For the investigation of interpenetrating materials, the microstructure and the associated
damage mechanism are crucial for the understanding of its properties. In this work, an …

The wetting behavior of liquid magnesium drop on pure tungsten substrates was
investigated, for the first time, with the sessile drop method combined with non-contact …

Despite the application of aluminum melt filtration with ceramic foam filters since the 1960s
the process is not fully understood. Outstanding issues are for example the influence of the …

Biofilms formed by Proteus mirabilis strains are a serious medical problem, especially in the
case of urinary tract infections. Early stages of biofilm formation, such as reversible and …

Interface plays a crucial role to enhance the mechanical properties of metal-matrix
composites. Here, we investigated and modulated the intrinsic characteristics of Al 2 O 3/Al …

The effect of surface orientation on the reactive wetting of sapphire by Al–Ti alloys was
studied by the modified sessile drop method at 1273 K under a high vacuum atmosphere …

The paper discusses the scientific understanding of the role of interfacial phenomena in
joining of dissimilar materials using liquid-phase-assisted processes. From the example of …

A novel technique is proposed and demonstrated for processing interpenetrating ceramic–
metal composites by the infiltration of molten metals/alloys into ceramic foams utilizing a …

The present study characterizes the evolution of oxides at the Al liquid/vapor interface by
combining high-temperature wetting, droplet-pushing experiments, in-situ observation of …

The valorization of aluminum dross for Al recovery was performed via its mixing with metallic
copper to produce Al-Cu alloys. This approach was with the intention of establishing a new …
