The effects of different thermochemical post-processing treatments on the microstructure and properties additively manufactured austenitic stainless steel were investigated. If nitrogen content in as-built condition is high, austenitization vacuum causes a reduction near surface. This can be remedied by applying small amount gas during austenitization. Using high temperature solution nitriding,...

INCONEL@ alloy 625 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy that is used for its high strength, excellent fabricability and weldability, and outstanding corrosion resistance. The outstanding and versatile corrosion resistance of INCONEL alloy 625 under a wide range of temperatures and corrosive environments is the primary reason for its wide acceptance in chemical processing and other applications...

The nickeland iron-aluminide alloys are an important class of materials because of their unique resistance to oxidizing, carburizing, and sulfidizing environments at high temperatures. They also provide an interesting combination of high-temperature strength and wear resistance. Many applications have been identified for these materials including: furnace fixtures, heating elements, pumps, hydr...

We demonstrated the self-assembly of transition metal carbide nanoparticles coated with atomically thin noble metal monolayers by carburizing mixtures of noble metal salts and transition metal oxides encapsulated in removable silica templates. This approach allows for control of the final core-shell architecture, including particle size, monolayer coverage, and heterometallic composition. Carbo...
