The construction assembly and the repair of steel constructions painted with protective coatings are often carried out using arc welding. During the welding process, the coating in the weld zone is degrading. The protective coatings breakdown products are involved in the pore and non-metallic inclusion formation in the weld, the composition and distribution study of which makes it possible to analyze the reactions occurring during the welding. In this study, welding beads were deposited on the coated sheet surface by MAG welding. The distribution of inclusions (the average diameter and the relative content) along with the porosity in different bead zones were investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy and digital image processing, and the chemical composition of inclusions was determined using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The amount of diffusible hydrogen in the deposited metal was estimated with the vacuum method. In this work, four organosilicate coatings grades, differing in their purpose and heat resistance, were used, and their effect on the weld was studied.

The scope of this study was to apply advances in materials science, specifically the use of organosilicate nanoparticles as a high surface area platform for passive sampling of chemicals or pre-concentration for active sensing in multiple-phase complex environmental media. We have developed a novel nanoporous organosilicate (NPO) film as an extraction phase and proof of concept for application in adsorbing hydrophobic compounds in water and sediment. We characterized the NPO film properties and provided optimization for synthesis and coatings in order to apply the technology in environmental media.

Protecting Light Metal Alloys Using a Sustainable Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation Process.

ACS Omega

March 2022

Cirrus Materials Science Ltd., 5B Target Court, Auckland 0627, New Zealand.

Low-density metals such as Mg and Al (and their alloys) are of high interest for lightweight engineering applications in various industries. Moisture sensitivity, poor tribology, and corrosion susceptibility limit the direct application of these light metals. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is extensively used to passivate light metals against corrosion and enhance their mechanical properties.

Endogenous Copper for Nanocatalytic Oxidative Damage and Self-Protection Pathway Breakage of Cancer.

ACS Nano

October 2021

State Key Laboratory of High Performance Ceramics and Superfine Microstructures, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai 200050, P. R. China.

Nanocatalytic medicine is one of the most recent advances in the development of nanomedicine, which catalyzes intratumoral chemical reactions to produce toxins such as reactive oxygen species for cancer specific treatment by using exogenous-delivered catalysts such as Fenton agents. However, the overexpression of reductive glutathione and Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase in cancer cells will significantly counteract the therapeutic efficacy by reactive oxygen species-mediated oxidative damages. Additionally, the direct delivery of iron-based Fenton agents may arouse undesired detrimental effects such as anaphylactic reactions.

Programmed BMP-2 release from biphasic calcium phosphates for optimal bone regeneration.

Biomaterials

May 2021

Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul, 03722, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:

This study aimed to fabricate a multi-layered biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) platform for programmed bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) release, which means to block the initial burst release and promote releasing during the differentiation phase of osteogenic cells. And it is to confirm in vivo whether this platform has osteogenic inductivity even when extremely low doses of BMP-2 are loaded compared to the conventional soaking method. Our strategy consisted of preparing a multilayer coating on BCP to minimize the contact between BMP-2 and BCP and allow the loading of BMP-2.
