This study focuses on the fabrication of a hybrid Ag-mesh/Ta-doped TiO2 (TTO) electrode that has a low sheet resistance and high transparency in the visible and near-infrared region, thereby holding significant commercialization ...

In the present investigation, the formation of nanocrystalline bi-alkali halide (NaCl+KCl) obtained by combined low temperature (cryomilling) with room temperature (RT) milling was reported. The cryomilling, which is endowed ...

Slippery AA 5083 alloy surfaces were fabricated by using ground (mean roughness-Ra = 45±2 µm), polished (Ra = 9±3 µm) and hot embossed micro-patterned specimens, and coating them with silicone oils of varying viscosities ...

The work herein presents the designing of two γʹ strengthened high entropy alloys guided by density function theory (DFT) and thermodynamics calculations with compositions Co34Ni34Cr12Al8Nb3Ti4Fe5 and Co31.5Ni31.5Cr12Al8Nb3Ti4Fe10 ...

Surface features’ morphology is crucial in designing lubricant-infused slippery surfaces (LIS). Microcavities were hypothesized to provide lower physical pinning, reduced droplet normal adhesion, and superior lubricant ...

In this study, a novel in-situ carbon growth technique by a modified sol gel synthesis method is presented. The carbon support developed on a transition metal oxide composite transforms the electronic conductivity and is ...

The recent progress in nanofiber research has demonstrated the potential for improving the physical properties of materials through the integration of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP). This study involves the synthesis and ...

The current study aimed to develop a reusable antibacterial coating that can be employed for efficient bacterial killing. We synthesized a water-soluble methacrylamide-based copolymer consisting of cationic and hydrophobic ...

The effect of post-deposition heat treatment on microstructure and fatigue crack growth has been analyzed for electron beam melted Ti-6Al-4V plates. Samples have been heat-treated at temperatures of 950 °C and 1050 °C, and ...

The fabrication of compact heat exchangers with precisely designed micro- and mini-channels is crucial for enhancing the efficiency of thermal management systems. Friction stir channeling (FSC) emerges as a cost-effective ...
