The possibility of stabilizing different amounts medium-entropy intermetallic compounds (MEIMCs) within a multicomponent matrix using laser cladding is demonstrated. results indicated that MEIMC with B2 structure could be successfully formed BCC during proper ratio Al, Fe, Co, Cu, Mn, and Ni powders. Two coatings contents were fabricated by changing the feeding rate powder mixture. Based on X-r...

Thin clay coatings can be deposited from water dispersions for the purpose of improved gas barrier properties and fire retardancy polymeric materials. Mechanical are difficult to assess, since they very thin (≈1µm). In-situ tests using a micro tensile stage in scanning electron microscope reveal thickness-dependent microcracking mechanism, Weibull parameters coating fracture extracted. Complex ...

background: flat urothelial lesions comprise a spectrum of morphologic changes ranging from reactive atypia to carcinoma in situ (cis). urothelial dysplasia and cis are associated with the recurrence and progression of urothelial carcinoma. distinguishing cis and dysplasia from reactive atypia based on histolopathogical features alone is often difficult. using different immunohistochemical mark...
