UO 2 fuel pellets are often doped with chromium oxide to obtain favourable properties such
as higher density, improved thermal stability, large grain sizes, improved pellet-clad …

The cyclic oxidation behaviour of three Ni-based superalloys IN738LC, Rene 80 and N5
was investigated. The test consisted of 1000 cycles of 1 h exposure in static air at 900° C …

Ceramic tools have been successfully applied in laser-assisted machining of nickel-based
alloys. However, few studies have addressed high temperature dry frictional behavior of …

The importance of Cr 2 O 3 (chromia) lies in its ability to form protective layers on chromium-
rich metallic alloys, which is utilised in the industry for constructing corrosion-resistant …

Equations of state of corundum (α-Al2O3), eskolaite (Cr2O3), hematite (α-Fe2O3), and
magnetite (Fe3O4) are constructed based on the Helmholtz free energy by simultaneous …

Detailed understanding of the elastic properties and mechanical durability of ceramic
materials is crucial for their utilization in advanced microelectronic or micro-electromechanic …

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to investigate the directional
dependence and the values of the threshold energies (TDEs) for the displacements of the …

To reduce scale spallation, scale volatilization, and nitrogen embrittlement in Cr-based
systems, reactive elements such as Y, Zr, Hf, La, and Ce were introduced as oxide …

In this research, two transparent chromium oxide thin films having different thickness values
were simultaneously deposited on glass substrates by adjusting target-substrate distance by …

In the past few decades NiAl-based intermetallics have been of interest due to their high
