Superior plasticity stability and excellent strength in Ti-55531 alloy micropillars via harmony slip in nanoscale α/β phases.

ABSTRACT: Excellent stability of plasticity and high strength are acquired in Ti55531 alloy micropillars via introducing a high density of deformable nanoscale α phase into a β matrix. The yield strength of the pillars is as high as 2.26 GPa irrespective of pillar sizes ranging from 6 to 0.3 μm, which is high enough to activate dislocation slip both in ductile α precipitates and the β matrix. The harmony slip model was proposed to interpret slip transmission between the nanoscale α phase and the divided β matrix, and both α and β accommodate their individual plasticity during compression. This results in an excellent combination of high strength and stable plasticity in Ti55531 alloy micron-to submicron pillars. The results highlight the novel strengthening and toughening mechanisms of nanostructured alloys and a specific type of microstructure that exhibits stable plasticity for nano/microdevices.

Screening on binary Ti alloy with excellent mechanical property and castability for dental prosthesis application.

Project description:In the present study, the microstructure, mechanical property, castability, corrosion behavior and in vitro cytocompatibility of binary Ti-2X alloys with various alloying elements, including Ag, Bi, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, Mo, Nb, Sn and Zr, were systematically investigated, in order to assess their potential applications in dental field. The experimental results showed that all binary Ti‒2X alloys consisted entirely α-Ti phase. The tensile strength and microhardness of Ti were improved by adding alloying elements. The castability of Ti was significantly improved by separately adding 2 wt.% Bi, Ga, Hf, Mo, Nb, Sn and Zr. The corrosion resistance of Ti in both normal artificial saliva solution (AS) and extreme artificial saliva solution (ASFL, AS with 0.2 wt.% NaF and 0.3 wt.% lactic acid) has been improved by separately adding alloying elements. In addition, the extracts of studied Ti‒2X alloys produced no significant deleterious effect to both fibroblasts L929 cells and osteoblast-like MG63 cells, indicating a good in vitro cytocompatibility, at the same level as pure Ti. The combination of enhanced mechanical properties, castability, corrosion behavior, and in vitro cytocompatibility make the developed Ti‒2X alloys have great potential for future stomatological applications.

A one-step fabrication of soft-magnetic high entropy alloy fiber with excellent strength and flexibility.

Project description:Soft-magnetic fibers (SMFs) play a crucial role in energy conversion, transmission, and storage within electronic devices. However, conventional SMFs have poor plasticity and are therefore difficult to withstand long-term tensile, torsional, and shear deformation. A high fraction of grain boundaries could improve plastic deformability of conventional SMFs, but deteriorates the coercivity. This severely limits their applications in flexible electronics and multifunctional components. Herein, we propose a strategy to overcome this dilemma, which is realized by coarsening the grains of a Fe34Co29Ni29Al3Ta3Si2 high entropy alloy (HEA) fiber containing ordered coherent nanoprecipitates with small lattice misfit via a simple one-step in-rotating-water spinning method. This allows to reduce domain wall pinning and improve dislocation mobility. The resultant micron-diameter soft-magnetic HEA fiber has a tensile strength of 674 MPa at 23% elongation, a low coercivity of 8.1 Oe, a moderate magnetization of 116 emu/g at 10 kOe and a high Curie temperature of 770 K.

Ciliated micropillars for the microfluidic-based isolation of nanoscale lipid vesicles.

Project description:We fabricated a microfluidic device consisting of ciliated micropillars, forming a porous silicon nanowire-on-micropillar structure. We demonstrated that the prototype device can preferentially trap exosome-like lipid vesicles, while simultaneously filtering out proteins and cell debris. Trapped lipid vesicles can be recovered intact by dissolving the porous nanowires in PBS buffer.

Nanoscale slip length prediction with machine learning tools.

