This study created ceramic preforms with a 3D network structure (TAD3D) by using treated aluminum dross (TAD) and kaolin slurry, with 30 ppi polyurethane foam as a template via the sacrificial template method. TAD3D/5A05Al composites were then produced via pressureless infiltration of 5A05Al aluminum alloy into TAD3D. The corrosion behavior and resistance of TAD3D/5A05Al in salt spray were assessed via neutral salt spray corrosion (NSS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests. The results showed that after 24 to 360 h of NSS corrosion, the corrosion of the 5A05 matrix was primarily pitting, with pits expanding and deepening over time, and showing a tendency to interconnect. The main corrosion products were MgAl2O4, Al(OH)3, and Al2O3. As corrosion progressed, these products increased and filled cracks, pits, and grooves at the composite interface on the material’s surface. Corrosion products transferred to the grooves at the composite interface and grew on the ceramic surface. Corrosion products on the ceramic framework and the Al matrix can form a continuous passivation film covering the composite surface. PDP and EIS results indicated that the composite’s corrosion resistance decreased by 240 h but increased after that time. After 240 h, the surface passivation film can weaken corrosion effects and enhance the composite’s resistance, although it remained weaker than that of the uncorroded samples. Additionally, grooves at the composite interface deepened over time, with loosely structured corrosion products inside, potentially leading to severe localized corrosion.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of 304L austenitic stainless steel (SS) in a 325 °C high-temperature and high-pressure water environment were investigated by a corrosion fatigue test system, by electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD), and by a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The experimental results indicated that the crack growth rate (CGR) of 304L SS increases with increasing the stress intensity factor, stress level, and fatigue frequency (f). Compared to dissolved hydrogen (DH) in a high-temperature water environment, dissolved oxygen (DO) significantly enhances the CGR by about an order of magnitude higher. The crack tip of 304L SS after the corrosion fatigue test under higher stress levels is sharper, with more secondary cracks on the fracture surface, while the crack tip under lower stress levels is blunter with relatively fewer secondary cracks. The oxidation behavior at the crack tip was analyzed under different loading and water chemistry conditions, and a related effect on the crack tip and CGR was clarified.

Based on first principles density functional theory (DFT) methods, this study employed the Cambridge Serial Total Energy Package (CASTEP) module within Materials Studio (MS) software under the generalized gradient approximation to investigate the adsorption, diffusion behavior, and electronic properties of hydrogen atoms on α-Fe(110) and α-Fe(110)-Me (Mn, Cr, Ni, Mo) surfaces, including calculations of their adsorption energies and density of states (DOS). The results demonstrated that doping with alloy atoms Me increased the physical adsorption energy of H2 molecules on the surface. Specifically, Mo doping elevated the adsorption energy from −1.00825 eV to −0.70226 eV, with the largest relative change being 30.35%. After doping with Me, the chemical adsorption energy of two hydrogen atoms does not change significantly, among which doping with Cr results in a decrease in the chemical adsorption energy. Building on this, further analysis of the chemical adsorption of single atoms on the surface was conducted. By comparing the adsorption energy and the bond length between a hydrogen atom and iron/dopant metal atom, it was found that Mo doping has the greatest impact, increasing the bond length by 58.58%. Analysis of the DOS functions under different doping conditions validated the interaction between different alloy elements and H atoms. Simultaneously, simulations were carried out on the energy barrier crossed by H atoms diffusing into the metal interior. The results indicate that Ni doping facilitates the diffusion of H atoms, while Cr, Mn, and Mo hinder their diffusion, with Mo having the most significant effect, where its barrier is 21.88 times that of the undoped surface. This conclusion offers deep insights into the impact of different doping elements on hydrogen adsorption and diffusion, aiding in the design of materials resistant to hydrogen embrittlement.
本研究基于第一原理密度泛函理论（DFT）方法，采用材料工作室（MS）软件中的剑桥序列总能量包（CASTEP）模块，在广义梯度近似下研究了氢原子在α-Fe（110）和α-Fe（110）-Me（锰、铬、镍、钼）表面的吸附、扩散行为和电子特性，包括计算其吸附能和状态密度（DOS）。结果表明，掺杂合金原子 Me 增加了表面上 H2 分子的物理吸附能。具体来说，掺入 Mo 后，吸附能从-1.00825 eV 上升到-0.70226 eV，最大的相对变化为 30.35%。掺杂 Me 后，两个氢原子的化学吸附能变化不大，其中掺杂 Cr 会导致化学吸附能下降。在此基础上，我们进一步分析了表面单原子的化学吸附情况。通过比较氢原子和铁/掺杂金属原子之间的吸附能和键长，发现掺杂钼的影响最大，键长增加了 58.58%。不同掺杂条件下的 DOS 函数分析验证了不同合金元素与氢原子之间的相互作用。同时，还对 H 原子扩散到金属内部所跨越的能量障碍进行了模拟。结果表明，镍元素的掺杂促进了 H 原子的扩散，而铬、锰和钼元素则阻碍了 H 原子的扩散，其中钼元素的影响最为显著，其能障是未掺杂表面的 21.88 倍。这一结论深入揭示了不同掺杂元素对氢吸附和扩散的影响，有助于设计抗氢脆材料。

