Standardised methods need validation. The main validation parameters like trueness, repeatability and intermediate precision and reproducibility are presented. Furthermore, different methods for the validation are disussed: (certified) reference materials, representative testing materials and interlaboratory comparisons. At last, the need of proficiency testing is stressed.
The main properties and main methods which are needed for the physico-chemical characterisation of graphene related 2D materials are discussed. As expample for standardization, protocols for the measurement of the chemical composition with XPS are discussed. The results of an interlaboratory comparisons led to new recommendations for the reliable measurments protocols.
Interlaboratory comparisons (ILCs) are an important tool for the validation of characterisation methods, and, herwith, a prerequisite for standardisation. The "Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards" offers a framework for performing such ILCs: (i) TiO2 nanoparticles using ToF-SIMS, and (ii) the chemical composition of functionalized graphene using XPS. The results of both ILCs underline the importance of sample preparation for the measured results.

Wasserstoff als Energieträger gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung. Die Untersuchung von Störfallauswirkungen mit Wasserstoff rückt somit stärker in den Fokus. Da Wasserstoff meist unter Druck gelagert und transportiert wird, ist ein zu betrachtendes Szenario die Freisetzung aus einer Leckage mit anschließender Zündung. Die daraus resultierende Freistrahlflamme (Jet Flame) muss hinsichtlich der in die Umgebung emittierten Wärmestrahlung charakterisiert werden. In der Literatur existieren bereits verschiedene Modelle ([1], [2]), welche jedoch vermehrt auf Daten aus Kohlenwasserstoffflammen mit geringem Impuls basieren. Zur Überprüfung dieser Modelle wird im Zuge des BAM internen H2 Jet Flame Projektes die sicherheitstechnische Untersuchung von impulsbehafteten Wasserstoff Freistrahlflammen vorgenommen. Hierfür finden Versuche im Realmaßstab auf dem Testgelände Technische Sicherheit der BAM (BAM-TTS) statt. Gegenstand der Untersuchungen ist die Beurteilung der Auswirkungen von realistischen Freisetzungsszenarien hinsichtlich der Flammengeometrie und der freigesetzten Wärmestrahlung. Dabei werden Parameter wie Freisetzungswinkel, Leckagedurchmesser (z.Zt. 1 mm bis 10 mm), Druck (z.Zt. bis max. 250 bar) und Massenstrom (bis max. 0,5 kg/s) variiert. Zusätzlich können auch Einflüsse wie Art der Zündung, Zündort sowie Zündung mit zeitlichem Verzug untersucht werden. Gewonnene Erkenntnisse werden mit den Ergebnissen bereits vorhandener Modelle verglichen und diese im Bedarfsfall weiterentwickelt. Insbesondere wird der Fokus auf die Modellierung der freigesetzten Wärmestrahlung von Wasserstoffflammen gelegt. Herausforderung dabei stellt die IR-Vermessung und Modellierung von Sichtmodellen der Flammen dar. Die Visualisierung der Flammengeometrie wird mit Hilfe mehrerer Infrarot Kamerasystemen (aus mindestens zwei Blickwinkeln) vorgenommen.
Bisherige Messungen, die in der Literatur zu finden sind, basieren meist auf instationären Auströmbedingungen. Der hier verwendete Versuchsaufbau ermöglicht ein stationäres Ausströmen für mehrere Minuten und somit eine direkte Vergleichbarkeit mit den existierenden (stationären) Modellen.
Weiterhin ist der Versuchsstand umrüstbar für Vergleichsmessungen mit Kohlenwasserstoffen (Methan etc.) sowie Mischungen aus Wasserstoff und Kohlenwasserstoffen.
