The relationship between surface roughness and degradation behavior in magnesium (Mg) biomaterials is still a controversial issue. This study aims to clarify the relationship between surface roughness and corrosion rate of pure Mg. Pure Mg samples with surface roughness values (Ra) of 0.59, 2.68, and 9.12 μm were cast using an indirect solid-free form fabrication method. The in vitro corrosion behavior was evaluated using hydrogen evolution, mass loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It was confirmed that surface roughness had a significant influence on the corrosion rate of pure Mg, with increasing roughness resulting in an accelerated corrosion rate. However, pitting corrosion was not observed, suggesting that surface roughness does not affect the pitting potential of Mg.

In the current investigation, the efficiency inhibition of two newly synthesized bi-pyrazole derivatives, namely 2,3-bis[(bis((1 H-pyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amino)] pyridine (Tetra-Pz-Ortho) and 1,4-bis[(bis((1 H-pyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amino)] benzene (Tetra-Pz-Para) for corrosion of carbon steel (C&S) in 1 M HCl medium was evaluated. A Comparative study of inhibitor effect of Tetra-Pz-Ortho and Tetra-Pz-Para was conducted first using weight loss method and EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) and PDP (Potentiodynamic Polarisation) techniques. Tetra-Pz-Ortho and Tetra-Pz-Para had a maximum inhibition efficacy of 97.

Direct force measurements by atomic force microscopy (AFM) have become an indispensable analytical tool in the last decades. Force measurements have been widely used for adhesion measurements, often in combination with the colloidal probe technique. For the latter technique, a colloidal particle is attached to the end of an AFM cantilever, proving great flexibility in terms of colloid/surface interaction to be studied.

A comprehensive study was conducted to determine the effects of water and ethylene glycol (EG) on biomass pretreatment using a binary deep eutectic solvent (DES) containing choline chloride and acetic acid (1ChCl3AC) at a mole ratio of 1:3. Different quantities of water and EG were combined with 1ChCl3AC to pretreat wheat straw, miscanthus, eucalyptus, and sorghum stalk at 130 °C for 6 h. The changes in nanopore structure and surface roughness of wet biomass, as well as biomass crystallinity after 1ChCl3AC-based pretreatment were investigated using XRD and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).

Quantum dot (QD) light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) are promising candidates for next-generation displays because of their high efficiency, brightness, broad color gamut, and solution-processability. Large-scale solution-processing of electroluminescent QLEDs poses significant challenges, particularly concerning the precise control of the active layer's thickness and uniformity. These obstacles directly impact charge transport, leading to current leakage and reduced overall efficiency.
