Copper pastes are widely used in metallization of ceramic surfaces but are limited by poor oxidation resistance, high resistivity, and low bonding strength. In this work, the 30Bi 2 O 3 –55B 2 O 3 –15ZnO glass powder was prepared by the melt-quenching method. A copper paste containing the glass powder and formic acid-treated copper microparticles was used for metallization of α -Al 2 O 3 ceramic surface. The copper thick films were obtained by low-temperature sintering after screen printing. The effects of the glass powder contents on resistivities and shear strengths of the copper films on α -Al 2 O 3 ceramic substrate were analyzed. The microstructures of the copper thick films and the interfacial bonding mechanism on the α -Al 2 O 3 ceramic surface were investigated in detail. The copper thick film with 10-wt% 30Bi 2 O 3 –55B 2 O 3 –15ZnO glass and sintered at 650 °C for 20 min exhibited a low resistivity (3.38 ± 0.94 µΩ cm) and a high shear strength (35.24 ± 1.2 MPa). ZnAl 2 O 4 and Bi 2 B 4 O 9 were detected on the edges of the copper film near the interface, which enhanced interfacial binding between the copper thick films and the α -Al 2 O 3 ceramic substrate. These results demonstrated that the low-temperature sintering copper paste containing 30Bi 2 O 3 –55B 2 O 3 –15ZnO glass was effective for α -Al 2 O 3 ceramic surface metallization.

This study investigates the combustion characteristics of reactive aluminium alloys in combination with fluoropolymer oxidizers. Aluminium-magnesium (Al-Mg) and aluminium-titanium (Al-Ti) alloys were selected as metallic fuels, while polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) was employed as the oxidizer. Composite samples were prepared using two methods: electrostatic spraying (ES) and physical mixing (PM). The ES method yielded samples with a PVDF-coated structure, whereas the PM method produced simple mixtures. The samples and their combustion products were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), combustion experiments, and thermal analysis. The results indicate that compared to the PM samples, the ES-coated samples exhibited more effective dispersion of metallic particles, reduced particle agglomeration, increased combustion heat release temperature, decreased maximum flame area and height, and mitigated or eliminated explosive or micro-explosive phenomena during combustion, thereby achieving stable combustion. Additionally, the ES samples demonstrated a significant reduction in the particle size of condensed-phase products after combustion, alleviated sintering and agglomeration, decreased the formation of metal oxides, and minimized residual metallic fuel, allowing for the full release of combustion heat. Thermal analysis revealed that the coating structure of the ES samples lowered the activation energy for the reaction between the metallic fuel and PVDF, thereby enhancing the chemical reactivity.

The cBN, Zr, and Al powders were mixed to synthesize PcBN (polycrystalline cubic boron nitride) tool material under high-temperature, ultra-high-pressure conditions. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyze the phase composition and microstructure of the tool material. The mechanical properties and microstructural trends of the tool material at various temperatures were investigated. Research indicates the formation of new phases in the PcBN material following high-temperature and ultra-high-pressure sintering. However, there is no significant difference in the types of formed new phases, all of which consist of BN, ZrB 2 , ZrN, and AlN. The sintering density of the tool material was higher at 1500 °C and 1600 °C, and the mechanical properties improved with increasing sintering temperature . The highest number of tool processing parts made of PcBN tool material synthesized at 1600 °C is 232.

The objective of this study is to enhance the mixing uniformity and contact efficiency between nano-Al and oxidizers through structural control, while suppressing the “pre – ignition fusion” effect of nanothermites. We employed biotemplate approach, utilizing Lycopodium japonicum Thunb. spores (LP) and Papilio maackii wings (PW) as sacrificial templates, to successfully fabricate hierarchically structured Al/PW-CuO and Al/LP-CuO nanothermites. At a stoichiometric ratio of Ф = 1.5, Al/PW-CuO exhibited the highest heat release of 2278.00 J/g, whereas Al/LP-CuO also achieved a substantial heat release of 1969.08 J/g. These outstanding performances are attributed to the unique structures of PW-CuO and LP-CuO, especially the spine-like plate structure of PW-CuO, which provides more reaction sites, thereby enhancing spatial utilization and heat release efficiency. This study provides new insights for the design and application of highly active nanoenergetic materials.

