The design of high-strength and high-thermal-conductivity magnesium alloy sheets is challenged by the inherent contradiction between strength and thermal conductivity, as well as the complex variables involved in the rolling process. In this study, Mg-xZn-0.5Gd-0.5Y (at.%) (1/x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) alloys were developed by adjusting the atomic ratio of rare earth (RE) elements to Zn. [...]

Lithium-ion battery cathode materials such as LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) are verysensitive to water, which has so far hindered the successful commercialization ofaqueous electrode processing strategies. Herein, a detailed investigation of thesurface and bulk reactivity of ordered LNMO with water and an aqueous solutionof phosphoric acid to decipher the reaction mechanism and the impact on theeventual electrochemical behavior is presented.

Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) is apowerful non-destructive assay for toxic elementssuch as Cd, Hg or Pb in radioactive packages [1,2]. Inparticular, for long-lived actinides, e.g [...]
