TL;DR: Researchers synthesized VCxO1-x solid solution through carbothermal reduction, controlling C/O ratio and temperature, and found it exhibits better thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and high conductivity, with potential applications in energy storage, catalysis, and metallic vanadium preparation.

TL;DR: Researchers develop a novel method to enhance molybdenum alloy's low-temperature plasticity and high-temperature strength by uniformly dispersing nano-ZrTiO4 particles, resulting in refined grains, improved toughness, and enhanced compressive strength at high temperatures.

TL;DR: Development trend in die steel for integrated die-casting technology focuses on novel steel compositions, heat treatment optimization, microstructure manipulation, and nano-strengthening techniques to enhance performance and meet weight reduction goals.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of neutron irradiation on microstructural evolution and radiation hardening were examined for fine-grained W-0.3%TiC and commercially available pure W-20μm.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used mechanical alloying (MA) in different gas atmospheres of H 2, Ar and N 2 and hot isostatic pressing to construct W-TiC with equiaxed grain sizes of 50-200nm and nearly full density of 99%.

TL;DR: In this paper, a unique in-house synthesized oxide@W core-shell nanopowder was used as a precursor to prepare W-based oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloy, which achieved a great enhancement of strength and ductility at room temperature.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the recent progress of simulations and experiments on interface design strategies that achieve high performance refractory alloys such as tungsten and molybdenum based alloys with high strength, thermal/electrical conductivity, low coefficient of thermal expansion and excellent creep resistances.
