Effect of surfactants on pressure-sensitivity of carbon nanotube filled cement mortar composites

Description: In this article, the pressure-sensitivity of CNT filled cement mortar composites with different concentrations of MWNT and different surfactants is investigated under repeated loading and impulsive loading, respectively. Experimental results indicate that the response of the electrical resistance of composites with NaDDBS to external force is more stable and sensitive than that of composites with SDS. Therefore, NaDDBS has higher efficiency than SDS for the dispersion of MWNT in cement mortar, … more

Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties in a gas tungsten arc welded Fe42Mn28Co10Cr15Si5 metastable high entropy alloy

Description: Article asserts that weldability studies on high entropy alloys are still relatively scarce, delaying the deployment of these materials into real-life applications, thus, there is an urgent need for in-depth studies of the weldability of these novel advanced engineering alloys. In the current work, an as-cast Fe42Mn28Co10Cr15Si5 metastable high entropy alloy was welded for the first time using gas tungsten arc welding.
