The study explores the ballistic impact performance of shear thickening fluid (STF) impregnated sisal fabric panels with varying nano silica loadings (10 wt%, 20 wt%, and 30 wt%). Rheological analysis indicated improved shear thickening behavior with increased nano-silica. FESEM, XRD, and FTIR analyses were conducted to assess changes in morphology, phase structure, and functional groups. The yarn pull-out test showed a higher pull-out force for STF-impregnated fabrics, with 30 wt% STF demonstrating the highest pull-out speed. Ballistic impact tests revealed significant improvements in energy absorption for STF-impregnated fabrics compared to neat fabrics, with energy absorption enhancements of 4.40% for 10 wt%, 45.09% for 20 wt%, and 50.17% for 30 wt%. The increased nano-silica loading resulted in greater energy absorption, attributed to enhanced inter-yarn friction and improved fabric integrity.

Working temperatures, thermal insulation performance, and life span of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are primarily influenced by their high-temperature stability, thermal expansion coefficients (TECs), thermal conductivity, and fracture toughness. To address the limitations of current zirconate- and tantalate-based oxides, dual-phase zirconate/tantalate high-entropy ceramics (HECs) are designed and synthesized to improve their thermal and mechanical properties. The combined effects of high entropy, high concentrations of oxygen vacancies, and relatively low phonon velocity result in glass-like thermal conductivity, with a minimum value of 1.55 W m K at 1200 °C. The high TECs (10.6–10.9 × 10 K at 1400 °C) and exceptional high-temperature stability demonstrate that these materials can withstand 1300 °C for more than 300 h, significantly surpassing the performance of traditional yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). Compared with YSZ (3.6 MPa m) and YTaO (2.5 MPa m), the increments in fracture toughness (4.4 MPa m) of dual-phase zirconate/tantalate HECs are as high as 22.2% and 76.0%, respectively. It is evident that the designed dual-phase zirconate/tantalate HECs can effectively promote thermal properties and fracture toughness, positioning them as the next-generation TBCs with high operating temperatures and outstanding thermal insulation performance.

To reveal the microstructure forming mechanism of laser/ultra-high frequency (UHF) induction deposition, this paper developed a microscopic phase-field (PF) model to numerically investigate dendrite growth during solidification. The macroscopic model of molten pool evolution is adopted to provide the solidification conditions for the microscopic PF model. The dendrite growth during laser deposition is simulated to evaluate the effect of UHF induction heat on the dendrite growth. Results show that because of the high temperature gradient and cooling rate, the PDAS of laser-UHF induction hybrid deposited layer is less than that of the laser deposited layer. The UHF induction heat also leads to a high flow velocity of the molten metal during laser-UHF induction hybrid deposition. The high flow velocity contributes to the decrease in PDAS by inhibiting the interdendritic enrichment of solute. During laser-UHF induction hybrid deposition, a higher solute gradient is present in the tip region of dendrite arm, leading to a faster dendrite growth rate. The UHF induction heat also increases the solute distribution coefficient during deposition, which further inhibits the element segregation. Under the action of UHF induction heat, a low interdendritic solute gradient and an evenly distributed solute can be obtained, thus helping increase interdendritic undercooling degrees and decreasing the PDAS. The simulated PDAS and solute distribution have good consistency with the experimental results. The spectral analysis of EDS line detection indicates that the laser-UHF induction hybrid deposited layer has a more refined microstructure and weaker element segregation than the laser deposited layer does.

