The size of an oxide's particles is very important to the structure, size, and other properties of a substance.
Temperature, pH, and time are just a few examples of process factors that can and should be adjusted [38].

The main reason for lower densities of the compacts in our experiment is the absence of the binder, which strongly affects the pressing procedure [19].
Hopefully, this does not affect the peak of the distribution.
Corresponding relative changes in volume (and density) are of the same order.The expression obtained for the deformation rate ˙ε by Coble [23] is very similar to Eq. 1 except for a numeric factor and a slightly different dependence on the crystallite size d.

According to the design mixing ratio in Table 1, test cubes of 150 × 150 × 150 are fabricated (standard recommended sizes of φ100 × 100 and φ200 × 100 are not used mainly because that if the standard recommended sizes are used, due to the constraint of the cylindrical sidewall, the side face of the shaped specimen often has significant defects, which will affect the test results).
Due to higher activity of the slag powder, the active ingredients (activated aluminum and silicon in glass state) in the slag powder react with the hydration product of the cement (referred to as secondary reaction), generating hydrated silicic acid with cementitious properties and hydrated calcium aluminate cementitious substance on the surface, which fill the cement pores and improve the concrete density, simultaneously reduce the amount of Ca (OH)2 in the cement paste, form C-S-H gels, weaken the preferred orientation of Ca (OH)2, increase the density of the interface transition zone, and improve the structure and micro-mechanical properties of the interface transition zone; in addition, the slag powder is of small particles, with larger specific surface area and stronger adsorbing and curing abilities for chloride ions, the slag powder also contains a large amount of calcium and aluminum phases, the hydrated calcium aluminate produced in the hydration can combine with the chlorine ions

In every country, energy is one of the significant factors for the economic development and plays as the important role in economic activities [7].
In particular German mechanical engineering products, vehicles, and chemicals are highly valued internationally.
This indicates that economic growth is one of the important factors to determine the progress of FDI in Germany.
Moreover, the high-skilled labor force yielding the good productivity is one of vital factors for Germany that many foreign investors make a decision as the investment location.
FDI is as one of the driven factors of economy in Germany.

Corrosion is the destruction or damage to property due to reacting to its environment [1], one of which is atmospheric corrosion.
Corrosion is the main factor causing premature failure of much of the equipment and infrastructure to be in corrosive operating environments [2],[3] [4].
Exposure testing only considers the weight loss variable, assuming that all atmospheric corrosion factors are represented in the form of mass loss.
The high rainfall that occurred at the study site, as well as humidity, greatly affects the level of corrosion that occurs in 5 (five) types of steel construction, as shown in Fig 9 above.

Differentiating the above equation with respect to strain gives i CA i CA d l M d ε ρ b = + (2) where +i CAdρ is the increase in dislocation density as a result of a change in strain ( i CAdε ) at a CA cell, M is the Taylor factor (=3.1 for f.c.c. metals) and i is the property of the CA cell expressed in terms of microstructural features such as grain interiors, grain boundaries, carbide particles etc.
The simulation is not affected as the macro variables in each FE drive the CA associated with it and act independently of the neighbouring CA arrays.

In this research, due to its commercially available, easy-to-process, high mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties, polysulfone has been selected as the coating material [18].
Researchers have made great efforts to improve the properties of nanofibers.
The antibacterial properties of the PSU-Nf-AgNPs were explored against Gram-negative, Gram-positive bacteria, and model biofilm bacterium (Fig. 4).
This result clearly claimed antibacterial properties in PSU-Nf-AgNPs due to the surface-functionalized AgNPs on the nanofiber membranes.
Thus, acid corrosion was not a contributing factor in this work.

Introduction Single crystal nickel-base superalloys are widely used as turbine blades components in aero and industrial gas turbines since they combine good mechanical properties with microstructural stability at relatively high temperature [3].
Spallation depends on many factors such as surface roughness, surface preparation, material composition, but also cycle duration.
Cycle frequency can affect Al loss in the coating due to oxidation if it affects spallation.