Die additive Fertigung mittels Schweißverfahren bietet große ökonomische Vorteile für eine ressourceneffiziente Bauteilherstellung. Offene Fragen bezüglich Homogenität, Anisotropie der Schweißgefüge und den damit verbundenen Bauteileigenschaften stehen einer wirtschaftlichen Verarbeitung oftmals im Wege. Finale Bauteilgeometrie und Oberflächengüte erfordern meist komplementäre subtraktive Fertigungsschritte. Werkstoffe für hochbelastbare Komponenten sind oftmals schwer spanbar. In einem Vorhaben der BAM und des ISAF wurde untersucht, wie die Modifikation der AM-Schweißzusätze und das ultraschallunterstützte Fräsen (US) die Zerspanungssituation verbessern. Der vorliegende Artikel stellt wesentliche Zusammenhänge zwischen Legierung, Gefüge und Zerspanung zweier schwer spanbarer Hochleistungslegierungen (FeNi und CoCr) dar. Großes Potenzial zeigte neben dem US die Modifikation mit Zr und Hf bei Zulegierung in das Schweißgut mittels Beschichtung von Massivdrähten bzw. Herstellung von Fülldrähten.
Optical glasses and glass ceramics are present in many devices often used in our daily routine, such as the mobile phones and tablets. Since the 1960´s with the development of glass lasers, and more recently, within the search for efficient W-LEDs, sensors and solar converters, this class of materials has experienced extreme research progress. In order to tailor a material for such applications, it is very important to understand and characterize optical properties such as refractive index, transmission window, absorption and emission cross sections, quantum yields, etc. These properties can often be tuned by appropriate compositional choice and post-synthesis processing. In this lecture we will discuss the optical properties of glasses and glass ceramics, relevant to that end.

The digital era has led to a significant increase in innovation in scientific research across diverse fields and sectors. Evolution of data-driven methodologies lead to a number of paradigm shifts how data, information, and knowledge is produced, understood, and analyzed. High profile paradigm shifts in the field of materials science (MS) include exploitative usage of computational tools, machine learning algorithms, and high-performance computing, which unlock novel avenues for investigating materials. In these presentations, we highlight prototype solutions developed in the context of the Platform MaterialDigital (PMD) project that addresses digitalization challenges. As part of the Material Digital Initiative, the PMD supports the establishment of a virtual materials data space and a systematic handling of hierarchical processes and materials data using a developed ontological framework as high priority work items. In particular, the mid-level ontology PMDco and its augmentation through application-specific ontologies are illustrated. As part of the conclusion, a discussion encompasses the evolutionary path of the ontological framework, taking into account standardization efforts and the integration of modern AI methodologies such as natural language processing (NLP). Moreover, demonstrators illustrated in these presentations highlight: The integration and interconnection of tools, such as digital workflows and ontologies, Semantic integration of diverse data as proof of concept for semantic interoperability, Improved reproducibility in image processing and analysis, and Seamless data acquisition pipelines supported by an ontological framework. In this context, concepts regarding the application of modern research data management tools, such as electronic laboratory notebooks (ELN) and laboratory information management systems (LIMS), are presented and elaborated on. Furthermore, the growing relevance of a standardized adoption of such technologies in the future landscape of digital initiatives is addressed. This is supposed to provide an additional basis for discussion with respect to possible collaborations.
Im Projekt GlasDigital sollen digitale Werkzeuge für die Hochdurchsatzentwicklung neuartiger Glaswerkstoffe erarbeitet werden. Dies soll durch die Kombination robotischer Syntheseverfahren mit selbstlernenden Maschinen und ihre Einbindung in eine Ontologie-basierte digitale Infrastruktur realisiert werden.
Glasses stand out by their wide and continuously tunable chemical composition and large variety of unique shaping techniques making them a key component of modern high technologies. Glass development, however, is still often too cost-, time- and energy-intensive. The use of robotic melting systems embedded in an ontology-based digital environment is intended to overcome these problems in future.
