V-based alloy membranes have huge potential for hydrogen separation and purification due to their higher hydrogen permeability , but suffer from hydrogen embrittlement . To address this matter, Pd and Fe have been chosen as alloying additions in V-based membranes to inhibit hydrogen embrittlement and maintain high hydrogen permeation performance based on the lattice-matching strategy. The phase structure, composition, microstructure and hydrogen permeation properties of V-Pd-Fe ternary alloy are investigated systematically, and the V-Fe and V-Pd binary alloys are presented for comparison. The results show that the prepared V-Pd-Fe ternary can match almost perfectly with pure V in lattice constants . Attributing to the lattice-matching strategy, the V-Pd-Fe ternary alloy exhibits more excellent hydrogen permeable properties than that of V-Fe and V-Pd binary alloys . The reduction of hydrogen embrittlement is ascribed to the lower hydrogen solubility that induced by the lattice distortion and electronegativity of Fe and Pd. Meanwhile, the manipulated lattice constant that parallel to pure V maintains high hydrogen permeation performance. Additionally, the designed ternary V 87.8 Pd 8 Fe 4.2 alloy exhibits exceptional long-term hydrogen permeation stability at 573 and 623 K, and hydrogen flux gradually decreases at 673 and 723 K is observed due to the interdiffusion between Pd film and V 87.8 Pd 8 Fe 4.2 substrate and defects in the Pd coating. This study offers new scenario and method for optimized hydrogen permeable properties and restrains hydrogen embrittlement in the alloy membrane.

Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + x LiAlH 4 ( x = 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, wt.%) composites were prepared by ball-milling, and the effects of LiAlH 4 content on structure and electrochemical properties of the composites were investigated systematically. The addition of LiAlH 4 to the Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni alloy significantly affected the morphology and size of the composite particles . The electrochemical cycling stability and rate dischargeability of the composite electrodes benefitted from adding some LiAlH 4 ( x = 1), which however deteriorated when the LiAlH 4 content increased further. The positive effect of LiAlH 4 on the electrochemical performance of the studied alloy was caused by suppression of the dissolution of active components of the Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni hydrogen storage alloy.

Palladium catalyst (Pd) are made attention to application in alcohol fuel cells due to unique performance, as well as the resource abundance and low cost, but the catalyst performance and stability of the catalysts are still not satisfied. In this article, the novel PdFe/B-N-G catalysts with the double element alloying and dual-doping for ethanol electro-oxidation are successfully prepared and determined by XRD, TEM and XPS. TEM results reveal a relatively uniform and high dispersion of Pd particles is observed on PdFe/B-N-G catalyst. The XPS analysis indicates that Pd(0) contents of the PdFe/B-N-G catalyst are increased on account of the B, N-doping effect. Being explored as the catalyst to the ethanol oxidation reactions, the PdFe/B-N-G catalysts exhibit the better electrocatalytic activity with higher current densities and catalyst stability compared to those of PdFe/G and Pd/B-N-G, which can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the enhanced PdFe alloying and the B, N-doping, that can produce more activity sites dispersing on the surface of graphene. Thus, the novel PdFe/B-N-G catalysts can be the potential alternate in alcohol fuel cells.

W-Re-HfC alloys have been extensively applied in the field of high-temperature structural parts. To ensure high temperature reliability, it is essential to enhance creep resistance ability. In this study, the microstructures of forged W-Re-HfC alloys were adjusted using different heat treatment processes . The corresponding tensile creep properties were also measured at 2000 °C with 40 MPa. Furthermore, a possible creep fracture mechanism was also explored. The forged W-Re-HfC sample annealed for 2 h exhibited the best creep performances with a steady-state creep rate of 3.28 × 10 −6 and a creep life of 5.6 h. Generally, a larger grain size indicates a lower steady-state creep rate; however, the precipitation of carbides at the grain boundaries (GBs) deteriorates the bonding strength of interfaces, thus reversing the former trend. The dominant creep mechanism is diffusion creep , in which the voids nucleate perpendicular to the GBs, grow and connect into cracks, ultimately leading to fractures.

