Low‐Activation Compositionally Complex Alloys for Advanced Nuclear Applications—A Review
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Low‐activation compositionally complex alloys (LACCAs) are advanced metallic materials primarily composed of low‐activation elements, offering advantages such as rapid compliance with operational standards and safe recyclability. This review highlights their potential for extreme high‐temperature irradiation environments as structural materials for ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study explores aerosol jet‐printed (AJP) surface roughness, its effects on the performance of microwave electronics, and its process contributors. First, an electromagnetic model is vetted for AJP's unique roughness signature. Simulations are built which show process‐induced roughness is as significant as conductor resistivity in driving microwave

Antimicrobial Titanium–Copper Alloys: The Role of Microstructure in Arc‐Melted Compositions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Copper‐containing titanium alloys show promise in combating orthopedic implant infections. This study explores the influence of heat treatment on Ti‐11.5Cu and Ti‐33Cu alloys, revealing that larger Ti2Cu precipitates (≈5 μm) enhance antimicrobial efficacy through increased surface contact. Results suggest contact sterilization is the primary mechanism,

High‐Temperature Oxidation of the CrFeNi Medium‐Entropy Alloy
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The oxidation behavior of equiatomic CrFeNi MEA is a key issue that determines this material's suitability for high‐temperature application. The understanding of long‐term behavior is even more crucial than short‐term corrosion effects. The alloy is exposed to synthetic air at 1000, 1050, and 1100 °C for 24, 100, and 1000 h and systematically compared ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Ultrahigh‐molecular‐weight polyethylene powders (<≈40 μm) with a bulk density of 260 g L−1 are prepared from a silica supported bisimine pyridine iron catalyst. The nascent product is disentangled and can be thermally densified without loss of its low viscosity.

Mesoporous Silica Microspheres by Super‐Fast Alkaline Etching of Micrometer‐Sized Stöber Particles
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Microscale silica particles are prepared along with a modified, scalable Stöber synthesis using the continuous addition of tetraethoxy silane to an ethanolic solution of ammonia with KCl. Etching with hydroxide ions at 95 °C gave porous analogs within minutes. Monodisperse particles are isolable in high yield after precipitation in ethanol.
