Dual‐Array Nano Configuration for High‐Performance Metastable β Titanium Alloys
This work resolves a fundamental paradox in metastable alloys by establishing a novel dislocation‐phase coupling mechanism, enabling dynamic microstructure control for simultaneous thermal stability and deformability. Geometrically ordered α‐nanograins achieve unprecedented 500°C strength‐ductility synergy (863 MPa UTS, 78.3% elongation).

A MXene‐based actuator with gradient thickness is fabricated by a novel and simple vacuum‐assisted “tilt‐filtration” approach. The actuator exhibits a “diode‐like” controllable unidirectional deformation behavior under moisture gradient, and its deformation direction is strictly correlated to its thickness gradient direction and moisture source ...
