Wu et. al. showed that an interface-engineered RuP2/Mn2P2O7 heterojunction delivered high activity and durability for alkaline hydrogen evolution. 👉brnw.ch/21x2wXw #MaterialsScience #MDPIMaterials #HydrogenEvolution

The study found that increasing the volume energy density promoted the transition from columnar to equiaxed grains and suppressed mechanical anisotropy in a novel near-β titanium alloy 👉brnw.ch/21x2wR9 #MaterialsScience #TitaniumAlloy #Titanium

This study demonstrated that cyclic warm rolling effectively refined grains & increased interfacial bonding in MoCu30 alloys, leading to enhanced strength 👉Read the full paper here: brnw.ch/21x2wMk #MaterialsScience #MDPIMaterials

The study developed a mathematical model for asymmetrical rolling of ultra-thin strips considering elastic deformation of the strips, finding that elastic deformation reduces tension and rolling pressure, leading to a decrease in reduction ratio 👉brnw.ch/21x2uJW #MDPI

Our recent review from Inamdar et. al. summarized recent advances in carbon-based #electrocatalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution reactions. 👉brnw.ch/21x2uJD #Catalysis #MaterialsScience #OER #Review

The study designed nickel-free superelastic titanium alloys using a CatBoost model and Bayesian optimization, and after heat treatment optimization, Ti-12Nb-18Zr-2Sn alloy achieved a recovery strain of 4.65%. 👉brnw.ch/21x2utm #MaterialsScience #MDPIMaterials

This study evaluated how varying amounts of recycled polypropylene blended with virgin PP & glass fibers affected material properties, showing that re-granulates markedly altered processability while glass fibers preserved the key mechanical performance brnw.ch/21x2ulE

The researchers developed a novel triple-wire hybrid welding process that significantly increased the deposition rate while producing welded joints with excellent mechanical properties for ultrahigh-strength steel. 👉brnw.ch/21x2t0J #MaterialsScience #MDPIMaterials
