The mechanical properties and electrochemical stability of high-entropy alloys are substantially affected by their composition distribution and crystal structure. However, the details concerning the conditions of milling and sintering for sintered alloys have rarely been reported. In this work, a series of CrMnFeCoNi alloys were fabricated by ball milling and spark plasm sintering for different periods. Their crystal structure, density, hardness, and corrosion resistance were investigated. As a result, a partial alloying of Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni was achieved by ball milling. However, Cr-rich particles, including Mn, were formed in the milled powders. The sintered alloys inherited the Cr-rich particles to form Cr-rich zones. The formation and change of chromium carbide were also confirmed in sintered alloys. Extended milling or sintering to 12 h achieved high hardness and corrosion resistance for the sintered alloys. The Cr-rich zones showed high hardness and Kelvin potential, which affect both the hardness and the corrosion resistance.

Laser cladding technology is an effective method for producing wear-resistant coatings on damaged substrates, improving both wear and corrosion resistance, which extends the service life of components. However, the fabrication of hard and brittle materials is highly susceptible to the problem of cracking. Using gradient transition layers is an effective strategy to mitigate the challenge of achieving crack-free laser-melted wear-resistant coatings.

Aluminum and its alloys are widely used in the busbar structures of electrolytic aluminum production. However, they are prone to corrosion and wear damage during use, leading to a decline in current-transmission efficiency and potentially causing safety issues. To repair damaged aluminum busbars, this paper explores the feasibility of using cold spraying technology for surface restoration.

One of the major problems facing the water industry is corrosion and sedimentation, which causes problems such as reduced water quality and the useful life of water supply network equipment. This study aimed to investigate the corrosion and sediments formed in the drinking water distribution network of Sough City. In this cross-sectional study, samples were prepared from 7 wells, water storage reservoirs, and a dedicated water supply network in this area from 2006 to 2017.

Seawater intrusion and human activities have significantly impacted coastal groundwater quality in many regions worldwide. This study systematically assessed groundwater chemistry, its suitability for drinking and irrigation (sample size, n = 3034), and exposure risks (n = 2863) across three key sub-regions of the Bohai Sea area: Bohai Bay, Liaodong Bay, and Laizhou Bay. Significant seasonal variations observed in groundwater chemistry at different depths in Bohai Bay region, with severe contamination from salinity-alkalinity and nitrogen-fluoride.
