Abstract Scope |
The urgent need to replace toxic hard chromium coatings has led the MOZART project to propose nickel-matrix nanocomposite coatings, which provide high corrosion and wear resistance without harmful environmental impacts. However, these coatings typically rely on boric acid, which conflicts with EU REACH standards. Our approach leverages a Conditional Variational Autoencoder to map the latent space of potential molecular alternatives, with Genetic Algorithms guiding the search to regions likely to yield safe and sustainable substitutes. Additionally, we assess the importance of molecular representation to improve model training. This innovative use of machine learning to optimize latent space demonstrates a powerful pathway for sustainable materials discovery in manufacturing. |
