Martensitic stainless steels (MSS) play a critical role in demanding energy applications—from fusion reactors and offshore infrastructure to emerging hydrogen technologies. But under extreme conditions, such as intense magnetic fields and neutron irradiation, their microstructure can evolve, affecting performance, reliability, and service life. Our latest research explores how cryogenic processing (CP) can enhance the microstructural stability of MSS EN X17CrNi16-2 and improv

I am delighted to share that our latest research Enhanced Corrosion Resistance of Next Generation Martensitic Stainless Steel for Future Energy Sector has been accepted for publication in Corrosion Science Elsevier. 🥼 🥽 ➡️ Link to full article: https://lnkd.in/eZHgBHhe 🔔 In this work, cryogenic processing (CP) is explored as a sustainable and innovative approach to enhance the corrosion resistance of metallic materials for demanding energy-sector applications, including fu

Our latest research Magnesium Alloy Biomaterials: Innovative Engineering Solutions for Future Biodegradable Implant Materials published in JMR&T (Elsevier) explores exactly this how deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) influences the microstructure, corrosion behaviour, and mechanical properties of Mg-Gd alloys. Magnesium-based alloys continue to attract significant attention as next-generation materials for temporary orthopaedic and cardiovascular implants due to their excellent b

Excited to share our latest research on biomedical CoCrMo alloys and the potential of deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) to improve implant performance published in @Corrosion Science (Elsevier). 🦴 🩻 🥼 Cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloys are widely used in orthopaedic joint replacement implants because of their excellent mechanical strength and biocompatibility. However, challenges such as corrosion, wear, long-term durability, and metal ion release still remain critica

What a fantastic day hosting colleagues Dr. Ronja Anton and Dr.-Ing. Gözde Alkan from German Aerospace Center (DLR)! 🚀 It was a pleasure to welcome such an inspiring duo and exchange ideas on innovation, research, and future collaboration opportunities. The discussions were insightful, engaging, and a great reminder of the value of strong partnerships across research institutes. A big thank you to Matic Jovičević-Klug and Dennis Klapproth who contributed to making the visit
