Evolution of Precipitates and Microhardness of L-PBF Inconel 625 Through Relevant Thermal Treatment by Tahmina Keya, Ralf D. Fischer, Mohanish Andurkar, Scott M. Thompson, Valentina O’Donnell, John Gahl, Barton C. Prorok

“…The alloy is prone to precipitation under elevated temperatures, which makes designing suitable heat treatment to tailor the desired microstructure and mechanical properties critical. Traditional heat treatment for wrought IN625 cannot be applied to L-PBF IN625; therefore, it is vital to understand the evolution of precipitates on the way to complete recrystallization. …”

Novel approach to enhance antifungal properties via formation of wavy and Sharp microstructures composed of metal oxide nanoparticles and Cdots by Satya Pal Singh, Himanshi Yadav, Himanshi Chauhan, Vivek Hada, Kumari Neha Singh

“…The microtiter plates were first coated with 2, 5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (DMcT) dissolved in methanol (1 gm/mL) and were then dried and coated with NPs and C-dots using their suspensions in deionised water with three different concentrations. The evolution of spinodal wave-like structures, as reported in our case of evaporating thin films, appears to leave behind spiky and periodic wavy blades and needle-like nano-microstructures composed of NPs and Cdots. …”
