Bogno, A.-A., Valloton, J., Jimenez, D.D., Rappaz, M., Henein, H.
Near eutectic Al-Cu droplets were rapidly solidified by Impulse Atomization. A wide range of microstructural scales was obtained at different cooling rates and undercoolings. The micrographs of the investigated samples revealed two distinct zones of different structural morphologies: An undulated...

Valloton, J., Bogno, A.-A., Henein, H., Herlach, D.M., Sediako, D.
This paper reports on the undercooling and growth morphology of Al-4.5wt%Cu and Al-4.5wt%Cu-0.4wt%Sc with a focus on the effect of Sc addition. It is found that the addition of Sc reduces the undercoolings of both primary phase and eutectic. In addition, the morphology of the Al-4.5wt%Cu-0.4wt%Sc...

Guo, Zhenjiang, Liu, Yawei, Lohse, Detlef, Zhang, Xuehua, Zhang, Xianren
We numerically study different forms of nanoscale gaseous domains on a model for rough surfaces. Our calculations based on the constrained lattice density functional theory show that the inter-connectivity of pores surrounded by neighboring nanoposts, which model the surface roughness, leads to...

State-of-the-art iridium-based catalysts for acidic water electrolysis: a minireview of wet-chemistry synthesis methods
Download2020-09-30
Himanshi Dhawan, Natalia Semagina, Marc Secanell
With the increasing demand for clean hydrogen production, both as a fuel and an indispensable reagent for chemical industries, acidic water electrolysis has attracted considerable attention in academic and industrial research. Iridium is a well-accepted active and corrosion-resistant component of...

Forbes, J. F., Law, G. K., Weiss, A. D., Scheuerman, A., McGann, L. E., Elliott, J. A., Jomha, N. M.
Long-term biologic storage of articular cartilage has proven elusive due to cellular degradation over time or acute damage during attempts at cryopreservation. Vitrification is one option that may result in successful cryopreservation but difficulty with cryoprotective agent (CPA) toxicity at...

Wiskel, J.B., Ma, J., Valloton, J., Ivey, D.G., Henein, H.
Strain aging of microalloyed steel pipe can occur at the relatively low temperatures associated with the pipe coating process and/or during long term storage. A Box-Behnken statistical design is used to determine the significant strain aging variables that affect the longitudinal yield strength...

Study of electrical conductivity response upon formation of ice and gas hydrates from salt solutions by a second generation high pressure electrical conductivity probe
Download2014-11-01
Sowa, Barbara, Zhang, Xuehua, Kozielski, Karen A., Dunstan, Dave E., Hartley, Patrick G., Maeda, Nobuo
We recently reported the development of a high pressure electrical conductivity probe (HP-ECP) for experimental studies of formation of gas hydrates from electrolytes. The onset of the formation of methane-propane mixed gas hydrate from salt solutions was marked by a temporary upward spike in the...
