Microbiologically influenced corrosion in aluminium alloys and premier techniques for comprehensive identification and characterization across diverse metal types

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 1143-1158, June 2025.
Abstract Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is acknowledged as a significant type of corrosion due to its extensive impact on metal/alloy surfaces. As MIC accounts for 20% of all corrosion instances, it is a critical factor causing service failure of engineering materials such as steel and aluminium alloy.

Block Copolymer Boronic Ester Vitrimers: Balancing Self‐Healing and Creep Through Self‐Assembly

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 11, Page 2391-2404, 1 June 2025.
ABSTRACT Vitrimers offer notable advantages such as enhanced recyclability and self‐healing, but their susceptibility to creep remains a barrier to their widescale adoption. Here, we incorporated hard‐soft AB block copolymers into dynamic networks.

Experimental Investigation on Mode I/II/III Fracture Behaviour of Additively Manufactured PLA Materials: Effects of Build Orientation

open access: yesStrain, Volume 61, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is a bio‐based material that can potentially replace environmentally harmful petroleum‐based polymers in engineering applications due to its high strength. The fused filament fabrication (FFF) additive manufacturing (AM) technique has recently been widely used to manufacture PLA‐based components.
