The metal oxide and silicone oil were confined in BC before being physically mixed with PDMS at different percentages. The results showed that the confined TiO2-BC increased the relative permittivity and at the same time maintained the softness of the PDMS films to some extent. In addition to that, by adding confined silicone oil-BC into the PDMS films, this PDMS based dielectric elastomer (DE) becomes even softer.","PeriodicalId":21754,"journal":{"name":"Solid State Phenomena","volume":"934 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139835383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, pure Al and a mixture of multi-ceramic Al-15SiC-15Al2O3 coatings were successfully deposited on Al-based substrate. The quality of the deposited clads was evaluated according to macro-graphic, microstructure, and microhardness characteristics. The microscopic inspection of the multi-ceramic coatings showed a slight dilution of SiC particles. Also, XRD investigation revealed a formation of Al4C3 carbide. Besides SiC and Al2O3 hard phases, this yielded an increase in matrix microhardness about 180% (from 75 to 212 Hv0.05) as compared to pure Al clads, indicating a great improvement in the mechanical properties of the composite cladded coating.","PeriodicalId":21754,"journal":{"name":"Solid State Phenomena","volume":"83 23","pages":"69 - 78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138954419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this particular study, different age classes of M. moribidii based on their body widths that classified as Class I (3 – 5 mm), Class II (6 – 8 mm), and Class III (9 – 11 mm) were employed in the biosynthesis of AuNPs. The use of different age classes of M. moribidii for the biosynthesis of AuNPs is a fascinating approach that takes advantage of the varying metabolic activities of the different age groups. The colour changes of the solution from yellow to red ruby is the initial observation for the successful biosynthesis of AuNPs where AuNPs_II shows the fastest changes of colour after 2 h incubation and maintains stable for over 1 month of storage. Further confirmation was depicted from the existence of surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption peaks in a range of 545 – 552 nm from UV-Vis spectroscopy. TEM analysis shows the formation of spherical-like shape of biosynthesis AuNPs with average particle size around 42 – 57 nm where AuNPs_II had the smaller particle size. Lastly, the antibacterial assessment of biosynthesized produced from different age classes of M. moribidii had good antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria, but poor activity against Gram-positive bacteria. AuNPs produced from Class II M. moribidii (AuNPs_II) provide the highest ZOI value of 13 mm. The utilization of different age classes of M. moribidii for the biosynthesis of metal nanoparticles is an interesting pathway for designing a novel method that can be considered nature-friendly, safe, and hopeful for the future.","PeriodicalId":21754,"journal":{"name":"Solid State Phenomena","volume":"29 12","pages":"129 - 135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, we found that high-quality diamond films can be deposited on the surface of stainless-steel X5CrNi 18-10 by drilling multiple regularly arranged pits without interlayers or seeding. The following two hypotheses (A) and (B) can be considered as the reason why a high-quality diamond film can be deposited: (A) unoxidized Cr and Ni exposed to the stainless-steel X5CrNi 18-10 surface prevent carbon diffusion into interior of the stainless-steel, resulting diamond core generation, (B) Surface geometry with regular roughness contributes to stress relaxation and delamination prevention. In the present study, those hypotheses have been examined by quantum chemistry calculation and experimental. For the quantum chemistry calculation, energy barrier and kinetic energy for a carbon atom intrudes into a model cluster has been calculated with an ab-initio computational chemistry software package, Gaussian. The calculation result has supported hypothesis (A).