Carbon nanomaterials that are electrochemically bifunctional and active in supercapacitor and hydrogen-evolution-reaction (HER) applications have attracted recent research attention. We have prepared porous carbon spheres - doped Ni, Co - alloys by using a hydrothermal method with melamine and pectin as precursors and with the addition of nickel nitrate and cobalt nitrate. The corresponding materials exhibit good electrochemical performance and excellent electrocatalytic activity for HER. The overpotential (OP) of the as-prepared materials can achieve 240 mV keeping a Tafel slope (TS) of 55 mV dec −1 at 10 mA cm −2 in an acid (0.5 M H 2 SO 4 ) solution. The corresponding samples maintain stability after 24 h and 5000 cycles in the chronovoltage and cyclic voltammetry methods, respectively. When the as-prepared materials are oxidized by 30% H 2 O 2 for 12 h, the corresponding as-prepared oxidation samples exhibit excellent electrochemical performance in a supercapacitor application. The specific capacitance (SC) of the as-obtained materials reaches 312 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 with decent rate capability and cyclic stability. This work provides new applications for bifunctional electrochemically active materials.

Nano-structured Half-Heusler TiNiSn thermoelectric bulk was prepared by microwave-assisted rapid solid-state synthesis and sintering. The mixture of powders of Ti, Ni, Sn was cold pressed before being heated by microwave irradiation. A microwave susceptor material rapidly heats the elemental starting materials inside an evacuated quartz tube resulting in near single phase compounds in 4 min 20 s. The synthesized sample was milled for 30 min in an agate mortar and cold pressed for the following sintering. An 86% density of TiNiSn thermoelectric bulk contains ∼100 nm pore and nanocrystal was sintered in 20 min. For TiNiSn bulk, low thermal conductivity of 2–3 W/m·K at temperatures in the range of the room temperature to 773 K. The ZT values of around 0.3 are found, with the microwave-prepared sample displaying noticeable superior properties over conventionally prepared half-Heuslers due to inclusion of nanopore and In-situ nanocrystal.

Nickel-titanium alloy (NiTi alloy) has recently received an increasing amount of attention. However, the release of toxic nickel ions and the threat of implant infections has limited its clinical applications. Thus, we report a promising copolymer coating with excellent nickel ion (Ni2+) inhibition release, cytocompatibility, and antimicrobial properties to solve these safety issues involving NiTi alloy implantation. Quaternized copolymers poly (7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin methacrylate-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PCHD-Q) with many hydroxyl and tertiary amine groups were first synthesized, self-assembled into nanoparticles, and then deposited on NiTi substrate through electrodeposition. After UV irradiation, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that homogeneous, continuous, and dense coatings were obtained. The coatings showed good improvement of protective behavior for the NiTi alloy in an in vitro environment and could significantly decrease the release of Ni2+ through physical barriers and physical adsorption, which could obviously reduce cytotoxicity inducing by Ni2+. According to in vitro cell viability and antibacterial tests, the quaternized coating materials not only provided a relatively stable biointerface for cell adhesion, spreading and growth, but also obtained excellent antimicrobial activity for the bare NiTi alloy against S. aureus and E. coli. These results suggested that our coatings materials have the potential for improving the safety and success rate of NiTi-based implantations.

The electro-deoxidation of MgO does not proceed efficiently due to the electrical insulation properties of MgO and large molar volume of metallic magnesium. In this experiment, an attempt was done to prepare Mg-Zr alloy from their oxides using the method of electro-deoxidation. The electrochemical mechanism of the deoxidation process of MgO, ZrO 2 and MgO-ZrO 2 composite was studied through cyclic voltammetry using metallic cavity electrode (MCE). There was an intermediate phase (Zr 3 O) in the reduction process of ZrO 2 . The electro-deoxidation of MgO occurred for MgO-ZrO 2 composite in CaCl 2 -NaCl molten salt. Moreover, the electro-deoxidation of MgO was promoted by the addition of polyvinyl butyral (PVB). The formation of metal phase Mg was confirmed by XRD, EDS, Raman spectroscopy, and inductively-coupled plasma spectroscopy. The electro-deoxidation products showed significant differences with the concentration of PVB and the ratio between MgO and ZrO 2 . The electro-deoxidation of MgO and ZrO 2 was favorable when the PVB concentration was 5.0% (wt.%). Pure metal phase of Mg-Zr alloys was formed when the molar ratio of MgO and ZrO 2 was 1:2. The atomic fraction of Mg in the electrolytic product was ca. 28.0 mol.%. This work shows that MgO could be directly electro-deoxidized to Mg without the formation of intermediate phase oxide.

