The effects of electrochemical nitridation on the corrosion resistance of the 2205 duplex
stainless steel were investigated. It was found that increased nitrogen content in the 2205 …

This study is a continuation of our previous work (Baumli et al. J Mater Sci 45: 5177–5190,
2010) in which the wettability of graphite by liquid aluminum was studied under different …

The phase equilibria of the binary Gd–Ti system were studied by combining electrostatic
levitation of the melt with high energy synchrotron in situ X-ray diffraction at elevated …

Wetting behavior and reactivity between molten pure Gd and polycrystalline 3YSZ substrate
(ZrO 2 stabilized with 3 wt% of Y 2 O 3) was experimentally determined by a sessile drop …

The sessile drop method combined with contact heating procedure was applied for the
investigation of high-temperature interaction between liquid Gd and Y 2 O 3 substrate. Real …

The drop-assisted techniques (sessile drop, drop pushing, drop touching) were applied for
high temperature investigations of critical temperatures in Gd-Ti alloys. A high-speed and …

The sessile drop method was applied for investigation of high temperature interaction of
liquid Gd, Ti, binary Gd-Ti and ternary Gd-Ti-Zr alloys in contact with dense polycrystalline …

Abstract Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) was applied in order to determine the
critical temperatures phase transformations of the Gd40Ti30Zr30 alloy (wt%). The …

Development of metallic materials, especially alloys containing highly reactive elements
such as Gd, is inextricably linked to the search for new refractory materials for melting and …
