Quantitative prediction of crystallization in laser powder bed fusion of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass with high oxygen content

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Navid Sohrabi, Hossein Ghasemi Tabasi, Toni Ivas

One of the main challenges in the fabrication of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) via laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) is undesirable crystal phase formation, which usually deteriorates the mechanical properties of the BMG fabricated parts. Understandin ...

Supramolecular Modifications of Semicrystalline Polymers

Michael Alan Giffin

Supramolecular interactions play an important role in defining the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of materials. For instance, interchain hydrogen-bonding in PAs gives them superior strength and stiffness in engineering materials, while t ...

High Sensitivity Detection of a Solubility Limiting Surface Transformation of Drug Particles by DNP SENS

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon, Jasmine Viger-Gravel

We investigate the presence of a surface species for the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) AZD9496 with dynamic nuclear polarization surface enhanced nuclear spectroscopy (DNP SENS). We show that using DNP we can elucidate the presence of an amorphous ...

Key factors boosting the performance of planar ZnFe2O4 photoanodes for solar water oxidation

Kevin Sivula, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Yongpeng Liu, Florent Alexandre Boudoire

The performance of ZnFe2O4 photoanodes largely depends on their nanostructure, crystallinity and n-type doping, though decoupling their impact on photoactivity remains a challenge. Herein, the combined effects of the synthesis temperature and reductive ann ...

Controlling structural and magnetic properties of IONPs by aqueous synthesis for improved hyperthermia

Heinrich Hofmann, Alla Arakcheeva, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were synthesized by a novel aqueous synthesis route which combines co-precipitation (CP) and hydrothermal (HT) treatment, termed CP + HT, and compared with IONPs obtained by the standard CP method. Properties of both types ...
