A series of samples with different compositions and parameters were welded together. The alloys were based on Ni-8Al-8Cr-l.5Mo-0.01B %wt composition with Zr additions of 1 and 3 %wt. Crack-free full-penetration welds of castable nickel aluminide alloy were performed using autogenous GTAW technique. It was found that Ni-Ni5Zr eutectic was associated with solidification cracks. Alloys were fully dendritic and also, weld metal consisted of columnar and axial dendrites beside the fusion line and in the middle, respectively. Optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were employed to characterize the composition as well as the weld structure. X-Ray diffraction was utilized to... 

In recent years, key questions about the interaction of 2D MXene nanomaterials in electrochemical and biomedical applications have been raised. Most research has focused on clarifying the exclusive properties of the materials; however, only limited reports have described the biomedical applications of 2D nanomaterials. 2D MXenes are monolayer atomic nanosheets resulting from MAX phase ceramics. The hydrophilic properties, metallic conductivity, stability, and exclusive physiochemical performances make them promising materials for electrochemical and biomedical applications, including CO2 reduction, H2 evolution, energy conversion and storage, supercapacitors, stimuli-responsive drug delivery...