For this purpose, a robotic high throughput glass melting system is equipped with novel inline sensors for process monitoring, machine learning (ML)-based, adaptive algorithms for process monitoring and optimization, novel tools for high throughput glass analysis and ML-based algorithms for glass design. This includes software tools for data mining as well as property and process modelling. The presentation provides an overview of how all these tools merge into a digital infrastructure and illustrates their usability using examples.
All infrastructural parts were developed by a consortium consisting of the Fraunhofer ISC in Würzburg, the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena (OSIM), the Clausthal University of Technology (INW) and the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM, Division Glasses) as part of a joint project of the German research initiative MaterialDigital.
Digital Transformation in Materials Science: Insights From the Platform MaterialDigital (PMD)

Gläser zeichnen sich durch eine breite und kontinuierlich abstimmbare chemische Zusammensetzung sowie einzigartige Formgebungstechniken aus, was sie oft zur Schlüsselkomponente moderner Hochtechnologien macht. Die Glasentwicklung ist jedoch oft noch zu kosten-, zeit- und energieintensiv. Der Einsatz von robotergestützten Schmelzsystemen, eingebettet in eine Ontologie-basierte digitale Umgebung, soll diese Probleme in Zukunft überwinden. Im Rahmen der BMBF Forschungsinitiative MaterialDigital unternimmt das Verbundprojekt GlasDigital „Datengetriebener Workflow für die beschleunigte Entwicklung von Glas“ erste Schritte in diese Richtung. Das Projektkonsortium, an dem das Fraunhofer ISC in Würzburg, die Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena (OSIM), die Technische Universität Clausthal (INW) und die Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM, Fachgruppe Glas) beteiligt sind, will alle wesentlichen Basiskomponenten für eine beschleunigte datengetriebene Glasentwicklung zusammenführen. Zu diesem Zweck wird ein robotergestütztes Hochdurchsatz-Glasschmelzsystem mit neuartigen Inline-Sensoren zur Prozessüberwachung, auf maschinellem Lernen (ML) basierenden adaptiven Algorithmen zur Prozessüberwachung und -optimierung, neuartigen Werkzeugen für die Hochdurchsatz-Glasanalyse sowie ML-basierten Algorithmen zum Glasdesign, Data Mining sowie Eigenschafts- und Prozessmodellierung ausgestattet. Der Vortrag gibt einen Überblick darüber, wie all diese Komponenten miteinander verzahnt sind, und veranschaulicht ihre Nutzbarkeit anhand einiger Beispiele.

When it comes to dental treatments, success is not only measured by attained functionality but, to a large extent, the associated aesthetics. This can become challenging for certain restorations and implants due to the complex optical characteristic of a tooth, which reflects, absorbs, diffuses, transmits, and even emits light. Thus, to get acceptable aesthetic results, favourable shade matching of ceramic restorations and implants should be achieved by strict control of optical response, which translates into a materials design question. Optical response is affected by several factors such as the composition, crystalline content, porosity, additives, grain size and the angle of incidence of light on the dental ceramics. The properties to be characterized are colour (and its stability), translucency, opalescence, refractive index, and fluorescence. Several techniques can be applied for the characterization of these properties and in this presentation, an overview will be given. Moreover, particular emphasis will be given on the capacitation of less familiarized public to UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence (PLE) spectroscopies that are versatile and widely employed for functional and structural characterization of glasses and glass ceramic materials.

The research carried out at the Laboratory of Spectroscopy of Functional Materials at IFSC/USP, in Brazil, is focused on the synthesis and structural-property correlation of luminescent materials including rare-earth (RE) doped glasses, ceramics and hybrid host-guest materials. For the past five years, we have been particularly interested in the development of single- and multifunctional nanosystems based on core-shell upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP) associated with dyes, organometallic complexes and other organic molecules, for biophotonic and sensing applications. In these systems, we take advantage of energy transfer between the UCNPs and the molecules to either supress or enhance luminescent response. Examples include the possibility of bioimaging and photodynamic therapy of bacteria and cancer cells, simultaneous magnetothermia and thermometry, localized O2 sensing, fast detection and quantification of biological markers (e.g. kidney disease) and microorganisms. On what concerns the development of luminescent sensors - a recently started project, our aim is to develop paper-based platforms for point-of-care devices. In this presentation, an overview of our contributions for the past years and our future aims will be presented with several examples.
