Article Abstract

Our research aims to investigate the fabrication of additively manufactured (AMed) Ti-6Al-4V samples under reduced power with the addition of TiC heterogeneous nucleation site particles. For this aim, Ti-6Al-4V samples are fabricated with and without TiC heterogeneous nucleation site particles using an EOS M 290 machine under optimal parameters and reduced power conditions. The microstructure and tensile behavior of the produced samples were studied. In addition, a single-track test was performed to obtain a good understanding of the suppression of gas pores and balling formation with the addition of TiC heterogeneous nucleation site particles. It was found that the formation of gas pores and balling was suppressed with the addition of heterogeneous nucleation site particles within the metallic powder.

Surface nanobubbles nucleated on rough hydrophilic steel exhibit topography-dependent shapes.

Hypothesis: On highly cleaned planar surfaces submerged in highly cleaned water, flat surface nanobubbles with an angle of attachment of ∼15 are observed - never on engineering surfaces submerged in plain water, though here unidentified cavitation nuclei are always present and cause low tensile strength.

Experiments: In the present study, surface nanobubbles are generated by standard experimental techniques on a polished steel surface, and we find that the shape and the angles of attachment of the bubbles are influenced by the local substrate topography. These observations align with the theory of non-adsorbed liquid zones, which explains a surface nanobubble as a bubble with a skin of contamination molecules, which bond along the bubble rim at a contact angle of ∼14.

The binary composites of liquid () and crystalline () difluoroboron β-diketonate (BFdbk) complexes exhibited a metastable nature arising from the intricate interplay between their liquid and crystalline components in bulk. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements indicate nearly complete miscibility of and when the fractional volume of occupied a substantial portion, corresponding to below 47 mol % of the content. In contrast, polarized optical microscopic (POM) observations unveiled that the / composites between two glass slides crystallized regardless of the content.

This study introduces a novel bio-based flame retardant, MCC-GMA-PA-MEL, synthesized from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) modified with phytic acid (PA) and melamine (MEL). Characterization of the resulting composites revealed a significant enhancement in PLA crystallinity to 35.9 %, driven by improved molecular mobility and heterogeneous nucleation effects.

Biobased polyesters, recyclable sustainable polymers derived from renewable feedstock, are promising alternatives to petroleum-based polymers. The crystallization behavior, crystal structure, and supramolecular structures of a series of biobased long-chain aliphatic polyesters, consisting of a diester of 10-undecenoic acid with isosorbide (IS), isomannide (IM), and butanediol (BD) as the midsegments, were studied by various scattering methods and Raman spectroscopy. Polyesters containing butanediol-type midsegments (CBD) participated in the crystallization by being incorporated into the orthorhombic polyethylene crystal lamellae.

Heterogeneous ice nucleation, triggered by surfaces, profoundly impacts climate systems, biological processes, and technological applications. Classical nucleation theory (CNT) predicts that with curvature radii decreasing within 1 order of magnitude of the critical nucleus radius, convex surfaces should suppress nucleation and concave surfaces should promote nucleation; however, such regularity has not been observed explicitly in experiments, and there are even conflicting results. Here, we resolve this long-standing controversy by providing the first experimental evidence about the bidirectional regulation of ice nucleation from both liquid and vapor phases through precisely engineered convex (nanosphere) and concave (nanopore) surfaces.
