Article Abstract
This study systematically investigated the effects of the addition of the rare earth element yttrium (Y) on the microstructural evolution, mechanical properties, and corrosion behavior of as-extruded Al-5.6Zn-2.5Mg-1.6Cu-0.20Cr (wt.%) alloy through comprehensive characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), tensile testing, corrosion analysis, and electron microscopy. Microstructural characterization demonstrated that the incorporation of yttrium resulted in significant refinement of secondary phase particles within the as-extruded alloy matrix. Moreover, quantitative analysis revealed a substantial increase in low-angle grain boundary (LAGB) density, dislocation density, and the formation of subgrain structures. Notably, the volume fraction of η' strengthening precipitates showed a marked increase, accompanied by a corresponding reduction in the width of precipitate-free zones (PFZs) along grain boundaries. Following the T74 aging treatment, the alloy with 0.1 wt.% yttrium addition exhibited a remarkable improvement in intergranular corrosion resistance, with the maximum corrosion depth reduced to 107.8 μm. However, it should be noted that the exfoliation corrosion resistance exhibited an inverse correlation with increasing yttrium content, suggesting a concentration-dependent behavior in corrosion performance.

Biofouling often occurs simultaneously with fogging, presenting significant challenges to visibility, safety, and operational efficiency. The development of biocompatible coatings that offer both antifouling performance and stability under fogging conditions is highly sought after. A method to form multifunctional coatings is presented, utilizing a zwitterionic nanocellulose composite material that demonstrates both antifogging and antifouling properties, suitable for application on various surfaces.

We present a novel, flexible framework for electronic structure interfaces designed for nonadiabatic dynamics simulations, implemented in Python 3 using concepts of object-oriented programming. This framework streamlines the development of new interfaces by providing a reusable and extendable code base. It supports the computation of energies, gradients, various couplings─like spin-orbit couplings, nonadiabatic couplings, and transition dipole moments─and other properties for an arbitrary number of states with any multiplicities and charges.

Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO) is a semiconductor with multiferroic properties, synthesized by the sol-gel method. While static high-pressure studies have advanced our understanding of the phase behavior of BiFeO, the effects of dynamic pressure acoustic shock waves remain unexplored. In this study, BiFeO was subjected to 100 shock pulses with 0.

Infected wound treatment remains a critical challenge in clinical medicine. Although existing treatments, like local debridement, antimicrobial agents, and growth factor therapies, have demonstrated certain therapeutic effects, they primarily target only specific stages of wound healing. Moreover, the escalating issue of antibiotic resistance limits their efficacy.