Project description:This work incorporates machine learning (ML) techniques, such as multivariate regression, the multi-layer perceptron, and random forest to predict the slip length at the nanoscale. Data points are collected both from our simulation data and data from the literature, and comprise Molecular Dynamics simulations of simple monoatomic, polar, and molecular liquids. Training and test points cover a wide range of input parameters which have been found to affect the slip length value, concerning dynamical and geometrical characteristics of the model, along with simulation parameters that constitute the simulation conditions. The aim of this work is to suggest an accurate and efficient procedure capable of reproducing physical properties, such as the slip length, acting parallel to simulation methods. Non-linear models, based on neural networks and decision trees, have been found to achieve better performance compared to linear regression methods. After the model is trained on representative simulation data, it is capable of accurately predicting the slip length values in regions between or in close proximity to the input data range, at the nanoscale. Results also reveal that, as channel dimensions increase, the slip length turns into a size-independent material property, affected mainly by wall roughness and wettability.

Long-term survivorship of an exchangeable-neck hip prosthesis with a Ti-alloy/Ti-alloy neck-stem junction.

Project description:IntroductionBreakage of exchangeable-neck (EN) and adverse local tissue reactions (ALTRs) to neck-stem junction (NSJ) damage products are responsible for increasing the revision rate of EN hip prostheses. We investigated the survivorship of an EN hip prosthesis including a NSJ with both components made of titanium alloy (Ti-alloy/Ti-alloy) to assess whether, and to what extent, EN breakage and NSJ damage affected implant survivorship.Materials and methodsUsing data from a hip replacement registry, we determined survivorship of 2857 EN prostheses. Long-offset configurations of head and EN were implanted in heavy (> 90 kg) patients only in 23 hips. We investigated under which conditions EN breakages or ALTRs occurred. We also measured titanium (Ti) and vanadium (V) blood concentrations in 24 patients with a unilateral well-working prosthesis.ResultsThe 17-year survival rates for any reason and aseptic loosening of any component were 88.9% (95%CI 87.5-90.1; 857 hips at risk) and 96.9% (95%CI 96.0-97.6), respectively. There were two cases of EN breakage and one case of ALTR (metallosis), due to rim-neck impingement, out of 276 revisions. After an average period of 9.8 years (range 7.8-12.8 years), the maximum Ti and V blood concentrations in patients with a well-working prosthesis were 5.0 µg/l and 0.16 µg/l, respectively.ConclusionThe present incidence of EN breakage or ALTR is lower than those reported in other studies evaluating EN hip prosthesis survivorship. This study suggests that (i) the risk of EN breakage is reduced by limiting the use of long-offset configurations in heavy patients and (ii) Ti-alloy/Ti-alloy NSJ damage products do not promote ALTR nor significantly alter the rate of implant loosening. Since design decisions and implant configuration determine the NSJ strength, the NSJ strength in working conditions must be thoroughly investigated to proper define the clinical indications for any EN design.

Superelastic oxide micropillars enabled by surface tension-modulated 90° domain switching with excellent fatigue resistance.

Project description:Superelastic materials capable of recovering large nonlinear strains are ideal for a variety of applications in morphing structures, reconfigurable systems, and robots. However, making oxide materials superelastic has been a long-standing challenge due to their intrinsic brittleness. Here, we fabricate ferroelectric BaTiO3 (BTO) micropillars that not only are superelastic but also possess excellent fatigue resistance, lasting over 1 million cycles without accumulating residual strains or noticeable variation in stress-strain curves. Phase field simulations reveal that the large recoverable strains of BTO micropillars arise from surface tension-modulated 90° domain switching and thus are size dependent, while the small energy barrier and ultralow energy dissipation are responsible for their unprecedented cyclic stability among superelastic materials. This work demonstrates a general strategy to realize superelastic and fatigue-resistant domain switching in ferroelectric oxides for many potential applications.

Segregation mediated heterogeneous structure in a metastable β titanium alloy with a superior combination of strength and ductility.

Project description:In β titanium alloys, the β stabilizers segregate easily and considerable effort has been devoted to alleviate/eliminate the segregation. In this work, instead of addressing the segregation problems, the segregation was utilized to develop a novel microstructure consisting of a nanometre-grained duplex (α+β) structure and micrometre scale β phase with superior mechanical properties. An as-cast Ti-9Mo-6W alloy exhibited segregation of Mo and W at the tens of micrometre scale. This was subjected to cold rolling and flash annealing at 820 oC for 2 and 5 mins. The solidification segregation of Mo and W leads to a locally different microstructure after cold rolling (i.e., nanostructured β phase in the regions rich in Mo and W and plate-like martensite and β phase in regions relatively poor in Mo and W), which play a decisive role in the formation of the heterogeneous microstructure. Tensile tests showed that this alloy exhibited a superior combination of high yield strength (692 MPa), high tensile strength (1115 MPa), high work hardening rate and large uniform elongation (33.5%). More importantly, the new technique proposed in this work could be potentially applicable to other alloy systems with segregation problems.

