Chen, Y.-H.: A comprehensive in situ spectroscopic study of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole as a corrosion inhibitor for copper. Dissertation, Fakultät für Chemie und Biochemie der Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum, Germany (2018)
Scientists of the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung pioneer new machine learning model for corrosion-resistant alloy design. Their results are now published in the journal Science Advances
Atom probe tomography (APT) is one of the MPIE’s key experiments for understanding the interplay of chemical composition in very complex microstructures down to the level of individual atoms. In APT, a needle-shaped specimen (tip diameter ≈100nm) is prepared from the material of interest and subjected to a high voltage. Additional voltage or laser…
Crystal Plasticity (CP) modeling [1] is a powerful and well established computational materials science tool to investigate mechanical structure–property relations in crystalline materials. It has been successfully applied to study diverse micromechanical phenomena ranging from strain hardening in single crystals to texture evolution in…
Decarbonisation of the steel production to a hydrogen-based metallurgy is one of the key steps towards a sustainable economy. While still at the beginning of this transformation process, with multiple possible processing routes on different technological readiness, we conduct research into the related fundamental scientific questions at the MPIE.
Ever since the discovery of electricity, chemical reactions occurring at the interface between a solid electrode and an aqueous solution have aroused great scientific interest, not least by the opportunity to influence and control the reactions by applying a voltage across the interface. Our current textbook knowledge is mostly based on mesoscopic…
