ho2Pt1.1Ge2.9.were synthesized using an arc melting technique. The obtained samples were investigated by powder x-ray diffraction, which indicated that all of them crystallized in a hexagonal structure with P6/mmm (no. 191) space group. This structure is a disordered variant of the AlB2 aristotype that favors the formation of a spin-glass-like state. The physical properties were examined by measuring magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity and electrical resistance. Experiments indicated that all of the compounds can be classified as cluster-spin-glasses with the freezing temperature of Tf = 12.0 K, Tf = 6.0 K and Tf = 2.9 K for Tb2Pt1.2Ge2.8, Dy2Pt1.15Ge2.85 and Ho2Pt1.1Ge2.9 respectively.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of HSS drill tool coatings, namely single-layer TiN, single-layer AlCrN, and double-layer AlTiN + TiSiXN (Durana), on the surface roughness and cylindricity of AA6061 (90 wt%)/C (5 wt%)/ZrO2 (5 wt%) hybrid composite material processed by the stir casting method. The fabricated sample was examined for the uniform particle distribution of reinforcements using Scanning Electron Microscope. The drilling operation was carried out on the fabricated in a CNC machining center by setting the spindle speeds of 800, 1200, and 1600 rpm, depths of cut of 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mm, and feeds of 50, 100, and 150 mm/rev. An orthogonal array (L27) designed by Taguchi’s method was used as the design of the experiment for the optimization of the best cutting parameters and coating. Surface roughness and cylindricity errors were determined for the 27 experimental runs. Field emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) examination and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) were used to analyze the surface integrity and elemental composition, respectively. The results revealed that Durana had a significant effect on the surface substrate with minimum surface roughness (Ra) of 1.666 μm and obtained the minimum cylindricity error for the parameters of depth of cut 0.5 mm, spindle speed of 1200 and feed of 100 mm rev−1.

The purpose of this work is to use electrochemical and gravimetric techniques to investigate the inhibition of DBSS on the corrosion of heat-treated dual-phase AISI 1040 steel in a 0.5 M sulphuric acid solution at 35 °C. The corrosion studies are performed by potentiodynamic polarization study (PDP), electrochemical impedance study (EIS), and gravimetric method. To confirm the inhibition surface characterization like x-ray diffraction technique (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and EDS analysis are performed. Depending on the phase change of metals due to heat treatment, the corrosion inhibition of the heat-treated metal increased when it was exposed to 0.5 M H2SO4 at 35 °C in the presence of dodecyl benzene sulphonic acid sodium salt (DBSS) inhibitor. The highest inhibition efficiency of 63%, 82%, 87%, 43%, and 63% was obtained for AISI 1040 steel at heat treatment conditions of Normalized, Quenched at 700 °C, Quenched at 750 °C, Quenched at 790 °C and Quenched at 900 °C respectively. In the gravimetric and electrochemical study, the IE increases with the increase with the concentration of DBSS unto 75% from gravimetric analysis and 87% from PDP analysis for Quenched at 750 °C and 790 °C respectively. The metal protection is achieved by heat treatment process as well as by using DBSS as inhibitor. Corrosion inhibition on the metal’s surface was confirmed by SEM and XRD. In addition, the adsorption of DBSS on the anodic and cathodic sites of the metal surface was well explained.
本研究的目的是利用电化学和重量测量技术研究 DBSS 在 35 °C 的 0.5 M 硫酸溶液中对热处理双相 AISI 1040 钢腐蚀的抑制作用。腐蚀研究是通过电位极化研究(PDP)、电化学阻抗研究(EIS)和重量法进行的。为了确认抑制效果,还进行了 X 射线衍射技术(XRD)分析、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和 EDS 分析等表面表征。根据热处理导致的金属相变,在十二烷基苯磺酸钠盐(DBSS)抑制剂存在的情况下,将热处理金属暴露在 35 °C 的 0.5 M H2SO4 中,其缓蚀效果会增加。在正火、700 ℃淬火、750 ℃淬火、790 ℃淬火和 900 ℃淬火的热处理条件下,AISI 1040 钢的最高抑制效率分别为 63%、82%、87%、43% 和 63%。在重量分析和电化学研究中,750 ℃淬火和 790 ℃淬火的 IE 随 DBSS 浓度的增加而增加,重量分析结果分别为 75% 和 87%。通过热处理工艺和使用 DBSS 作为抑制剂,都能实现对金属的保护。扫描电镜和 XRD 证实了金属表面的缓蚀效果。此外,DBSS 在金属表面阳极和阴极位点的吸附情况也得到了很好的解释。

