ORNL has developed a new hybrid membrane to improve electrochemical stability in next-generation sodium metal anodes.
Technologies are described directed to reducing weld additive part distortion with spot compressions integrated into the build process. The disclosed technologies can be used to make weld additive parts with potentially better geometrical accuracy.
Complex protective casings and housings are necessary for many applications, including combustion chambers of gas turbines used in aerospace engines. Manufacturing these components from forging and/or casting as a whole is challenging, costly, and time-consuming.
Free-standing, thin films were fabricated with a binder resulting in nearly an order of magnitude thickness decrease while increasing porosity and activation energy. These effects of such diminished significantly. Free-standing films could be fabricated with a binder.
Compliance in a part, work holding, or base plate is beneficial for certain processes, but detrimental for machining and material removal.
