Scope |
All the articles on advanced materials and any materials in specific environments or under extreme conditions are welcome. The advanced materials may include (but not limit to) high entropy alloy, clean energy materials (wind power, solar, hydrogen, battery/fuel cell and nuclear energy and so on), sensor materials, smart materials, medical materials, functional materials, etc. The specific media mainly include (but not limit to) body fluid, seawater, soil, polluted atmosphere, wastewater, industry service environments, and any media in the field of clean energy systems, etc.
The symposium will be focused on the following topics:
(1). Extended applications of advanced characterization techniques, e.g., scanning electrochemical microscopy, electrochemical impedance microscopy, Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), etc..
(2). Deepened understandings of corrosion mechanisms and degradation processes, e.g., selective dissolution and passivation of high entropy alloys, response of smart materials to the change of corrosive media, etc.
(3). Recent developments of testing and monitoring methods to measure and protect the degradation of materials/device in specific and extreme conditions, e.g., for hydrogen production, in nuclear plants.
Submissions on the topics relevant to these themes are also welcome. |
