Journal Article
Simonelli, M., McCartney, D. G., Barriobero-Vila, P., Aboulkhair, N. T., Tse, Y. Y., Clare, A., & Hague, R. (2020). The Influence of Iron in Minimizing the Microstructural Anisotropy of Ti-6Al-4V Produced by Laser Powder-Bed Fusion. Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, 51, 2444–2459. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11661-020-05692-6

There remains a significant challenge in adapting alloys for metal based Additive Manufacturing (AM). Adjusting alloy composition to suit the process, particularly under regimes close to industrial practice, is therefore a potential solution. With th...

Thermal Activation of Electrochemical Seed Surfaces for Selective and Tunable Hydrophobic Patterning (2020)
Journal Article
Speidel, A., Murray, J. W., Bisterov, I., Mitchell-Smith, J., Parmenter, C., & Clare, A. T. (2020). Thermal Activation of Electrochemical Seed Surfaces for Selective and Tunable Hydrophobic Patterning. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 12(6), 7744-7759. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.9b20121

Remarkable interfacial behaviors are observed in nature. Our efforts, directed toward replicating the structures, chemistries, and therefore functional properties of natural nonwetting surfaces, are competing with the result of billions of years of n...