Recently, detection and conversion of high energy radiation such as ultraviolet and X-rays has gained renewed attention. In part, technological applications in radioimaging and tomography have developed considerably as to allow lower dosages and higher resolutions, which require optimized scintillators and dosimeters. On the other hand, the increasing effort to reduce carbon footprint in energy production has triggered an intensive search for materials that can be excited with sunlight, ranging from photocatalysts to solar concentrators. At LEMAF – Laboratory of Spectroscopy of Functional Materials at IFSC/USP, we have been developing bulk glasses, polycrystalline and composite materials designed to target both challenges and, in this work an overview of recent progresses and of the state of art of these materials will be given.
For instance, the few available comercial scintillators are crystalline materials with costly and time consuming growth which hinders the development of new compositions. Glasses and glass ceramics, such as the NaPGaW composition developed in our lab, present high density, very good optical properties and high chemical stability which allow them radioluminescent response when doped with low concentrations of Ce3+, Eu3+ and Tb3+ offering a promise as alternatives to crystal scintillators. On the other hand, phosphor in glass (PiG) composites based on the persistent luminescent polycrystalline material Sr2MgSi2O7:Eu2+,Dy3+ (SMSO) embedded into NaPGa glasses offer interesting perspectives for the of UV light into visible, useful for white light generation (lighting), improved harvesting and conversion of solar light when coupled to c-Si PV cells and photocatalysis. These and other examples will be discussed.
The glasses are prepared through the conventional melt quenching technique, followed by controlled heating when glass ceramics are desired. The persistent luminescent phosphor is prepared by the microwave assisted technique (MAS) much faster and with considerable energy consumption reduction than in the usual solid state synthesis. The materials are characterized from the structural, morphological and spectroscopic (optical – UV-Vis, PL, PLE, and structural – NMR, EPR) points of view such that structure-property correlations are constantly sought to feedback synthesis and processing. Fig. 1, illustrates two examples of scintillator glasses doped with Tb3+ and PiG composites doped with Eu2+ and Dy3+.
As the development of optimized glass compositions by traditional trial-and-error methods is laborious, time consuming, and expensive, it is desirable to develop glass compositions based on a fundamental understanding of the glass structure and to establish structure-property relation models. Particularly, when it comes to optical applications of glasses doped with emissive trivalent rare earth ions (RE), the chemical environmental around the ions will have a direct influence on the radiative/non-radiative emission probabilities. The local vibrational environment and the chemical nature of the bonds in the first coordination sphere of the ions can be tailored, to good extent, based on structural information given by magnetic resonance techniques (NMR and EPR), associated to Raman and photophysical characterization. For the past 5 years, while still employed at the University of São Paulo, in Brazil, one of the interests of my research group has been the development of high-density fluoride-phosphate glasses as promising UV and X-ray scintillator materials. The targeted glasses offer a lower vibrational energy, less hygroscopic fluoride environment for the RE ions whereas the phosphate network provides better mechanical and chemical stability than a purely fluoride glass matrix. Different sets of glasses, based on the compositional system (Ba/Sr)F2-M(PO3)3-MF3-(Sc/Y)F3 where M = Al, In, Ga, and the phosphate component is substituted by the fluoride analogue in 10 - 30 mol%, were investigated, using Sc3+, Y3+, and the Eu3+ and Yb3+ dopants, as structural probes. Overall, results show that the desired RE coordination by fluorine, at a given F/P ratio, is proportional to the atomic mass of M (In> Ga> Al) and that the Ga- and In- based systems differ from the Al- one by near absence of P-O-P network linkages. That is, the network structures are dominated by Ga-O-P or In-O-P linkages, as evidenced by 31P MAS-NMR and Raman. These results are nicely corroborated by observation of decreased intensity of the vibronic band in Eu3+-doped glasses and marked increase in excited state lifetime values. Radioluminescence studies were carried out for a series of In-based glasses doped with Ce3+ and Tb3+, yielding intense emissions in the blue and green, respectively, compatible to the spectral region of the highest sensitivity of radiation sensor detectors. The aim of the presentation is to show how powerful the NMR and EPR techniques can be to provide decisive structural information, and to present the research perspectives in my new role as the Head of Division 5.6 – Glass at BAM.