High-pressure die casting (HPDC) has been extensively used to manufacture aluminum alloy heat dissipation components in the fields of vehicles, electronics, and communication. With the increasing demand for HPDC heat dissipation components, the thermal conductivity of die-cast aluminum alloys is paid more attention. In this paper, a comprehensive review of the research progress on the thermal conductivity of HPDC aluminum alloys is provided. First of all, we introduce the general heat transport mechanism in aluminum alloys, including electrical transport and phonon transport. Secondly, we summarize several common die-cast aluminum alloy systems utilized for heat dissipation components, such as an Al–Si alloy system and silicon-free aluminum alloy systems, along with the corresponding composition optimizations for these alloy systems. Thirdly, the effect of processing parameters, which are significant for the HPDC process, on the thermal conductivity of HPDC aluminum alloys is discussed. Moreover, some heat treatment strategies for enhancing the thermal conductivity of die-cast aluminum alloys are briefly discussed. Apart from experimental findings, a range of theoretical models used to calculate the thermal conductivity of die-cast aluminum alloys are also summarized. This review aims to guide the development of new high-thermal-conductivity die-cast aluminum alloys.

MgAl oxide coatings composed of MgO and MgAl2O4 phases were doped with CeO2 particles via plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of AZ31 magnesium alloy in a 5 g/L NaAlO2 water solution. Subsequently, particles of CeO2 up to 8 g/L were added. Extensive investigations were conducted to examine the morphology, the chemical and phase compositions, and, most importantly, the photoluminescent (PL) properties and photocatalytic activity (PA) during the photodegradation of methyl orange. The number of CeO2 particles incorporated into MgAl oxide coatings depends on the concentration of CeO2 particles in the aluminate electrolyte. However, the CeO2 particles do not significantly affect the thickness, phase structure, or surface morphology of the coatings. The PL emission spectrum of MgAl oxide coatings is divided into two bands: one in the 350–600 nm range related to structural defects in MgO, and another much more intense band in the 600–775 nm range attributed to the F+ centres in MgAl2O4. The incorporated CeO2 particles do not have a significant effect on the PL intensity of the band in the red spectral region, but the PL intensity of the first band increases with the concentration of CeO2 particles. The PA of MgAl/CeO2 oxide coatings is higher than that of pure MgAl oxide coatings. The MgAl/CeO2 oxide coating developed in aluminate electrolyte with a concentration of 2 g/L CeO2 particles exhibited the highest PA. The MgAl/CeO2 oxide coatings remained chemically and physically stable across multiple cycles, indicating their potential for applications.

This paper presents the deformation of a joined sheet after the clinch riveting process. The DX51D steel sheet with zinc coating was used. The samples to be joined with clinch riveting technology had a thickness of 1 ± 0.05 mm and 1.5 ± 0.1 mm. The sheet deformation was measured before and after the joining process. The rivet was pressed in the sheets with the same dimension between the rivet axis and three sheet edges: 20, 30, and 40 mm. For fixed segments of the die, from the rivet side close to the rivet, the sheet deformation was greater than that of the area with movable segments. The movement of the die’s sliding element caused more sheet material to flow in the space between the fixed part of the die and movable segments. Hence, the sheet deformation in these places was smaller than for the die’s fixed element—the sheet material was less compressed. For sheet thickness values of 1.5 mm and a width value of 20 mm, the bulk of the sheet was observed. For a sheet width of 20 mm, it was observed that the deformation of the upper and lower sheets in the area of the rivet was greater than for sheet width values of 30 or 40 mm.

The influence of the applied pressure and electrical parameters on the macrostructure of specimens consolidated by the medium-frequency electrical resistance sintering technique (MF-ERS) is analysed in this work. This technique is based on the application of pressure to a mass of conductive powder that, simultaneously, is being crossed by a high intensity and low voltage electric current. The simultaneous action of the pressure and the heat released by the Joule effect causes the densification and consolidation of the powder mass in a very short time. The effect of the current intensity and heating time on the global porosity, the porosity distribution, and the microhardness of sintered compacts is studied for two applied pressures (100 and 150 MPa). For the different experiments of electrical consolidation, a commercially available pure iron powder was chosen. For comparison purposes, the properties of the compacts consolidated by MF-ERS are compared with the results obtained by the conventional powder metallurgy route (cold pressing and furnace sintering). Results show that, as expected, higher current intensities and dwelling times, as well as higher pressures and the consolidation of compacts with lower aspects ratios, produce denser materials.
