Influence of Surface Finish on the Tribological Performance of AlTiBN Coatings Deposited on Forming Tools

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Aluminum and nitride coatings are used in industry because they are hard, resist wear, and protect against oxidation. Adding boron can improve friction behavior and other properties. This study tests coatings on surfaces with different finishes. Results show smoother surfaces perform better, while rough ones wear faster, although coatings can reduce ...

Factors Limiting the Apparent Hydrogen Flux in Asymmetric Tubular Cercer Membranes Based on La₂₇W_3.5Mo_1.5O_55.5−δ and La_0.87Sr_0.13CrO_3−δ

Membranes, 2019
Asymmetric tubular ceramic−ceramic (cercer) membranes based on La27W3.5Mo1.5O55.5−δ-La0.87Sr0.13CrO3−δ were fabricated by a two-step firing method making use of water-based extrusion and dip-coating.

Combustion synthesized indium-tin-oxide (ITO) thin film for source/drain electrodes in all solution-processed oxide thin-film transistors [PDF]

, 2016
We report combustion solution synthesized (SCS) indium-tin-oxide (ITO) thin film, which is a well-known transparent conductive oxide, for source/drain (S/D) electrodes in solution-processed amorphous zirconium-indium-zinc-oxide (ZIZO) TFT.

Semi-empirical approach to characterize thin water film behaviour in relation to droplet splashing in modelling aircraft icing [PDF]

, 2012
Modelling the ice accretion in glaze regime for the supercooled large droplets is one of the most challenging problems in the aircraft icing field. The difficulties are related to the presence of the liquid water film on the surface in the glaze regime ...

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...
