Duplex Stainless Steel Laser‐Surface Textured: Stability in Brine Solution
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Controlled laser‐surface treatment (LST) of duplex DSS2205 steel is performed to increase its stability in brine solution under cyclic electrochemical assays. The superior protection with respect to flat and smooth panels is attributed to the presence of FeCr2O4 as the main protective oxide layer in the LST surface, after corrosion tests. The stability

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines how several molten high‐silicon electrical steels interact with both conventional and recycled MgO–C refractories. For this, various immersion experiments are conducted. In addition to infiltration, a number of mechanisms are identified and explained that control the corrosion of the refractory material.

Shrinkage and Other Corn-Quality Changes From Drying at Commercial Elevators [PDF]
, 1984 Weight losses and corn-quality changes from drying and handling were measured at two modern country elevators. In addition to moisture losses, material handing losses averaged 0.88% of initial weight, with a range of 0.64% to 1.33% of initial weight ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

Kinetics of Moisture Sorption and Reverse Bias Degradation in Chip Tantalum Capacitors [PDF]
Exposure of chip MnO2 tantalum capacitors to humid environments might result in increased ESR, leakage currents, and first turn-on failures. However, there is a lack of literature data on the effect of moisture on reverse bias behavior of the parts.
