A giant magnetocaloric effect across the ferromagnetic (FM) to paramagnetic (PM) phase transition was observed in chemically synthesized Co2FeAl Heusler alloy nanoparticles with a mean diameter of 16 nm. In our previous report, we have significant enhancement its saturation magnetization (Ms) and Curie temperature (Tc) as compared bulk counterpart. Motivated from those results, here, aim explor...

In this study, the influence of multi-step heating methods, such as two-step methods and three-step on properties Al–Si coating boron steel sheet were evaluated by using Gleeble-3500 thermal simulator. The evolution microstructure 3D surface topography also investigated. results showed that rates 50 °C/s, named rapid heating, at stage 20–500 °C did not significantly in methods. indicated volume...

Surface modification is an essential step in engineering materials that can withstand the increasingly aggressive environments encountered in various modern energy-conversion systems and chemical processing industries. However, most traditional technologies exhibit disadvantages such as slow diffusion kinetics, processing difficulties or compatibility issues. Here, we present a general strategy...

The aqueous corrosion resistances of galvalume (FeAl+Zn) and steel galvanized (Fe-Zn) alloys, passivated by immersion in chromating solution with different immersion times (0, 10, 30 y 60 s) are compared. The electrochemical behaviour of various chromated and non-chromated coatings was investigated in 3 wt-% NaCl solution using polarization techniques. For comparison, AISI 1010 carbon steel sub...

The relation between chemical composition, microstructure and oxidation properties has been investigated on various FeAl based alloys, the aim being to induce changes in the microstructure of the compound by selective oxidation of aluminium. Oxidation kinetics that was evaluated on bulk specimens showed that, due to fast diffusion in the alloys, no composition gradient is formed during the alum...
