Analyzing the Influence of Titanium Content in 5087 Aluminum Filler Wires on Metal Inert Gas Welding Joints of AA5083 Alloy.

As the demand for lightweight structures in the transportation industry continues to rise, AA5083 aluminum alloy has become increasingly prominent due to its superior corrosion resistance and weldability. To facilitate the production of high-quality, intricate AA5083 components, 5087 aluminum filler wire is commonly utilized in metal inert gas (MIG) welding processes for industrial applications. The optimization of filler wire composition is critical to enhancing the mechanical properties of AA5083 MIG-welded joints.

A facile synthesis of high entropy alloy nanoparticle-activated carbon nanocomposites for synergetic degradation of methylene blue.

Nanocomposites of CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy nanoparticle-activated carbon (HEA NPs-AC) were prepared by a facile and controllable impregnation-adsorption method. The HEA NPs-AC showed excellent catalytic performance in the degradation of methylene blue (MB) without any peroxide addition. Besides, their reaction rate is also competitive among single-element and other catalysts.

Dislocation Strengthening without Ductility Trade-off in Metastable Austenitic Steels.

Strength and ductility are mutually exclusive if they are manifested as consequence of the coupling between strengthening and toughening mechanisms. One notable example is dislocation strengthening in metals, which invariably leads to reduced ductility. However, this trend is averted in metastable austenitic steels.
