Such compound materials, like the Janus or core–shell configurations, create opportunities for relevant applications because they offer diverse combinations of complex impinging materials and complex surfaces. However, previous studies have only assumed spherical configurations, or focused on the bouncing dynamics, without considering the effect of the material size. The current work numerically studies the dynamic characteristics of Janus materials with ellipsoidal shapes for various impact speeds and viscosity ratios, to analyze the effect of the size and shape of the material on bouncing and separation behavior. The threshold Weber numbers at which separation starts after the collision are investigated as a function of the droplet size, ellipticity, and viscosity ratio. In addition, a regime map of the separation efficiency of the Janus droplets is established under various viscosity ratios and Weber numbers to investigate the effects of droplet shape on the asymmetric bouncing and separation behavior. It is found that the separation efficiency and mechanism of two prolate spheroids are different from each other at the same ellipticity. This study will provide an efficient strategy to control the bouncing of compound materials in applications, such as drug delivery, liquid purification, and bio- or multi-material printing.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47626998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The MA powder exhibited an orthorhombic Cu3SbSe3 phase, which remained even after HP. However, secondary phases of permingeatite (Cu3SbSe4) and berzelianite (Cu1.78Se) were also identified in the X-ray diffraction patterns.

Dense compacts with a relative density higher than 99% were obtained at HP temperatures above 573 K. Microstructural and elemental analyses confirmed the presence of the secondary phase Cu3 SbSe4 in the matrix of Cu3SbSe3 . However, the Cu1.78Se phase could not be observed. All specimens exhibited an electrical conductivity of (0.66–1.06) × 10 3 Sm-1, a Seebeck coefficient of 324–376 µVK-1, and a power factor of 0.09–0.11 mWm-1K-2 at 623 K. The thermal conductivity was lower than 0.7 Wm-1K-1 in the measured temperature range, mainly due to the phonon scattering caused by the lone-pair electrons of Sb. A dip in thermal conductivity was observed at 423 K, which was possibly caused by the order-disorder transition of bytizite.

