Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals

AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel is a promising candidate for utilising as interconnects of solid oxide fuel cells due to its cost effectiveness and durability. Many methods for applying coating on steel substrates have been developed in order to decrease the degradation of steel due to oxidation rate and chromium volatile problems. Manganese-cobalt spinel exhibits high conductivity, thermal expansion compatible with ferritic stainless steels, and forms a barrier to inhibit chromium migration during oxidation. Copper can be added to manganese-cobalt spinel to improve electrical conductivity of the spinel coating. This work investigated oxide scale formation and oxidation rate of Mn-Co …

Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals

The exponential growth in the requirement of fuel cells and batteries leads to increased demand for cobalt due to its common use in high-performance Li-ion batteries and high-temperature fuel cells/electrolyzers. This sharp increment in demand raises concern about the availability of limited reserves of cobalt which can impact the price of cobalt. Moreover, the geographic limitations of cobalt resources may endanger the whole supply chain. In addition to all those, huge moral issues of cobalt mining are also another problem. Hence, leading battery, fuel cells and electrolyzer manufacturers are looking for sustainable alternatives to reduce cobalt dependency. A more specific …

Effect Of Annealing Temperature On The Tio Anodized Films Properties For Dental Implant Application, Phanawan Whangdee, Wittawat Saenrang, Nampueng Pangpaiboon, Pristanuch Masakul, Dujreutai Pongkao Kashima

Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals

The TiO2 anodized films generated at low current density after annealing are good candidates for surface coating, as a hydrophilicity is a crucial characteristic that determines dental implant applications. In this study, the hydrophilicity of TiO2 anodized films annealed at various temperatures was examined. It was found that increasing the annealing temperature during the anodization procedure improves the hydrophilicity of the TiO2 anodized films. This is related to the evolution of the TiO2 anodized film structure produced by raising the annealing temperature, which converts the TiO2 anodized amorphous phase to rutile phases. Moreover, increased annealing temperature results in more oxygen …

Changes in the morphology and structural properties of the CNW films depending on the synthesis time were revealed. Shorter growth times lead to the formation of thinner CNW films with a dense labyrinth-like structure, while longer growth times lead to thicker CNW films with a petal-like structure. In addition, this study opens up the possibility of synthesizing …
