At 58 stories tall, Comcast Center in Philadelphia recently became the tallest LEED-certified building in the United States with an assist from energy-saving Solarban 60 Starphire glass by PPG Industries (NYSE:PPG).
Single crystals of the mineral calcite -- the chief material in limestone -- are predictable, homogeneous and, well, a little boring. But scientists have long marveled at how biological crystals of calcite grow together with other organic materials to form, for example, shells and sea urchin spines.
For 100,000's of thousands of US Citizens living with toxic Chinese drywall, this will not be a very good Thanksgiving weekend. According to Americas Watchdog's Chinese Drywall Complaint Center," there has n...
CERAM has announced a new Technology Partnership alliance with Morgan Advanced Materials (MTC), a global leader in advanced ceramic materials and component innovations across many technology-led markets including aerospa...
A group of researchers at the City College of New York is developing a new way to generate power for planes and automobiles based on materials known as piezoelectrics, which convert the kinetic energy of motion into elec...
The Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory provides research with pulsed magnetic fields of up to 70 Tesla with great reliability and has thus made a name for itself with scientists from all over the world. This time guest researchers from Garching, Bavaria, came to perform measurements. Professor Rudolf Gross' research group brought with them optimally prepared samples of a complex cuprate - a compound of copper, oxygen and other elements - in order to finally confirm or debunk contradictory theoretical concepts on the nature of high-temperature superconductors.

Goodrich Corporation's (NYSE: GR) Aircraft Wheels and Brakes business has been selected by flydubai to supply wheels and carbon brakes for its new fleet of 54 Boeing Next-Generation 737-800 aircraft. The selection is...
Johns Hopkins materials scientists have found a new use for a chemical compound that has traditionally been viewed as an electrical conductor, a substance that allows electricity to flow through it. By orienting the compound in a different way, the researchers have turned it into a thin film insulator, which instead blocks the flow of electricity, but can induce large electric currents elsewhere.

By orienting the compound in a different way, the researchers have turned it into a thin film insulator, which instead blocks the flow of electricity, but can induce large electric currents elsewhere. The material, called solution-deposited beta-alumina, could have important applications in transistor technology and in devices such as electronic books.