Polytetrafluoroethylene/Aluminum (PTFE/Al) composite with high energy density and combustion reaction performance has received widespread attention in the field of propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics. In order to precisely control combustion reaction and energy output performance, gradient structured PTFE/Al composite (mass and diameter gradient) has been designed and constructed through 3D printing technology . PTFE/Al ink is prepared by acoustic resonance mixing to control rheological properties (viscosity and modulus) for 3D printing technology. The largest reaction heat (7749.95 J/g) and burning rate (~130 mm/s) are achieved for gradient lines with diameter of 2.42 mm and mass ratio of 60:40 (PTFE/Al). Moreover, the progressive change from steady combustion to deflagration containing three stages of pressure output is observed for gradient structured PTFE/Al cylinder. This work reveals that gradient structure could provide new strategy to tune energy output and combustion performances, which can promote the practical application of PTFE/Al reactive materials.

Controlling and modulating the magnitude and signs of electric polarization in multiferroics are very important for practical applications. The magnetoelectric effect in multiferroic materials enables the control and tailor of electric polarization by a magnetic field or vice versa . However, there are rare investigations about the mutual control of the magnitude and signs of electric polarization in multiferroics . Here, we successfully synthesized single crystals of Y-type hexaferrites Ba 0.8 Sr 1.2 Co 2 Fe 12- x Al x O 22 ( x = 0 and 1.08) via flux method. The magnetization, magnetodielectric and magnetoelectric properties were investigated. We found that Al-doping increased the conical magnetic structure transition temperatures and enhanced the magnetoelectric properties. Most importantly, both samples exhibited reversal and non-reversal polarizations at low and high temperatures, respectively. In addition, Al-doping can stabilize the non-reversal ferroelectric polarization, possibly originating from the different field-dependent magnetic structure transitions.

Herein, a ZnO-doped plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) composite coating was prepared on the surface of a 1060 Al alloy by adding ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) to the composite electrolytes of alkaline sodium silicate (Na 2 SiO 3 ) and sodium hexametaphosphate ((NaPO 3 ) 6 ). To efficiently investigate the coating's microstructure, the detached PEO coating was prepared without damage via an electrochemical method. The morphology and phase composition of the PEO coating were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and an incorporation model of ZnO-NPs was established. The results showed that the addition of ZnO-NPs slightly prolonged the anodic oxidation time and increased the breakdown voltage, whereas the working voltage and final voltage decreased slightly. The XRD results indicated that although the addition of ZnO-NPs did not result in the production of Zn-containing phases, it affected the formation and transformation reactions of other phases. SEM micrographs of the fractured cross-section of detached coating and coating/substrate interface indicated that the ZnO-NPs did not enter the interface layer, nor did it participate in the formation of the cap structure at the interface. Based on the experimental results and the “cascade discharge” model, an incorporation model of ZnO-NPs in PEO has been proposed.

Lithium–aluminum layered double hydroxides (Li/Al-LDHs) have achieved successful industrial-scale application in lithium extraction from salt lakes due to their excellent structural stability, high selectivity and environmental friendliness. However, they suffer from limited adsorption capacity. Herein, this issue can be effectively resolved by precise regulation of the LDH nucleation strategy, thereby controlling oxygen species content. The Li/Al-LDHs are synthesized via a one-pot precipitation method, and the nucleation conditions, including Al/Li ratio, crystallization temperature and terminal pH, are systematically optimized through crystal growth analysis, adsorption performance evaluation, and structural stability characterization. The results confirm that the adsorption capacity of Li/Al-LDHs is critically dependent on the pH value attained at equilibrium. Notably, the terminal pH simultaneously governs Al(OH)3 nucleation and Li+ intercalation through oxygen speciation control. The elevated active oxygen content (38.65%) enhances hydrophilicity (contact angle 22.5°) and strengthens lithium-ion diffusion kinetics. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation further indicates that high levels of active oxygen (37.5%) facilitate low formation energy (−3.527 eV) and adsorption energies (−0.739 eV), confirming the correlation between the structure and Li active sites. What's more, the prepared Li/Al-LDHs show outstanding lithium adsorption performance with a maximum adsorption capacity of 13.42 mg g−1 in East Taijinar salt-lake brine. The separation coefficients of Na+, K+, and Mg2+ are 395.86, 140.89, and 121.69, respectively. This study provides vital insights for advancing high-performance aluminum-based lithium adsorbents.

