Gold nanoparticles-dimethylsiloxane(AuNPs-PDMS) membrane is a novel composite material in biochemical technology an d micro-electro-mechanical system(MEMS) research.It is widely used in biomed ici ne,biochemical detection and en vironmental protection due to its biocompatibility,elasticity and electric char acteristics.In this paper,the characteristics of the composite membrane were d escribed,and four methods for fabricating AuNPs-PDMS composite membranes were reviewed in detail.Besides,the advantages and disadvantages of the four method s were summarized,and the present problems and future researches were proposed.
Zr-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites (BMGMCs) with a composition of Zr60.0Ti14.7Nb5.3Cu5.6Ni4.4- Be10.0 (at%) were fabricated by an innovative process, i.e., semisolid processing plus Bridgman solidification. Different morphologies, distributions, and volume fractions of the crystalline phases can be achieved by tailoring the withdrawal velocity. The largest fi-acture strain of Zr60.0Ti14.7Nb5.3Cu5.6Ni4.4Be10.0 (at%) composites with the withdrawal velocity of 1.0 mm/s was found to be 16.7%. The mechanism of plasticity improvement is mainly attributed to the interpenetrated structure of the crystalline phase, which greatly confines the rapid propagation of shear bands.
