Our recent study investigated the effect of high-pressure torsion extrusion on the corrosion behavior of pure magnesium and ZK60 alloy in phosphate-buffered saline finding that pure magnesium exhibited lower corrosion activity than ZK60 brnw.ch/21x1nPa #MaterialsScience

This study found that the organic composition ratio in PVco-D-fabricated MEAPbI₃ thin films altered their surface topography and crystallite size, and determined their orthorhombic-to-tetragonal phase transition temperature to be approximately 140 K. 👉brnw.ch/21x1mny

This study investigated the effect of milling strategies on lithium disilicate crowns and found that the finest strategy produced significantly better marginal fit for IPS e.max CAD, though all results remained clinically acceptable. 👉brnw.ch/21x1lYh

Increasing solidification front velocity was found to refine primary silicon, while electromagnetic stirring using a rotating magnetic field helped stabilize its morphology in hypereutectic Al-Si alloys. 👉Read the full findings here: brnw.ch/21x1l5M #MaterialsScience
