Under certain processing conditions, improving the microstructure of aluminum and understanding its relationship with surface roughness requires systematic study. The grain structure and various types of second-phase particles are of paramount importance. This study analyzed the microstructure of 6061 alloy after undergoing severe plastic deformation under various processing conditions followed by T6 homogenization heat treatment. Utilizing a white light interferometer, a comparative analysis of the surface roughness was conducted on specimens that underwent single-point diamond turning to achieve a mirror finish. The assessment of surface roughness on machined surfaces is solely based on white light interferometry. The analysis and discussion focus on the effects of phases (causing scratches and voids), the grains and grain boundaries. Experimental findings signify: the grain size, grain boundary and residual second phase can both influence the surface quality, the increase in deformation temperature and accumulated strain both facilitate the dissolution and fragmentation of the secondary phases. However, they also contribute to some extent to grain growth, resulting in a minimum secondary phase area fraction of 0.87% and grain sizes reaching 147.8 μm. Subsequent heat treatments, while effective in reducing the negative impact of the phases, reveal noticeable step-like structures affecting the quality of surface roughness, with the lowest obtained Ra value being 0.8 nm. A proposed pretreatment method in cleaner ingot processing with lower alloy element content addresses the trade-off between reducing phases and controlling grain growth, aiming to achieve improved surface roughness, promoting the application of polycrystalline aluminum alloys in the field of optics manufacturing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":18322,"journal":{"name":"Materials Today Sustainability","volume":"28 ","pages":"Article 100959"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142096406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Simultaneously, the disposal of sugarcane bagasse ash is rising, causing significant environmental pollution. Using bagasse ash as a partial substitute for cement in concrete presents a promising solution to both issues, by reducing cement usage and mitigating disposal problems. Currently existing studies focussed on the influence of usage of bagasse ash in binary blended concrete, however a comprehensive review on the utilization of bagasse ash in binary, ternary, and quaternary blended concrete is highly limited. Therefore, this study provides a systematic review of the synergistic use of bagasse ash with other potential supplementary materials to produce bagasse ash-based binary, ternary, and quaternary blended concrete. This study not only offers solution to global environmental challenges buts also promotes the use of alternative materials in concrete production worldwide. The study evaluates the fresh, mechanical, and durability properties of bagasse ash blended binary, ternary, and quaternary concretes. Results indicate that binary concrete with bagasse ash demonstrates a 10%–20% increase in compressive strength compared to reference concrete at an optimal replacement level of 20%. In ternary and quaternary blends, cement can be replaced by up to 40% without compromising strength. Notably, ternary blends incorporating bagasse ash with materials such as palm oil fuel ash or rice husk ash exhibit enhanced strength and durability properties. The addition of bagasse ash in binary, ternary, and quaternary blended concrete reduces workability of blended concretes but enhances resistance against chloride ion penetration, air permeability, and water permeability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":18322,"journal":{"name":"Materials Today Sustainability","volume":"28 ","pages":"Article 100954"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142096405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, tungsten oxynitride decorated nitrogen-doped graphene (WON-NG) is synthesized by a facile one-pot strategy in a particle-sheet hybrid nanostructure. The nanocomposite is grown directly on a nickel foam (NF) as the current collector through the synthesis process. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and TEM images have confirmed the particle-sheet hybrid nanostructure of the prepared nanocomposite with tungsten oxynitride nanoparticles and nitrogen-doped graphene nanosheet. The oxygen and nitrogen-based redox groups, which synergistically coexist in the hybrid network, inherently cooperate in the electrochemical activities of the nanocomposite. The electrochemical measurements show that the WON-NG|NF electrode can deliver a superior specific capacitance of 1079.4 F g⁻¹ (4.6 F cm⁻²) at 1 A g⁻¹ in 1 M KOH aqueous electrolyte. In-depth investigations suggest that the diffusive-controlled process governs the charge storage mechanism at all scan rates in the composite for the advantageous porous morphology.

Herein, the impact of Rb-doping in CsSnI₃ perovskite has been thoroughly investigated on its structural, electrical, and optical properties via DFT studies. The results show that the incorporation of Rb-cation into CsSnI₃ significantly enhances the stability of the perovskite active layer (PAL), addressing the major challenge of degradation under environmental conditions. Further, DFT results are used to investigate the potential of Cs_0.75Rb_0.25SnI₃ as a PAL in device architecture FTO/ETL/Cs_0.75Rb_0.25SnI₃/CNTs/C via SCAPS-1D with different electron transport layer (ETL) and carbon-based hole transport layer and back contact.

The process involves extruding shredded LDPE pouches into continuous filaments using a modified thermal extruder. The research comprehensively investigates the effects of two key extrusion parameters, nozzle temperature and screw speed, on the resulting filament's physical and mechanical properties. Characterisation efforts include dimensional analysis, morphological evaluation, chemical integrity assessment, thermal stability analysis, and tensile testing.

The filaments are chemically intact, thermally stable, and have high toughness across the range of extrusion parameters. The results and a preliminary demonstration of 3D printing indicate that the LDPE waste can be effectively transformed into consistent filaments that have the potential for 3D printing. A carbon footprint assessment underscores the environmental benefits of this approach, showing substantial reductions in estimated CO₂ emissions compared to conventional filament production methods.
