- Metals | An Open Access Journal from MDPI
Metals is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal published monthly online by MDPI The Portuguese Society of Materials (SPM), and the Spanish Materials Society (SOCIEMAT) are affiliated with Metals and their members receive discounts on the article processing charges Open Access — free for readers, with article processing charges (APC) paid by authors or their institutions
- Ductile–Brittle Transition Mechanism and Dilute Solution Softening . . .
Body-centered cubic (BCC) metals, extensively utilized in low-alloy high-strength steels and heat-resistant alloys, exhibit a pronounced ductile–brittle transition (DBT) at cryogenic temperatures, marked by a well-defined yet narrow ductile–brittle transition temperature (DBTT) window This paper overviews the research progress regarding the DBT mechanism of BCC metals This mechanism was
- Bioaccumulation and Trophic Transfer of Heavy Metals in Marine Fish . . .
Heavy metal contamination in marine ecosystems poses a critical environmental challenge, with significant implications for biodiversity, trophic dynamics, and human health Marine fish are key bioindicators of heavy metal pollution because of their role in food webs and their capacity for bioaccumulation and trophic transfer This review synthesizes current knowledge on the pathways and
- Growth and Mechanical Characterization of Mycelium-Based . . . - MDPI
Today’s architectural and agricultural practices negatively impact the planet Mycelium-based composites are widely researched with the aim of producing sustainable building materials by upcycling organic byproducts To go further, this study analyzed the growth process and tested the mechanical behavior of composite materials grown from fungal species used in bioremediation Agricultural
- Combustion of Metals in Oxygen-Enriched Atmospheres - MDPI
Metal combustion is one of the main issues threatening service safety in oxygen-enriched atmospheres, leading to unexpected explosions in rocket engines This paper reviews the recent development of metals combustion in oxygen-enriched atmospheres Test methods under three typical conditions and combustion behaviors of three typical metals are mainly discussed The microstructures of the
- Clay-Based Materials for Heavy Metals Adsorption: Mechanisms . . .
Given the severe threats posed by heavy metal pollution to ecological environments and human health, developing effective remediation technologies is of paramount importance This review delves into the mechanisms, recent advancements, and future prospects of clay mineral-based materials in the adsorption of heavy metals Clay minerals such as kaolinite, montmorillonite, and bentonite have
- Immobilization of Heavy Metals in Biochar Derived from Biosolids . . .
Slow pyrolysis was carried out in biosolids under three different temperatures (400, 500 and 600 °C) and two different carrier gases (CO2 and N2) on a fluidized bed reactor The total concentration, chemical fractionation, and plant availability of the heavy metals in biochar were assessed by standard methods The total concentration of Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Cr, Ni and Pb increased with the
- A Review of Bubble Dynamics in Liquid Metals - MDPI
Gas bubbles are of major importance in most metallurgical processes They promote chemical reactions, homogenize the melt, or float inclusions Thus, their dynamics are of crucial interest for the optimization of metallurgical processes In this work, the state of knowledge of bubble dynamics at the bubble scale in liquid metals is reviewed Measurement methods, with emphasis on liquid metals