In situ Ti(C, N), ring phase, and multi-phase enhanced Ni204-based alloy coating were prepared by adding various Ti/C/TiN ratios particles. The effects of the reinforcement phase on the microstructure, microhardness , tribological property, and microstructure characteristics at the interface between the coating and substrate were investigated. The results show that the coatings with a 5:1 mass fraction ratio of TiN/C exhibits the highest microhardness , which is 3.78 times higher than that of the original Ni204 coating. While, the coating with 21:7:2 mass fraction ratio of TiN/Ti/C exhibits the lowest friction coefficient , which is 4.44 times smaller than that of the original Ni204 coating. The addition of Ti and C particles promotes the precipitation of ring phase and carbides , reduces ceramic agglomeration, alleviates the floating of ceramic particles, and improves the bonding strength of reinforcement phases. Owing to the good mutual solubility among Fe, Ni, and, Cr elements, the diffusion happened at the interface between the coating and substrate.

The protective performances of coating formed by organo-silane with a linear alkyl chain for promoting aluminum alloy corrosion protection were evaluated by electrochemical techniques. The coatings were self-assembled in the hydrolyzed hydroalcoholic bath of n -octyltriethoxysilane (OS) and cured at hot air oven by different time. The coatings prepared by the less self-assembled number and shorter cured time, were always porous and scarcely protective. On the contrary, those built by the more self-assembled number and the longer cured time had higher coverage on aluminum surface and favorable corrosion resistant property. The best results were obtained when n -octyltri-ethoxysilane (OS) was hydrolyzed 25 h, self-assembling of OS was conducted for five times and the multi-layers were cured at 120 for 1∼2 hours. In this case, the thicker, high cross-linked and more scarcely defective layer was formed on aluminum alloy surface.

Porous Ni-Cu alloy films composed of nanosheets are directly fabricated on Cu substrate using a facile potentiostatic electrodeposition approach from a 1:2 choline chloride-ethylene glycol eutectic solvent (ethaline) containing nickel chloride and copper chloride. Electrochemical co-deposition of Ni-Cu alloy in ethaline is found to be thermodynamically favorable in comparison to conventional aqueous solutions. The deposition process occurs via an instantaneous nucleation and growth of nanoparticles at the initial stage and develops vertically to form nanoporous structures arrayed with nanosheets over deposition time . The as-prepared porous Ni-Cu alloy nanosheet arrays exhibit enhanced electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline media , which displays a small Tafel slope of 57.2 mV dec −1 with a low onset potential of −48 mV vs. RHE at an optimal condition. It requires small overpotentials of −128 and −150 mV to drive catalytic current densities of 10 and 20 mA cm −2 , respectively. This facile electrodeposition method performed in ethaline provides an efficient way to fabricate porous Ni-based alloy nanosheets directly on a current collector, which is a promising technology for the synthesis of earth-abundant HER electrocatalysts .

The preparation of the composite films on aluminum alloy 5052 (AA 5052) by the simple brush coating method in order to improve the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy is the urgent need. However, some preparation methods, such as chemical vapor deposition, heat treatment, are relatively high cost and their preparation condition is very rigorous. In this paper, boron nitride and silane for boron nitride (h-BN)-dodecyl trimethoxysilane (DTMS)- (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) are used to improve corrosion resistance of AA 5052 with a simple and low-cost method. The corrosion resistance of the film has been characterized by electrochemical test in the 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 + 2 ppm HF acid solution. The results show that the protection efficiency of the h-BN-DTMS-APTES composite film reaches 99.97%, which greatly improves the corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy 5052. When the sample is immersed into a 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 + 2 ppm HF aqueous solution for 120 h, the protection efficiency of the h-BN-DTMS-APTES composite film reaches 96.49% with good stability.
