The method allows to observe local deformation under the influence of mobile hydrogen and thus helps to understand how hydrogen affects dislocation mechanics. #materialsscience #materials #engineeringeducation #engineering.

Environmentally friendly #metal production. Enjoy the read 😊.#metallurgy #engineering #alloys #sustainabilitygoals #materials #materialsscience.
Metal #production causes 40% of industrial greenhouse gas, 10% of global energy consumption, 3.2 billion tonnes of #minerals mined, and several billion tonnes by-products per year. Time, to make #metals more #sustainable.

The martensitic transformation, triggered during cooling, creates ultra-strong “islands” that enhance strength, while the ductile FCC matrix maintains toughness and prevents fracture. #materialsscience #Alloy #Metallurgy.

Image of July: For the first time, we observed martensitic transformation occurring only within the BCC regions of a multicomponent #alloy , while the surrounding FCC matrix remained unaffected - seen in AlCoNiV . Thanks to Raymond Kwesi Nutor for providing research insights👏

In the image, water molecules align so that oxygen points toward the positively charged sodium ion (orange), while hydrogen aligns toward the negatively charged chloride ion (green). Insights helpful for better batteries and catalysts 😀.

What does a salt dimer in water teach us about better #batteries or more efficient #catalysts ?.This #visualisation shows the hydration shells of a solvated NaCl dimer and how #water molecules arrange around sodium (Na⁺) and chloride (Cl⁻) ions. Thanks to Zhenyu Wang 👍
