Mechanical performance is crucial for biomedical applications of scaffolds. In this study, the stress distribution of six lattice-inspired structures was investigated using finite element simulations, and scaffolds with pre-designed structures were prepared using selective laser sintering (SLS) technology. The results showed that scaffolds with face-centered cubic (FCC) structures exhibited the highest compressive strength. Moreover, scaffolds composed of polylactic acid/anhydrous calcium hydrogen phosphate (PLA/DCPA) showed good mechanical properties and bioactivity. An study showed that these scaffolds promoted cell proliferation significantly and showed excellent osteogenic performance. Composite scaffolds with FCC structures are promising for bone tissue engineering.

(FeCoNi)A high-entropy alloy (HEA) is a new material with a strength similar to that of commercial Q235 structural steel, and its elongation is nearly three times greater than that of Q235 steel. Studying the welding process of the (FeCoNi)Al HEA and Q235 steel is expected to further expand the application range of commercial Q235 structural steel and provide a foundation for the engineering application of the (FeCoNi)Al HEA. This study focuses on the dissimilar welded components of (FeCoNi)Al HEA and Q235 steel and analyzes the forming quality, microstructure, and mechanical properties of dissimilar welded samples under different currents.

Achieving a substantial increase in the ammonia productivity of the Haber-Bosch (HB) process at low temperatures has been a significant challenge for over 100 years. However, the iron catalyst designed over 100 years ago remains at the forefront of this process because it is difficult to exceed the industrial iron catalyst in terms of the ammonia synthesis rate/catalyst volume that determines ammonia productivity in a reactor. Here, a new catalyst with an inverse structure of a supported metal catalyst that consists of metallic iron particles loaded with an aluminum hydride species is reported.

The recent synthesis of goldene, a 2D atomic monolayer of gold, has opened new avenues in exploring novel materials. However, the question of when multilayer goldene transitions into bulk gold remains unresolved. This study used density functional theory calculations to address this fundamental question.

Materials usually fracture before reaching their ideal strength limits. Meanwhile, materials with high strength generally have poor ductility, and vice versa. For example, gold with the conventional face-centered cubic (FCC) phase is highly ductile while the yield strength (~10MPa) is significantly lower than its ideal theoretical limit.

The ability to finely tune the nuclearity of active metal sites is critical for designing highly selective catalysts, especially for hydrogenation processes. In this work, we developed a novel PdCu catalyst with an ordered body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, enabling precise control over Pd nuclearity to optimize selectivity. Using a facile polyol synthesis method, we modulated the Pd coordination environment, reducing the Pd-Pd coordination number from 3 (disordered face-centered cubic, FCC) to 0 (ordered BCC), thereby achieving full isolation of Pd by the surrounding Cu atoms.
