Alloys are a focus of this latest issue with papers on Microstructure and properties of high power-SLM 24CrNiMoY alloy steel at different laser energy density and tempering temperature, Single-step sinter-aging heat treatment of metastable-beta type Ti–Nb–Cu alloy and Influence of starting powders on the final properties of W-Cu alloys manufactured through rapid sinter pressing technique, among others.

Carbon emissions are being captured and converted into construction materials during roof tile production in a UK trial.

UK-based Thermal Recycling has demonstrated the scientific process of denaturing to convert roof sheets containing asbestos into a new material on an industrial scale, which can then be used for aggregates in road building.