Structure-property correlations in RE-doped fluoride-phosphate glasses sought by NMR, EPR & PL
(2024)
As the development of optimized glass compositions by traditional trial-and-error methods is laborious, expensive, and time consuming, it is desirable to gather fundamental understanding of structure and to develop structure-property relation models, which allow best and faster choices.

Vorstellung OWA VERBATIM
(2024)
Das Risiko von Pfahlfussbeulen ist ein wesentlicher Grund für hohe Pfahlwandstärken bei Monopiles. Das Projekt VERBATIM - Verifikation des Beulnachweises und –verhaltens großer Monopiles zielte darauf ab, Beulphänomene zu untersuchen, die sich sowohl auf die plastischen Verformungen der Pfahlspitze während der Installation als auch auf das Beulen des eingebetteten Pfahls in der Nähe des Seebodens beziehen.
Auf der Basis aufwändiger Versuche wurden numerische Modelle entwickelt und validiert. Dies ermöglicht ein besseres Verständnis des Beulverhaltens, um die Wanddicke zu reduzieren, was Kosteneinsparungen bei der Stahlmenge sowie die Entwicklung sicherer und optimierter Strukturen erlaubt. Die bisherigen Designverfahren konnten die erfolgreiche Installation der Monopiles gewährleisten. Da die Größe von Monopiles jedoch stetig zunimmt, wird die Entwicklung verbesserter Designverfahren für sichere und kostengünstige Fundamente immer wichtiger.

Datenräume als Anker einer digitalen QI ermöglichen nicht nur sicheren und souveränen Datenaustausch sondern bieten auch Potential für neue Geschäftsmodelle.
Low Transformation Temperature (LTT)-Schweißzusätze sind ein innovativer Ansatz, um Eigenspannungen in Schweißnähten zu reduzieren. Dieser Vortrag behandelt neben den Einfluss der LTT-Schweißzusätze auch deren Naht-Ausführungen. Die unterschiedlichen LTT-Nahtgeometrien haben einen signifikanten Einfluss auf den Eigenspannungsabbau in der Schweißnaht und der Wärmeeinflusszone (WEZ).
The thermal history during additive manufacturing of complex components differs significantly from the thermal history of geometrically primitive test specimens. This can result in differences in properties that can lead to different material behavior. In this talk, the concept of representative test specimens is introduced, which enables the transfer of thermal histories from complex geometries to simple geometries, which can lead to better comparability of material properties.
The general term additive manufacturing (AM) encompasses processes that enable the production of parts in a single manufacturing step. Among these, laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB) is one of the most commonly used to produce metal components. In essence, a laser locally melts powder particles in a powder bed layer-by-layer to incrementally build a part. As a result, this process offers immense manufacturing flexibility and superior geometric design capabilities compared to conventional processes. However, these advantages come at a cost: the localized processing inevitably induces large thermal gradients, resulting in the formation of large thermal stress during manufacturing. In the best case, residual stress remains in the final parts produced as a footprint of this thermal stress. Since residual stress is well known to exacerbate the structural integrity of components, their assessment is important in two respects. First, to optimize process parameter to minimize residual stress magnitudes. Second, to study their effect on the structural integrity of components (e.g., validation of numerical models). Therefore, a reliable experimental assessment of residual stress is an important factor for the successful application of PBF-LB. In this context, diffraction-based techniques allow the non-destructive characterization of the residual stress. In essence, lattice strain is calculated from interplanar distances by application of Braggs law. From the known lattice strain, macroscopic stress can be determined using Hooke’s law. To allow the accurate assessment of the residual stress distribution by such methods, a couple of challenges in regard of the characteristic PBF-LB microstructures need to be overcome.