Computer Alloy Design of Ti Modified Al-Si-Mg-Sr Casting Alloys for Achieving Simultaneous Enhancement in Strength and Ductility.

Project description:In this paper, an efficient design of a Ti-modified Al-Si-Mg-Sr casting alloy with simultaneously enhanced strength and ductility was achieved by integrating computational thermodynamics, machine learning, and key experiments within the Bayesian optimization framework. Firstly, a self-consistent Al-Si-Mg-Sr-Ti quinary thermodynamic database was established by the calculation of phase diagram method and verified by key experiments. Based on the established thermodynamic database, a high-throughput Scheil-Gulliver solidification simulation of the A356-0.005Sr alloy with different Ti contents was carried out to establish the "composition-microstructure" quantitative relationship of the alloy. Then, by combining the computational thermodynamic, machine learning, and experimental data within the Bayesian optimization framework, the relationship "composition/processing-microstructure-properties" of A356-0.005Sr with different Ti contents was constructed and validated by the key experiments. Furthermore, the optimum alloy composition of the Ti-modified A356-0.005Sr casting alloy was designed based on this integration method with the Bayesian optimization framework and verified by the experiments. It is anticipated that the present integration method may serve as a general one for the efficient design of casting alloys, especially in the high-dimensional composition space.

Nanoscale Surface Disorder for Enhanced Solar Absorption and Superior Visible-Light Photocatalytic Property in Ti-Rich BaTiO<sub>3</sub> Nanocrystals.

Project description:Lattice disorder has emerged as a novel strategy to realize visible-light photocatalytic activity, but many existing studies often involved reduction states simultaneously. Photocatalysts based on only the lattice disorder but without the reduction states are still quite lacking and challenging. To this end, we explored a new type of lattice disorder in terms of the surface atom nonstoichiometry strategy in BaTiO3. Well-dispersed tetragonal BaTiO3 nanocrystals with a uniform size (∼20 nm) and cuboid morphology were hydrothermally synthesized through controlling over t-butylamine and oleic acid. HRTEM coupled with structural evolution analysis reveals the existence of a Ti-rich layer on BaTiO3 nanocrystals with surface atom disorder, which gives an overall Ti/Ba ratio of 1.50:1. This is mainly dominated by the oriented adsorption between oleic acid and surface Ba2+ of the nucleus during solution reaction. Such a surface disorder and Ti-rich nonstoichiometry effect could facilitate the enhanced visible-light absorption with a wavelength span of 400-700 nm that enables the superior visible-light photocatalytic property, which is not subject to the reduction states. This work demonstrates a first white material presenting a new type of lattice disorder that would be helpful for a wide range of photocatalyst explorations.

Simultaneous increase in strength and ductility by decreasing interface energy between Zn and Al phases in cast Al-Zn-Cu alloy.

Project description:Cast-Al alloys that include a high amount of the second element in their matrix have comparatively high strength but low ductility because of the high volume fraction of strengthening phases or undesirable inclusions. Al-Zn alloys that have more than 30 wt% Zn have a tensile strength below 300 MPa, with elongation under 5% in the as-cast state. However, we found that after substitution of 2% Zn by Cu, the tensile strength of as-cast Al-Zn-Cu alloys was 25% higher and ductility was four times higher than for the corresponding Al-35% Zn alloy. Additionally, for the Al-43% Zn alloy with 2% Cu after 1 h solution treatment at 400 °C and water quenching, the tensile strength unexpectedly reached values close to 600 MPa. For the Al-33% Zn alloy with 2% Cu, the tensile strength was 500 MPa with 8% ductility. The unusual trends of the mechanical properties of Al-Zn alloys with Cu addition observed during processing from casting to the subsequent solution treatment were attributed to the precipitation of Zn in the Al matrix. The interface energy between the Zn particles and the Al matrix decreased when using a solution of Cu in Zn.
