In this work, a structurally revivable, chloride-ion conducting solid electrolyte (SE), CsSn0.9In0.067Cl3, with high ionic conductivity of 3.45 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 25 °C is investigated. The impedance spectroscopy, density functional theory, solid-state 35Cl NMR, and electron paramagnetic resonance studies collectively reveal that the Cl− mobility originates in flexibility structural building bloc...

Polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) are ideal additives to enhance the mechanical properties and functionality of a polymer matrix can even potentially serve as single-component building blocks for highly filled composites if content is kept low. The major challenge facing such syntheses that PGNP-based solids with short brushes often have low strength limited processability. It therefore rem...

The formation of hybrid materials through the combination chemically versatile, functional metal-organic framework (MOF) family is proposed, with ubiquitous, low cost and durable inorganic glasses. blends composites hence created may serve to minimise, eventually solve cost, durability processability issues MOFs, whilst retaining their valuable properties.

Abstract Laser directed energy deposition (L-DED) was used to produce samples of the newly patented W360 hot work tool steel by Böhler. The process parameters were optimized obtain nearly fully dense through production and analysis single deposited tracks layers. Subsequently, bulk underwent a hardening heat treatment, consisting austenitizing, air quenching, tempering. analysed in as-built con...

The impact of moisture on flowability and spreadability is discussed. More notably we also present research the built nickel-base material. One lot a newly opened Hastelloy X (HX) L?PBF powder was split into two equal batches. batch moisturized using programmable climate chamber, other untreated. We bars with both batches for mechanical testing, in an EOS M100, cold build plate. content batches...

Understanding the laser-powder interaction during laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) of composite systems is vital in producing robust parts. The currently existing mechanically mixed powders are unable to meet requirements an ideal for LPBF process, even if metallic particles remain highly spherical with a second constituent attached them. It was found that presence reinforcing agent (i.e., B4C) o...