Nowadays there has been a substantial escalation in the consumption of the global annual mortality rate due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the traditional stainless-steel materials used for interventional treatments are sometimes unsuitable for thinner vascular walls. Hence it is imperative to undertake a comprehensive analysis of novel materials in the field of vascular intervention, and NiTi alloys are one of the best materials among them. NiTi alloys are the shape-memory alloys that undergo a phase transformation under certain temperatures and pressures. Owing to its shape memory effect and superelastic properties, it is extensively utilized in the medical filed, representing a future direction for smart materials. As the field of medical intervention evolves, the advantages of NiTi alloys in vascular interventional medical devices are increasingly recognized due to their superior performance, garnering widespread attention. As a result, analyzing their medical applications is required in order to promote interdisciplinary integration. This review summarizes the structural properties, preparation methods, and application areas of NiTi alloys as medical devices for vascular interventions. It also analyzes the properties of NiTi alloys when used as stents or guidewires in specific scenarios, and discusses the current shortcomings, future development directions and application prospects.

Catalyzed by MoO, mullite whiskers were synthesized through a molten salt method. This study comprehensively explored the impact of reaction temperature, MoO mass fraction, and calcination temperature on the morphology of mullite whiskers. Employing analytical techniques such as XRD and SEM, the phase composition and morphology of the samples were meticulously scrutinized. The results unveiled that at a MoO mass fraction of 7–8% (molar fraction) and a calcination temperature of 800 °C, mullite whiskers demonstrated a heightened level of purity. Building on these observations, the study delved into the mechanistic underpinnings of MoO as a catalyst in mullite whisker synthesis. It is proved that the metal oxides contained in the silica-alumina glue slag can also form a local liquid phase at low temperatures, reducing the viscosity of the reaction system and liquefaction temperature. The addition of molybdenum oxide makes the reaction process of mullite whisker growth shorter. At the same time, the addition of molybdenum oxide can effectively reduce the viscosity of the reaction system, thus lowering the reaction temperature and increasing the reaction efficiency. In addition molybdenum oxide can be used as a templating agent to induce the growth of mullite whiskers along specific crystal planes. Compared with aluminum fluoride catalysis, molybdenum oxide does not produce the hazardous gas HF, the sublimated molybdenum oxide gas can be recycled, and the molybdenum oxide attached to the whiskers can also be dissolved in water. These theories provide experience in the large-scale preparation of mullite whiskers.
在氧化钼的催化下,通过熔盐法合成了莫来石晶须。本研究全面探讨了反应温度、MoO 质量分数和煅烧温度对莫来石晶须形貌的影响。利用 XRD 和 SEM 等分析技术,对样品的相组成和形态进行了细致的研究。结果表明,在氧化亚墨质量分数为 7-8%(摩尔分数)、煅烧温度为 800 °C 的条件下,莫来石晶须的纯度更高。基于这些观察结果,研究深入探讨了氧化钼作为莫来石晶须合成催化剂的机理基础。研究证明,二氧化硅-氧化铝胶渣中含有的金属氧化物还能在低温下形成局部液相,从而降低反应体系的粘度和液化温度。氧化钼的加入使莫来石晶须生长的反应过程缩短。同时,氧化钼的加入还能有效降低反应体系的粘度,从而降低反应温度,提高反应效率。此外,氧化钼还可用作模板剂,诱导莫来石晶须沿特定晶面生长。与氟化铝催化反应相比,氧化钼不会产生有害气体 HF,升华后的氧化钼气体可以回收利用,而且附着在晶须上的氧化钼还可以溶解在水中。这些理论为大规模制备莫来石晶须提供了经验。

The construction industry has been constantly expanding and is, consequently responsible for a high consumption volume of natural raw materials and for generating large amounts of waste. In detriment of this scenario, this research proposes the reuse of Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW), especially that from plaster for making mortars. The residue was thermo-activated at 650 °C for a period of 2h, a heating rate of 10 °C/min, it was crushed in a jaw crusher and passed through an ABNT N° 16 sieve. The mortars were prepared with a (cement:sand) ratio of 1:6 by mass, the sand was partially replaced by the residue in proportions of 0, 10, 20 and 30%, using Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). Tests were carried out on consistency index, mass density, incorporated air content, isothermal calorimetry, water retention, mass density in the hardened state, flexural strength, compressive strength, water absorption and void index, in addition to testing techniques characterization, such as laser granulometry, pozzolanic activity using the Modified Chapelle method and Lúxan method, X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) as well as Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP). It was possible to observe that the residue has amorphous phases, through XRD and heterogeneous nucleation of smaller particles, proven by the calorimetry test, contributing to the increase in mechanical strength. The results indicate that the mixture with 30% replacement achieved a greater increase in mechanical strength, lower absorption rates and consequently, a reduction in the distribution of pore sizes.