Under typical laser surface melting conditions (scan speed: 50 mm/s, heat input: 40 J/mm), severe solidification cracking phenomena occurs. The key metallurgical factors of solidification cracking have been identified as solidification segregation-assisted pipeline diffusion behavior at the solidification grain boundary, and in the randomly formed polycrystalline melting zone microstructure. In addition, under extremely low heat input and high-speed laser beam scan conditions (scan speed: 1000 mm/s, heat input: 2 J/mm), an effective surface melting zone can be obtained within a single directionally solidified grain under a relatively high-energy beam density (65 J/mm2) using the characteristics of single-mode fiber lasers. Results reveal that the laser melting zone successfully shows a 99.9% epitaxial growth achievement ratio. Because of the superior epitaxial growth ratio within the laser surface melting zone, and the rapid solidification phenomena, formation of a solidification grain boundary and solidification segregation-assisted pipeline diffusion behavior can be suppressed. Finally, a solidification crack-free laser melting zone can thus be achieved.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48467717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among several eco-friendly energy sources, polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells have been increasingly investigated since they have zero emissions, high energy density, and high energy efficiency. Carbon-supported Pt catalyst is generally used for the cathodic catalyst in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. However, Pt/C catalysts corrode under start-up/shut-down conditions. Pt agglomeration, separation, and loss can occur due to the carbon corrosion, which results in a rapid performance loss. Metal oxide is a promising candidate as an alternative support since it shows high stability in the high potential. Of several metal oxides, titanium oxides and tin oxides have been widely investigated. Their performance is comparable to the Pt/C catalyst, and they have shown even higher durability than the Pt/C catalyst in accelerated stress tests simulating start-up/shut-down conditions. In this paper, we summarize the development of metal oxide supports for the Pt catalyst in the five most recent years. In recent studies, the characteristics of metal oxides have been varied using new synthesis methods, annealing temperature, precursors, and dopants, which results in enhanced ORR activity and durability. Advanced metal oxides have shown high durability and exhibited acceptable performance compared to the state-of-the-art Pt/C catalysts.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48148184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, newly-suggested Al and Al-3%Ti coatings were deposited on high strength low alloyed steel substrate using twin wire arc spraying (TWAS). The static and dynamic friction coefficients of the Al-based coatings under dry and wet conditions were measured using portable friction testers. To evaluate the corrosion behavior under sea water conditions, a cyclic potentiodynamic polarization test (CPDP) and salt solution immersion test (SSIT) were performed with a 3.5% NaCl solution. To confirm the coating degradation, mechanical properties (Vickers hardness and adhesion strength) were compared before and after SSIT. The results showed that the TWAS Al-based coatings were well fabricated on HSLA steel and had the general microstructure of a thermal spray. The coatings provided excellent corrosion protection for the steel substrate and greatly increased the friction coefficient of the surface. The Vickers hardness slightly increased and adhesion strength decreased after SSIT. The microstructure observation revealed that the TWAS coatings had a bimodal structure induced by non-uniform droplet generation at the TWAS tips. After SSIT, some oxides formed on the surface and porous regions of the coatings. This indicated that the TWAS coating successfully provided corrosion protection and non-skid properties.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47798645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The parameters of creep life prediction models were derived using the Larson-Miller (LM), Manson-Haferd (MH), and Orr-Sherby-Dorn (OSD) models, to use as mechanical properties under a virtual severe accident condition like station black out (SBO). The yield strength (YS) and creep property of Alloy 690 were compared with those of Alloy 600, and the effects of the precipitation behavior of Cr carbides on creep properties were analyzed. The YS of Alloy 600 decreased rapidly above the temperature of 750°C, but the YS of Alloy 690 decreased linearly up to the temperature of 850°C because of the formation of M23C6 carbides. The creep stress exponent (n) of Alloy 690 was between 5 and 6, and this indicated that dislocation creep was the major creep mechanism at the test temperatures. The results of creep tests were well matched with the LM, MH, and OSD models for Alloy 690, and there were no significant differences in accuracy between the models. The stress-rupture test results of Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 using the LM model showed that the decrease in creep strength with rupture time of Alloy 690 was steeper than that of Alloy 600 at high temperatures. This indicated that Alloy 690 was more susceptible to creep degradation under longterm creep conditions. The precipitation of Cr carbides in Alloy 690 increased YS, benefitting creep properties for short-term creep. However, the Cr carbides coarsened significantly under loading conditions at high temperature, and this deteriorated the creep properties for long-term creep.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41486444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various slag terms have been used depending on the location and characteristics, but it is necessary to use terms that have exact meaning and unity. Although many scientific analyses have been supplemented by archaeological theses, the iron-making trends of each period have not yet been systematically proven. This study reviewed the type of iron-making process used for 100 ancient slags. The slags were analyzed by XRF, revealing when it was formed and some of the detailed processes. XRD analysis was used to define and classify Tap slag, Bloom slag, and Ceramic-rich slag as relative concepts. From the Three Kingdoms Period to the Joseon Dynasty, the amount of temperature variation in the iron-making furnace decreased and the GAS reaction became uniform. It was observed that the amount of iron oxide remaining decreased and the proportion of ceramic-rich slag increased. The change in iron oxide content kept decreasing while the levels of refining, smelting, and melting were maintained, in that order.

Herein, NiZnS photocatalysts were synthesized with a hydrothermal method at various sulfur contents. The ZnS material is widely used as a photocatalyst because of its high stability, low toxicity, and excellent charge separation characteristics. Nickel is considered a co-component in the ZnS base to improve hydrogen evolution efficiency, because nickel sulfide has a narrow band gap. Field emission scanning electron microscopy analysis was used to observe particle size and shape. As the sulfur ratio increased, the particle size increased, and relatively uniform particle sizes were obtained at the 2:2 molar ratio of NiZn:S. X-ray diffractometer analysis showed the formation of ZnO crystals at low sulfur contents in the NiZnS photocatalysts. Among the various NiZnS compositions, the NiZn:S ratio of 2:2 resulted in the highest hydrogen production rate (1541.5 μmol/g/h) with stable reproducibility. UV-vis spectroscopy was used to analyze light absorbance, and the band gap changed with different sulfur contents due to the oxygen vacancies in ZnO, as identified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscope. High amounts of thiourea used to introduce the sulfur increased the particle sizes and blocked sunlight coming to NiZnS surfaces, thereby degrading photocatalytic performance. Therefore, changing the sulfur content when fabricating the NiZnS composite photocatalysts affected the crystalline structures and band characteristics of the materials, and it finally resulted in improved light absorption, charge separation, and the hydrogen production rate of the photocatalysts.","PeriodicalId":17894,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Metals and Materials","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49548514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
