Abstract In this research, Laser Cladding (LC) of three different alloys powders, two iron-
based (AISI 4140 and SS420) and a Cobalt-based (Stellite 6) was performed on a Grey Cast …

Single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SCSC) polymerization offers an effective protocol for the
environmentally friendly preparation of polymer single crystals (PSCs) with extremely high …

It is challenging to prepare room temperature self-healing materials that balance self-
healing and mechanical properties. In this study, we introduces a concept of “asymmetric …

A biodegradable superhydrophobic polylactic acid-carnauba wax (PLA/CW) coating was
fabricated via a simple spray-coating method. The PLA/CW coating displayed excellent …

Superhydrophobic coating has been a research focus due to its self-cleaning, anti-fouling,
