The elastic properties of nickel beryllide have been evaluated from room temperature to 1000 °C. The room temperature modulus is measured to be 186 GPa, which is relatively low by comparison with other B2 aluminides such as NiAl and CoAl. Hardness measurements were carried out on specimens that had compositions over the range from 49 to 54 at. % Be, using both a Vickers microhardness tester and a nanoindentor. It was found that the hardness of NiBe exhibits a minimum at the equiatomic composition. This behavior is similar to that of aluminides of the same crystal structure, e.g., NiAl and CoAl. The effect of interstitial oxygen on the hardness of NiBe has also been studied and the results show that the presence of oxygen in NiBe can cause a significant increase in hardness. It is demonstrated that the hardness increase for the off-stoichiometric compositions is primarily caused by interstitial oxygen and can only be attributed partially to anti-site defects generated in off-stoichiometric compositions. Nickel beryllides appear to have some intrinsic room temperature ductility, as evidenced by the absence of cracking near hardness indentations.

Aluminum-rich intermetallic compounds of the Al3X-type with transmission metals (X = Ti. Zr, Nb, V) of Groups IVb and Vb are of interest in the development of novel high-temperature and lightweight structural materials. This article describes the important physical and mechanical properties of trialuminides with DO22 structure and their L12 variations. Topical coverage includes: crystal structure and selected physical properties, plastic deformation, oxidation behavior, and applications.

The development of new bio-based inks is a stringent request for the expansion of additive manufacturing towards the development of 3D-printed biocompatible hydrogels. Herein, methacrylated carboxymethyl cellulose (M-CMC) is investigated as a bio-based photocurable ink for digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. CMC is chemically modified using methacrylic anhydride. Successful methacrylation is confirmed by 1H NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Aqueous formulations based on M-CMC/lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate (LAP) photoinitiator and M-CMC/Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM)/LAP show high photoreactivity upon UV irradiation as confirmed by photorheology and FTIR. The same formulations can be easily 3D-printed through a DLP apparatus to produce 3D shaped hydrogels with excellent swelling ability and mechanical properties. Envisaging the application of the hydrogels in the biomedical field, cytotoxicity is also evaluated. The light-induced printing of cellulose-based hydrogels represents a significant step forward in the production of new DLP inks suitable for biomedical applications.
