One-Step Electrodeposition of Superhydrophobic Coatings on Steel: Influence of Process Parameters [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Steel is inherently susceptible to corrosion due to its hydrophilic nature (water contact angle < 90°). This study developed superhydrophobic coatings (water contact angle > 150°) using a one-step electrodeposition method, a simple and cost-effective ...

Spatially Selective Solvation Chemistry by Local Charge Enrichment for Stable Potassium‐Metal Anodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A MoC/NC functional intermediate medium preferentially interacts with KFSI to reconstruct the interfacial solvation structure and form a KF‐rich inorganic SEI. The synergistic integration of the electronically insulating SEI and MoC/NC suppresses electron tunneling, enables fast and balanced K+/electron transport, and promotes uniform K deposition for ...

Automated Extraction of Multicomponent Alloy Data Using Large Language Models for Sustainable Design

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A large language model (LLM) based pipeline is developed to automatically extract a comprehensive and accurate multicomponent alloy database from literature corpus. The extracted dataset is integrated with sustainability indicators to identify potential alloys that outperform existing industrial benchmark materials in terms of both performance and ...

Phase‐Resolved Dual Control of Phenol Photodissociation at the Air–Water Interface From Structure‐Resolved Statistics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Faster phenol photolysis at the air–water interface arises from two cooperative factors: a more favorable initial microenvironment for solvent‐side electron stabilization, which lowers CI access, and a more labile hydrogen‐bond network, which more readily reorganizes to stabilize the dark‐state intermediate.

Explaining the Origin of Negative Poisson's Ratio in Amorphous Networks With Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how machine learning (ML) breaks the “vicious cycle” in designing auxetic amorphous networks. By transitioning from traditional “black‐box” optimization to an interpretable “AI‐Physics” closed‐loop paradigm, ML is shown to not only discover highly optimized structures—such as all‐convex polygon networks—but also unveil hidden ...

Microwave‐Assisted Alcoholysis of Ethylene–Vinyl Acetate: Phenomenological and Thermal Evolution of EVAOH Terpolymers

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Microwave‐assisted alcoholysis converts EVA into EVAOH terpolymers, promoting a progressive transition from EVA‐like crystallites to VOH‐rich hydrogen‐bonded crystalline domains. Solvent‐controlled swelling influences conversion kinetics, while thermal analysis reveals a sigmoidal increase in melting temperature that a two‐population crystallization ...

Beyond Profit: Do Mergers and Acquisitions and the Board of Directors Increase the Environmental, Social, and Governance?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between mergers and acquisitions (M&A), board characteristics, and ESG performance in BRICS companies, considering the moderating role of sectoral sensitivity. The study analyzes 11,402 observations from 2293 BRICS companies, employing Two‐Stage Least Squares (2SLS) to address endogeneity and logistic ...

Refinement effect of Zirconium and Samarium on Al-4Mg cast alloy

Materials Research Express, 2021
This study aims at investigating the modification response of cast Al-4%Mg alloy to Zirconium or Samarium additions at high and low levels. Thermal analysis was used to evaluate the influence of Zirconium and Samarium. The solidification data represented

Measuring Corporate Alignment With the Circular Economy: a Text‐Based Circularity Index From Mandatory Non‐Financial Disclosures

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) has become a strategic priority for firms, yet empirical assessments of corporate circularity remain fragmented and heavily dependent on structured indicators or self‐reported metrics. This paper proposes a novel, text‐based circularity index derived from mandatory non‐financial statements of large ...
