Biological assessments of scaffolds in terms of cellular attachment and adipogenic differentiation of mouse adipose derived stem cells (mADSCs) were performed. The results showed that inclusion of LDH nanoparticles reduced the average fiber diameter and enhanced the tensile strength and elongation at break values of the PCL scaffold. The LDH-enriched electrospun PCL scaffolds had remarkable effects on cell adhesion. Moreover, a significant increase in adipogenic differentiation of mADSCs was observed. The PCL/LDH nanofibrous scaffolds showed great potential in application for soft tissue engineering.","PeriodicalId":30992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Materials in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70774017","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}

The results showed that the spinel protection layer not only significantly decreased the area specific resistance (ASR), but also inhibited the subscale growth by acting as a barrier to the inward diffusion of oxygen. ASRs of 19.7 and 32.5 mΩ.cm2, much lower than that of the bare substrate (153.4 mΩ.cm2), at 800 °C after 400 h oxidation were achieved for the bare and pre-oxidized copper ferrite spinel coated samples, respectively. Excellent, stable ASR (20.5 mΩ.cm) was obtained with copper ferrite coating after 600 h of exposure at 800 °C. The high electrical conductivity of CuFe2O4 and its doping by Mn, the growth reduction of Cr2O3 oxide scale and the good coating to substrate adherence are proposed to be responsible for substantial improvement in electrical conductivity.","PeriodicalId":30992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Materials in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49461756","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}

The flexural stress-deflection curves revealed two distinct types of dynamics, serrated and non-serrated flow, related to temperature and strain rate. The serrated flow which appeared at temperatures higher than a critical value or strain rates lower than a critical value, was simultaneously due to activation of shear transformation zones (STZs) and time-dependent structural relaxations. Further results indicated negative and positive values of m at temperatures above and below 0.4 Tg, respectively. The main reason for negative strain rate sensitivity was insufficient time of structural relaxation at high strain rates which lead to generation of free volume inside shear bands making the BMG softer. Comparison of STZ activation energy with activation energy for the onset of serration indicated almost equal values and there was a close relationship between serrated flow and STZ operation.","PeriodicalId":30992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Materials in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70774264","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 regard, tungsten inert gas (TIG) cladding process was carried out using Al 1100 as filler rod with Ar and Ar+N 2 as shielding gases. Phase and structure of the samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Hardness values and corrosion behavior of the obtained coatings were also compared using Vickers microhardness tester and potentiostat, respectively. The results showed that composite structure containing Al 3 Ti, Ti 3 Al 2 N 2 and Ti 3 Al intermetallic compounds could be formed on the surface of pure Ti. Amounts of brittle phases and welding defects at the titanium-coating interface were least by welding under pure Ar shielding. Despite the increasing amount of structural defects such as porosity and non-uniformity under Ar+N 2 shielding, the prepared coatings had higher hardness (more than 100 HV) and corrosion resistance (more than twice) compared with those obtained under Ar shielding.","PeriodicalId":30992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Materials in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70774323","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}