The corrosion studies are performed by potentiodynamic polarization study (PDP), electrochemical impedance study (EIS), and gravimetric method. To confirm the inhibition surface characterization like x-ray diffraction technique (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and EDS analysis are performed. Depending on the phase change of metals due to heat treatment, the corrosion inhibition of the heat-treated metal increased when it was exposed to 0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> at 35 °C in the presence of dodecyl benzene sulphonic acid sodium salt (DBSS) inhibitor. The highest inhibition efficiency of 63%, 82%, 87%, 43%, and 63% was obtained for AISI 1040 steel at heat treatment conditions of Normalized, Quenched at 700 °C, Quenched at 750 °C, Quenched at 790 °C and Quenched at 900 °C respectively. In the gravimetric and electrochemical study, the IE increases with the increase with the concentration of DBSS unto 75% from gravimetric analysis and 87% from PDP analysis for Quenched at 750 °C and 790 °C respectively. The metal protection is achieved by heat treatment process as well as by using DBSS as inhibitor. Corrosion inhibition on the metal’s surface was confirmed by SEM and XRD. In addition, the adsorption of DBSS on the anodic and cathodic sites of the metal surface was well explained.","PeriodicalId":18530,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research Express","volume":"104 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Carbon nanofibers with Co, Ni nanoparticle were synthesized by a two-step process involving electrospinning and heat treatment. Their phase composition, microstructure, elemental composition and electromagnetic characteristics were characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and vector network analyzer (VNA). The microwave absorption performance of these carbon nanofibers was also studied. The results indicate that these composite nanofibers are intact and consist of amorphous carbon and face-centered cubic structured magnetic metals. The resultant metal nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed along carbon-based nanofibers which enhance the synergistic and interfacial effects between magnetic loss and dielectric loss. When the thicknesses of the absorbers are 1.5 mm, the absorption bandwidths (RL ≤ −10 dB) are approximately 4 GHz and 2.5 GHz for the Co/C, Ni/C composite nanofibers, respectively, which are obviously superior to pure carbon nanofibers. Co/C composite nanofibers exhibit a wider absorption band range and stronger microwave absorption intensity compared to Ni/C composite nanofibers, attributed to their excellent electromagnetic impedance matching and attenuation characteristics. This indicates that the Co/C composite nanofibers are promising candidates for novel microwave absorbing materials.

The influence factors of small punch test (SPT) were investigated to evaluate the mechanical properties of gradient nanostructured (GNS) materials. The gradient nanostructure was prepared on the top layer of S30408 austenitic stainless steel by ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT). The mechanical properties of the GNS material were obtained using SPT and correlated with those obtained by standard tensile tests. The results indicate that, when the specimen thickness is 0.5 mm, the sphere diameter is 2.4 mm, the punch velocity is 0.5 mm min−1, and the gradient nano-grained layer is placed face-on in the mold, the GNS material exhibits better plastic deformability. The SPT specimen achieves better bearing capacity, and the mechanical properties of the GNS material obtained by SPT are more accurate. The yield strength and tensile strength of the GNS material were also evaluated by analytical and empirical methods in SPT. The error is approximately 10% compared with the standard tensile test results, which is within the allowable range.
