Uniformly dispersing GNPs for fabricating graphene-reinforced pure Ti matrix composites with enhanced strength and ductility

Achieving high strength and ductility in laser powder bed fusion‐manufactured pure titanium through the addition of carbon nanotubes

“…Due to the quick cooling in the laser printing process, the C atoms did not have sufficient time to diffuse and fill the TiC lattice, eventually forming only a TiC x precipitated phase. Similar phenomena have been reported previously [30][31][32]. Such TiC x precipitation regions were randomly distributed in the matrix with a low proportion, as shown in Fig.…”

The effect of ball milling process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ag@rGO/Ti composites

“…At higher speeds, shear force has a stronger influence on the material, and the temperature rise improves material plasticity, reducing grain aggregation and further refining the grains. The most substantial reduction in grain size is observed when increasing the milling speed from 200 rpm to 400 rpm under the same milling duration [7]. Simultaneously, the size and distribution of Ag@rGO also change significantly.…”

Physical Properties of Graphene

“…Spontaneous melting of graphene occurs at a temperature known as T*m of 4900 K, providing an upper limit of Tm for graphene. Nucleation theory can explain the melting of bulk graphene, allowing for an unambiguous definition of the Tm, which is 4510 K, approximately 250 K higher than that of graphite and currently the highest of all materials [93].…”