This study explores the synthesis and application of carbon-negative technology that leverage circular economy and environmentally friendly methodologies. Porous silica using plant-derived silica sources and self-assembled lignin templates were prepared, achieving an impresive surface area of up to 104.76 m/g. Additionally, we prepared porous composite films via a freeze-drying process incorporating polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). These films demonstrated enhanced tensile properties, with a tensile strength reaching 285.72 kPa. Notably, the film surfaces engaged in a third-body tribology mechanism, which endowed them with excellent abrasion resistance and a low friction coefficient. The specific surface area of the films was measured at 20.15 m/g, making them ideal substrates for CO₂ adsorption functionalization. The functionalized films showcased outstanding CO₂ adsorption capabilities, with a maximum uptake of 29.38 mg/g. Furthermore, they retained over 90% of their adsorption capacity after five adsorption/desorption cycles. Under high CO₂ conditions, these composite films combine the desirable attributes of both solid and liquid adsorbents—high surface area, low volatility, and adsorption stability—contributing significantly to greenhouse gas mitigation and the pursuit of carbon neutrality.

The strain rate dependence of mechanical behavior in an AlSi10Mg alloy with different states fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) was investigated systematically via thermodynamic calculations, microstructure characterization and mechanical characteristic evaluation in the present study. The results show that there is a close relationship among the material state, microstructure and dynamic mechanical behavior. Before tensile deformation, the as-built specimen possesses a fine equiaxed grain structure and a typical cellular structure surrounded by continuously distributed particles; the annealed specimen has coarser equiaxed grain structures and particles, but no cellular structure is present. Both the as-built and annealed specimens exhibit weak strain rate sensitivity, and the strain rate sensitivity parameters are 0.01 and 0.024, respectively. Under specific strain rate conditions, the as-built specimen has a higher strength and lower elongation than the annealed specimen. After tensile deformation, there is a significant increase in the dislocation density. Independent of the material state, the dislocation density increases with increasing strain rate. Compared with the as-built specimen, the annealed specimen has a stronger strain rate sensitivity because of the greater dislocation density variation.

However, litmited performance and high dispersion has always existed for the traditional manufacturing process. A novel Electroshock Treatment (EST) procedure proposed by author's team can synergistically improve the mechanical properties and its consistency of titanium alloys under limited temperature rise, but the relevant mechanism is not yet clear. In present work, the effects of various EST conditions on the mechanical characteristics were investigated by uniaxial tensile testing, and the effect mechanism was revealed using multi-scale microstructure characterization of titanium alloys, such as SEM, EBSD and TEM. The uniaxial tensile test results show that, compared with the sample without EST, the average elongation after fracture improved by 12.5%, the strength-plastic product improved by 16.1%, and the consistency of UTS and elongation after fracture improved by 63.4% and 57.1%, respectively, with a slight increase of tensile strength (30 MPa) after appropriate treatment (current density of 0.93 × 10A/m, and pulse duration of 300 ms). The multi-scale microscopic characterization reveals a more uniform distribution of stress concentration in TC11 titanium alloy following the appropriate EST process. Besides, the entanglement of dislocations is reduced with some dislocations being annihilated. Especially, the remaining dislocations undergoing orderly rearrangement at grain boundaries after EST. The homogenization of local lattice distortion distribution and orderly rearrangement of dislocations at grain boundaries are the primary factors contributing to the comprehensive improvement in the mechanical properties and consistency of TC11 Titanium alloy.
