This review summarizes the available experimental results showing enhancements in strength and ductility in a range of UFG metals after several different SPD processing procedures.
Results for "plastic"
Highlights of the MRS Fall Meeting 2016, Boston
Society is at a crossroads with many topics such as sustainability, energy, medicine, and healthcare. Material science offers many solutions to these problems.
A Nanoindentation Approach for the Extraction of Flow Curves
This study aims to provide evidence that a multiple sharp tip approach can be used to extract the stress/strain behavior of metals independent of their microstructure.
NanoSPD7 in Sydney 2017
The International NanoSPD Steering Committee and the Local Organising Committee invite you to attend NanoSPD7 to be held in Sydney on 2–7 July 2017.
Exfoliation of Graphene in Volatile Solvents Using Aromatic Surfactants
A multidisciplinary group led by Andrea Liscio at CNR, Bolgna, Italy, has reported that adding aromatic surfactants promotes the exfoliation of few-layers graphene nanosheets in low-boiling organic solvents.
An ab initio Study of Carbon-Induced Ordering in Iron-Based Alloys
The energetic consequences of having iron, manganese or aluminum atoms sit at certain positions close to carbon are studied by performing first-principles quantum-chemical calculations.
Towards High Gas Barrier Thin Films – A Simple and Eco-Friendly Process
Reaearchers from Texas A&M demonstrate a process to apply a super gas barrier to plastic packaging films using only polymers in a water-based solution
The Colorful Hand Print – Made by an Optical Strain Sensor
In a recent study published in Advanced Optical Materials, researchers make use of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) to develop optical strain sensors.
Core–Shell Hollow Fibers, Porous Fibers, and Thin Films from PMMA/PAN
Recently, a joint team demonstrated a comprehensive investigation focusing on the change of physical/chemical properties based on different morphologies.
Optimizing bulk metallic glasses for robust, highly wear-resistant gears
New copper-zirconium-based BMGs are developed that show excellent potential for wear-resistance.
