Prediction of Interfacial Reaction Between Cu and In During Low-Temperature Soldering
© 2022, ASM International.Interfacial reaction between Cu and In has been predicted and analyzed based on computational thermodynamics and diffusion kinetics. The Cu11In9 compound phase is predicted to form first and grow dominantly at the initial stage of the reaction between Cu-rich FCC and In-rich liquid phases during low-temperature soldering. ...
Passive antifouling and active self-disinfecting antiviral surfaces.
Published in Chemical engineering journal (Lausanne, Switzerland : 1996)
Viruses pose a serious threat to human health and society in general, as virus infections are one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality. Till May 2022, over 513 million people around the world have been confirmed to be infected and more than 6.2 million have died due to SARS-CoV-2. Although the COVID-19 pandemic will be defeated in the near...

Cu-functionalised porous boron nitride derived from a metal–organic framework
Porous boron nitride (BN) displays promising properties for interfacial and bulk processes, e.g. molecular separation and storage, or (photo)catalysis. To maximise porous BN's potential in such applications, tuning and controlling its chemical and structural features is key. Functionalisation of porous BN with metal nanoparticle represents one poss...
Enhancing the performance of Bi2S3 in electrocatalytic and supercapacitor applications by controlling lattice strain
Lattice-strained Bi2S3 with 3D hierarchical structures are prepared through a top-down route by a topotactic transformation. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirm the lattice spacing is expanded by prolonged sulfuration. Performance studies demonstrate that Bi2S3 with the largest lattice expansion (Bi2...
Electrical machines winding technology : latest advancements for transportation electrification
The ever-increasing demand for higher-power dense electrical machines has resulted in different electrical, mechanical, and thermal stresses, which can eventually cause machine failure. For this reason, the management of stresses and losses must be thoughtfully investigated to have a highly reliable electrical machine. The literature agrees that wi...
Simultaneously achieving selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3 and catalytic oxidation of CO with O-2 over one f...
For coke oven flue gases, the simultaneous removal of NOx and CO pollutants is highly demanded but still re-mains a big challenge. So far there isn't a single efficient catalyst that can simultaneously achieve selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 and the catalytic oxidation of CO to CO2 in the presence of excessive O-2 at low temperatures (1...
