Cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CCM) alloys possess high corrosion-resistant properties as well as good mechanical properties. Hence, the alloys are employed in medical implants such as artificial knee and hip joints, coronary stents, and removable partial dentures. To improve the biocompatibility of CCM alloys, we reported that CCM-binding peptide (CBP) linked to cell-adhesive motif Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) improved the attachment of endothelial cells on CCM alloys. However, the stability of CBP adsorption on the alloy and its effect on osteoblast compatibility are still unclear. In this study, we evaluated the stabilization of the adsorption layer of CBP-RGD on CCM alloy surface and investigated the effect of CBP-RGD peptide on the proliferation and differentiation of the osteoblasts. CBP-RGD layer exhibited higher stabilization than the RGD adsorption layer for 7 days. In addition, the proliferation of osteoblast on CBP-RGD adsorbed alloy higher than that on RGD adsorbed alloy. Moreover, the calcification of cells cultured on the CBP-RGD adsorbed alloy was significantly higher than that of the cells on RGD adsorbed alloy. These findings indicate that the CBP binding was stable during the culture of osteoblasts on the CCM alloy.

Recycling waste salt in the dry reprocessing of nuclear fuel and reducing electric energy consumption in the electrorefining process are crucial steps toward addressing significant challenges in this field. The present study proposes a novel approach to purify waste salt by selectively adsorbing excessive fission products using 5A molecular sieves (5A), based on the principles of electrorefining, with the ultimate aim of achieving sustainable development in nuclear fuel. First, Lutetium (Lu)-Bi alloy was synthesized through constant potential electrolysis in the LiCl-KCl-LuCl melt, resulting in a 90.

The behavior of low-carbon steels (LCSs), a high-strength steel and a nickel-chromium alloy in HCl solutions in the presence of N-containing organic substances has been studied. N-containing organic substances that comprise 1,2,4-triazole in their structure (substance I and substance II) provide comprehensive protection of various steel grades from corrosion and hydrogen absorption by the metal bulk in HCl solutions under both isobaric and isochoric conditions. All the compounds studied reduce, to varying degrees, the concentration of hydrogen adsorbed and absorbed by steel in HCl solutions.

Single atom alloys (SAAs) have gained tremendous attention as promising materials with unique physicochemical properties, particularly in catalysis. The stability of SAAs relies on the formation of a single active dopant on the surface of a metal host, quantified by the surface segregation and aggregation energy. Previous studies have investigated the surface segregation of non-ligated and ligated SAAs to reveal the driving forces underlying such phenomena.
