The vast of majority of battery electrode materials of contemporary interest are of a
crystalline nature. Crystals are, by definition, anisotropic from an atomic-structure …

Recently, heterogeneous single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted enormous attention in
electrochemical applications owing to their advantages of high metal utilization, well-defined …

The atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique allows the synthesis of materials at the atomic
scale to be controlled. ALD has been adapted to design and prepare single-atom catalysts …

The present work studies the strengthening mechanisms of a creep-resistant Mg-0.5 Gd-1.2
Ca (at.%) alloy at both room and elevated temperatures. Although peak-ageing (T6) at 180° …

Abstract Effect of various Mn content (0, 0.5, 1.3, 1.5 2.0 wt%) on microstructure and
mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The 0.5 wt% Mn addition results in …

Single atoms are attracting much attention in the field of energy conversion and storage due
to their maximal atomic utilization, high efficiency, and good selectivity. Moreover, their …

Abstract The magnesium-gadolinium (Mg–Gd) system provides an ideal model alloy for
precipitation hardening. Evolution of precipitates in a Mg–16.2 Gd–0.4 Zr (wt.%) alloy during …

In the present study, we have systematically investigated how the influence of silver (Ag)
addition (0.3 wt%) on the microstructural and mechanical properties of Mg-6Gd-3Y-1Zn-0.4 …

In this study, we successfully developed a low RE containing Mg-3Y-2Gd-1Nd-0.5 Zr (wt%)
alloy with high strength-ductility synergy by combined processes of hot extrusion, hot rolling …

High-performance as-extruded and peak-aged Mg-9.2 Gd-3.3 Y-1.2 Zn-0.9 Mn (wt%) alloys
have been fabricated by semi-continuous casting, heat-treating, extruding and ageing …
