When loss of material due to sliding of two solids is promoted/prevented, in the presence of chemically reacting liquid or gas, tribochemical wear is said to occur. Tribochemical wear, in which corrosive media promotes ...

Selective laser melting (SLM) of metallic powders is an additive manufacturing technique that is widely employed to produce 3D components, and is fast becoming an important method for manufacturing near-net shape and complex ...

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air and heavy metal ions, anions, microorganism in water are environmental contaminants that require detection at certain low concentrations to avoid detrimental effects. Analytical ...

Processing of Bulk Metastable Oxide Ceramics Oxide ceramic materials are extensively used in various modern application domains which require properties such as high temperature stability or creep resistance, wear ...

Pure Sn and Sn-alloys are widely used in electrical and microelectronic devices as protective layer to prevent oxidation of Cu conductors and also as a component of Pb-free, Sn-based solders. Sn coatings, typically 0.5-10 ...

The glass-forming composition ranges in Al-La-Ni and Mg-TM (Cu, Zn)-Y alloys were predicted using Miedema’s model. Glass-forming abilities of Al-La-Ni alloys and Mg-Cu-RE alloys were studied in terms of reduced glass ...