Al powder is prone to oxidation, which can introduce impurities in powder metallurgy. In this study, Al 2 O 3 nanonetworks were obtained by destroying the oxide layer through Paulse Activated Sintering (PAS). The network and the nano-precipitation enhance the mechanical properties of Al-Cu-O composites. TEM analysis revealed the formation of CuAl 2 and an Al 2 O 3 network at the grain boundaries. The current facilitated the modulation of the intermetallic compound size and the fragmentation of the oxide layer. The current-induced discharge at the particle interfaces generated localized heating. Higher temperature effectively disrupts the oxide layer. The Al 2 O 3 network improved the fracture toughness of the Al-Cu-O composites by passivating crack propagation. Simultaneously, the current reduced the nucleation barrier for precipitation by promoting directional atomic migration. Uniformly dispersed nano-precipitates are conducive to the improvement of strength. This study provides new insights into oxidation-related challenges in Al powder.

The surface wettability of an electrocatalyst plays an important role in electrocatalysis of the hydrogen evolution reaction from water splitting. Herein, Al-doped NiP 2 nanosheets are synthesized on carbon fiber paper (Al–NiP 2 NSs/CFP) with a superhydrophilic and aerophobic surface as a hydrogen evolution reaction electrode. The Al–NiP 2 NSs/CFP electrode exhibits superior hydrogen evolution activity with a low overpotential of 58 mV to achieve 10 mA cm −2 in 0.5 m H 2 SO 4 . In particular, it even exhibits better electrochemical performance than commercial Pt/C electrodes at high current densities. Theoretical calculations indicate that Al dopants can alter the electronic structures and optimize the hydrogen adsorption free energy of NiP 2 . The superhydrophilic and aerophobic surface favors the H 2 bubbles release from the electrocatalyst surface and promotes the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance at high current densities. Potential ways to fabricate efficient non-noble metal electrocatalyts for large-scale industrial hydrogen production applications are provided through electronic structure engineering and surface constructing.

Incorporating reinforcements can improve the mechanical properties of Al matrix composites but make them susceptible to corrosion attacks by facilitating the formation of a galvanic cell network along the interface. The optimization of the interfacial structure improves the corrosion resistance of the composites. Herein, a solid-state thermite reaction integrated with a heat treatment strategy was developed to create plain interfaces, encompassing the grain boundary (GB) and reinforcement–matrix interface, in an Al–CuO composite system. The intergranular corrosion behavior and susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking of the composite were comprehensively examined by immersion/electrochemical corrosion tests and microstructural characterizations. The intragranular distribution of nanosized secondary phases, i.e., Al 2 O 3 and precipitates, was investigated to address their contribution to the continuous galvanic cell detachment along the GBs and interruption of the corrosion path, thus boosting the corrosion duration. In addition, the tightly bonded Al 2 O 3 –Al interface with low strain energy distinctly lowers local susceptibility to corrosion. This study illuminates the correlation between interface characteristics and corrosion mechanisms in the composites, which can shed light on the development of high-corrosion-resistant composites.

Al current collectors are widely adopted in nonaqueous batteries because of their low cost, high conductivity, and low density, yet their deployment in aqueous congeners (i.e., Zn-ion batteries) is largely precluded by concurrent issues of surface passivation and electrolyte-driven corrosion. Here, an on-site N-doped carbon-skinned Al current collector (NC@Al) is developed to resolve this longstanding dilemma. Enabled by an ultrafast Joule heating process, elevated temperature carbonization could be completed in seconds without thermally deforming the Al substrate, which renders a dense and continuous double-sided NC overlayer, affording favorable interfacial adhesion. Combined theoretical calculations and experimental diagnostics verify the NC overlayer simultaneously helps suppress the Al passivation–corrosion issue and promote uniform Zn deposition. As a result, symmetric cells based on NC@Al exhibit durable cycling beyond 3500 h at 0.5 mA cm–2/0.25 mAh cm–2. When paired with an iodine cathode, our constructed pouch cells with an active material loading of 25 mg cm–2 sustain stable operation for 1000 cycles under a stringent N/P ratio of 1.77. Technoeconomic analysis further highlights the energy-efficiency advantage of our route in practical manufacturing. This work establishes a strategy for employing commercially available Al current collector materials toward aqueous batteries.
