Impact of Waste‐Derived Slate Dust on Structural, Thermal, and Thermomechanical Behavior of Recycled Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate)

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 20, Page 18206-18221, 20 October 2026.
This study investigates the use of waste slate dust as a filler in recycled PET. Incorporating up to 20 wt% slate dust caused no filler‐induced molecular degradation, increased the crystallization temperature, thermal conductivity, and storage modulus. ABSTRACT Recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) is widely considered a sustainable alternative to

Enhancing tribological properties of pump shafts through shot peening: a study of surface roughness, hardness and performance comparison with heat treatment

Materials Research Express
This research employed Shot Peening (SP) to enhance the tribological behavior of the En-31 pump shaft material. The study compared the effects of varying peening pressures (2.5, 3, 3.5, and 5 bar) and shot sizes (S110 and S230) on surface roughness ...

Cooling Holes in Polymer Spur Gears: A Critical Analysis of Heat Dissipation Benefits and Mesh Stiffness Penalties

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 38, October 10, 2026.
Cooling holes provide a simple passive cooling strategy for polymer spur gears, reducing maximum operating temperature by up to 9.39% while introducing a measurable gear mesh stiffness penalty. A validated response‐surface model reveals how hole size and location govern this thermal–mechanical trade‐off, enabling design optimization for thermally and ...

Superlubricity and Corrosion Inhibition Properties of Solvate Ionic Liquids in Hybrid Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic–Steel Interfaces

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 19, 7 October 2026.
Solvate ionic liquids lubrication reduced the coefficient of friction by ∼60% compared to dry sliding, reaching steady‐state values as low as 0.04–0.05. Corrosion weight‐loss measurements in 1 M HCl further demonstrated significant inhibition behavior, with only 100 ppm of [Li(G3)][TFSI] (∼68.5 μL/L) reducing corrosion‐product weight loss by 63 ...

Effect of Cu and CuP Additions on the Microstructure and Nanoindentation‐Based Fracture Behavior of CoNiAlSi Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 19, 7 October 2026.
Cu and combined Cu–P microalloying refine the microstructure and enhance the nanoindentation‐derived fracture resistance of CoNiAlSi ferromagnetic shape memory alloys without suppressing the martensitic transformation. Comparative SEM, DSC, and nanoindentation results reveal that the CuP‐containing alloy provides the most balanced response, achieving ...