This presentation highlights some of the challenges regarding the accurate assessment of residual stress in PBF-LB on the example of the Nickel-based alloy Inconel 718. The most significant influencing factors are the use of the correct diffraction elastic constants, the choice of the stress-free reference, and the consideration of the crystallographic texture. Further, it is shown that laboratory X-ray diffraction methods characterizing residual stress at the surface are biased by the inherent surface roughness. Overall, the impact of the characteristic microstructure is most significant for the selection of the correct diffraction elastic constants. In view of the localized melting and solidification, no significant gradients of the stress-free reference are observed, even though the cell-like solidification sub-structure is known to be heterogeneous on the micro-scale.
The presentation is divided in two parts. In the first part the significance of mechanical impacts as ignition source for hydrogen containing atmospheres is shown and recent results of a research project evaluating ignition probabilities under different conditions is presented. In the second part future challenges in the field of hydrogen safety are discussed. Finally, the German National Hydrogen Safety Alliance is introduced.
Die thermische Historie beim additiven Aufbau von komplexen Realkomponenten und geometrisch primitiven Prüfkörpern unterscheidet sich signifikant. Daraus können Eigenschaftsunterschiede resultieren, die zu unterschiedlichem Materialverhalten führen können. In diesem Vortrag wird das Konzept repräsentativer Probekörper eingeführt, das eine Übertragung thermischer Historien von komplexen Geometrien auf einfache Geometrien ermöglicht und hierdurch zu einer besseren Vergleichbarkeit der Werkstoffeigenschaften führen soll.
Lecture-like introduction in the topic. Fundamental aspects are discussed: Burning of polymers, fire risks, pyrolysis, combustion in the flame, physical chemistry of ignition, flame spread and steady state burning, flame retardancy mechanisms and groups of flame retardants, fire hazards (smoke, toxic products) and environmental concerns, fire testing.
Bislang wird das Phänomen der orientierten Oberflächenkristallisation kontrovers diskutiert und entsprechende Studien beschränken sich auf nur wenige Gläser. Für Silikatgläser haben wir eine gute Korrelation zwischen der berechneten Oberflächenenergie von Kristallflächen und der orientierten Oberflächenkeimbildung gefunden. Die Oberflächenenergien wurden unter der Annahme abgeschätzt, dass die Kristalloberflächen bei der Keimbildung den Kristallebenen mit minimaler Energie entsprechen, denen ein Riss beim Bruch folgt. Dieses Konzept wurde am Institut für Physik in Rennes erfolgreich bei der Berechnung der Bruchflächenenergien von Gläsern angewandt. Mehrere orientierte Keimbildungsphänomene lassen sich dadurch erklären, dass man annimmt, dass Kristalloberflächen mit hoher Energie dazu neigen, von der Schmelze benetzt zu werden. Dies minimiert die gesamte Grenzflächenenergie des Keims. Darüber hinaus werden wir die Entwicklung der Mikrostruktur beim weiteren Kristallwachstum und ihre Auswirkungen auf die bevorzugte Kristallorientierung diskutieren.
Any surface in the environment acts as hotspot for microbial attachment and activity. These biofilms represent the interface between humans and the environment.
While in the past biofilms were often seen as disturbance, we now start to understand the enormous potential of beneficial biofilms. They can be used in a broad range of applications and are sources for new microorganisms and traits. After all, biofilms represent a great example for a collaborative lifestyle.
