Formation of a hard-soft core-shell structure by controlled annealing Open
A soft τ1 (Al2.68Ag0.32Zr) shell and hard τ2 (Al1.84Ag0.16Zr) core, were formed in the Al0.46Ag0.32Zr0.22 alloy by annealing. The microstructure, crystal structure, and hardness of the core–shell structure were characterised in detail. Com…

Lanthanum-Promoted Nickel-Based Catalysts for the Dry Reforming of Methane at Low Temperatures Open
In recent decades, considerable attention has been paid to the catalytic dry reforming of methane to obtain syngas. This reaction has very important environmental implications due to the utilization of CH 4 and CO 2 , gases that contribute…

Synergistic effects of tubular halloysite clay and zirconium phosphate on thermal behavior of intumescent coating for structural steel Open
Zirconium phosphate (ZrP) recently introduced in intumescent fire protective coating has shown improvement in developing ceramic layer. The tubular halloysite clay (THC) due to its unique molecular structure can be combined with ZrP to enh…

Evaluation of the reactivity, selectivity and lifetime of hydrotalcite-based catalysts using isopropanol as probe molecule Open
Hydrotalcite catalysts derived from NiAl and NiAlMg mixed oxides were successfully prepared by coprecipitation at a constant pH of 11. Physicochemical methods were investigated to determine their structural and textural properties. Using i…

The Polythermal Section of Ti-22Al-xNb (30-78at.%Ti) in Ti–Al–Nb System Open
The polythermal section of Ti-22Al-xNb (30–78 at.% Ti) in the Ti-Al-Nb system was studied using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), differential thermal analysis (DSC), and electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA). No new ternary compounds were …

Thermal Stability of FeS 2 Cathode Material in “Thermal” Batteries: Effect of Dissolved Oxides in Molten Salt Electrolytes Open
The thermal stability of FeS 2 cathode material for thermal batteries is investigated in the LiCl-KCl eutectic containing up to 10 wt% Li 2 O (used as anti-peak).The results show that the decomposition of pyrite shifts to higher temperatur…

High Temperature Corrosion Studies of a Zirconia Coating: Implications for Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Plants Open
Corrosion of functional parts within waste-to-energy (WTE) plants significantly reduces their efficiency with respect to maintenance costs. Currently, nickel-based alloy claddings, several millimeters thick, are the state of the art as ant…
