Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr based AA7010 aluminum alloy belongs to the class of heat treatable alloys and the semi-finished products are generally produced by hot rolling, forging or extrusion processes. It is well known that the ...

It is well known that texture and microstructure play a crucial role in determining properties of metallic materials. The evolution of microstructure and texture during deformation and annealing of copper and some copper ...

Conventional metallic coatings are widely used for protection against corrosion. This study investigates the correlation between microstructure and corrosion properties in SnCr and CuCr electrodeposited coatings. The wide ...

Eutectic alloys find a wide application in industrial cast alloys, solder alloys, and in the emerging field of functional materials. Apart from technological applications, multiphase eutectic alloys have also received keen ...

Coatings have been traditionally used for protection against corrosion. Therefore, substantial efforts have been focused on engineering the microstructure and morphology of coatings to enhance their corrosion resistance ...

High entropy alloys (HEA) are composed of five or more alloying elements in a nearly equi-atomic ratio. HEAs exhibit high oxidation and corrosion resistance behaviour. In this work, HEA coatings were electrodeposited over ...

The length scale, composition, orientation of the phases in a material constitutes its microstructure. In order to appreciate the whole gamut of microstructures observed in multi-component alloys, an identification of the ...
