This study explores a novel WNbMoTaV high-entropy thin film(HETF)in amorphous structure via pulsed laser deposition *** formation of amorphous structure of this high-entropy alloy is ascribed to the high cooling rate during the deposition *** HETF shows a smooth surface with a height fl uctuation of less than 13 *** film has a high electrical resistivity of~320.6μΩ·cm and a low corrosion current density of 0.088μA/cm *** corrosion resistance of the HETF at ambient temperature is superior to the conventional AISI 316 L stainless *** high electrical resistivity and excellent corrosion resistance of the HETF are mainly attributed to its chemical disorder,cocktail effect and homogeneous amorphous *** experimental phenomenon not only provides a basis for the preparation of amorphous alloy films with low glass forming ability by pulsed laser deposition system,also promotes the potential application of WNbMoTaV HETF in the microelectronic components as resistivity sensors.

Pre-polymerized vinyl trimethoxy silane(PVTMS)@MWCNT nano-aerogel system was constructed via radical polymerization,sol-gel transition and supercritical CO_(2)*** fabricated organic-inorganic hybrid PVTMS@MWCNT aerogel structure shows nano-pore size(30-40 nm),high specific surface area(559 m^(2)g^(−1)),high void fraction(91.7%)and enhanced mechanical property:(1)the nano-pore size is beneficial for efficiently blocking thermal conduction and thermal convection via Knudsen effect(beneficial for infrared(IR)stealth);(2)the heterogeneous interface was beneficial for IR reflection(beneficial for IR stealth)and MWCNT polarization loss(beneficial for electromagnetic wave(EMW)attenuation);(3)the high void fraction was beneficial for enhancing thermal insulation(beneficial for IR stealth)and EMW impedance match(beneficial for EMW attenuation).Guided by the above theoretical design strategy,PVTMS@MWCNT nano-aerogel shows superior EMW absorption property(cover all Ku-band)and thermal IR stealth property(ΔT reached 60.7℃).Followed by a facial combination of the above nano-aerogel with graphene film of high electrical conductivity,an extremely high electromagnetic interference shielding material(66.5 dB,2.06 mm thickness)with superior absorption performance of an average absorption-to-reflection(A/R)coefficient ratio of 25.4 and a low reflection bandwidth of 4.1 GHz(A/R ratio more than 10)was experimentally obtained in this work.

This study investigates the physical (density, porosity), mechanical (hardness, compressive strength) and tribological (wear loss, coefficient of friction) properties of aluminium metal matrix composites reinforced by the varied amount of alumina and graphite particles fabricated via the powder metallurgy process. The density increased with the incorporation of alumina and decreased with the incorporation of graphite. The porosity of the composites increased with the increase in of reinforcements due to poor wettability and low compaction pressure during the experiments. The experimental investigations revealed that the hardness and compressive strength increased with an increase in alumina content due to high hardness of alumina particles. Nevertheless, the wear loss and coefficient of friction of the composite decreased with an increase in graphite content due to its lubricating properties. The microstructural study revealed a uniform distribution of reinforcement in the composite, with debonding and wetting occurring at high alumina content. The Taguchi L16 orthogonal array has been utilized to plan and design experiments by selecting different factors (alumina content, graphite content, compaction pressure, compaction time, milling time, load, sliding speed) at four levels. The optimizations of process parameters were done through grey relational analysis.

Thermal comfort is essential for maintaining physiological well-being, with textile materials traditionally serving as the primary medium for regulating heat exchange between the body and its environment. However, conventional textiles often fall short of maintaining optimal thermal balance. So, there is an increasing demand for advanced thermoregulation systems that can effectively reduce heat loss and enhance warmth, ensuring consistent comfort. Recent research has highlighted the promise of advanced functional materials, especially graphene and its composites, for modifying textiles to improve thermal properties. This article comprehensively reviews recent advancements in graphene-functionalized textile composites, focusing on their applications in wearable Joule heaters designed for personalized thermal comfort or thermal therapy. Various graphene-functionalized textile composites are reviewed from the perspectives of material properties, processing strategies and device fabrication methods. Key challenges and future opportunities are summarized for graphene-functionalized textile-based Joule heaters as innovative solutions in wearable thermal regulation.
