Utilizing the average Reynolds equation, lubrication friction theory, metal rolling deformation theory, and temperature energy theory, a multi-parameter-coupling mixed lubrication model considering the influence of surface roughness with Gaussian dis...

In this study, the hydroxyapatite (HAp) in the form of nanoparticles was synthesized through the wet co-precipitation method and loaded with plant extract from Calendula officinalis L. rich in biologically active myo-inositol, and the 5-fluorouracil...

Coating technology, as a common coating method, is widely used in many industrial fields, among which the mattress industry utilizes it to bond sponges to produce foam mattresses. The thickness of the coating on the sponge is crucial to the quality a...

The demand for ultra-tight encapsulation solutions with excellent barrier and high conformality properties has increased in recent years. To meet these challenges, thin-film barrier coatings have emerged as a promising solution. In this study, we inv...

This study shows the possibility of the fabrication of titanium borides by an alloying of a titanium substrate with boron powder via a scanning electron beam. During the electron beam alloying experiments, the speed movement of the specimens was vari...

Imitating microstructures found in nature—such as lotus leaves and Namib beetles—is revolutionary in the field of surface science. Low-energy surfaces, when combined with different topographies, create different wetting states. Understand...

Coatings and surface modifications have long been applied in a broad variety of areas including petrochemical, automotive, power generation, aerospace and even in the medical industry [...]

The development of highly efficient and low-cost bifunctional electrocatalysts for water splitting has become increasingly attractive. So far, the strategies to optimize electrocatalytic performance have mainly focused on enhancing the active sites a...

(Sr,Ba)Nb2O6 (SBN) relaxor ferroelectric thin films exhibiting nonlinear properties promising for microwave applications were grown on a polycrystalline aluminum oxide substrate for the first time. Films of good crystallinity were obtained using the...

Fiber-reinforced composites are widely used in industrial development due to their excellent performance, and the study of basalt fiber-reinforced resin (BFRP) as a new type of economical and environmentally friendly material is highly valued, since...
