In his office, MIT Professor of Chemical Engineering Gregory Rutledge keeps a small piece of fabric that at first glance resembles a Kleenex. This tissue-like material, softer than silk, is composed of fibers that are a ...
A clever materials science technique that uses a silicon crystal as a sort of nanoscale vise to squeeze another crystal into a more useful shape may launch a new class of electronic devices that remember their last state even after power is turned off.
For now, scientists at Florida State University (FSU) can only envision what some misoriented atoms are up to along the defects of the new materials that they are developing. They'll finally be able to clearly see ea...
The leading resource for reliable alloy phase diagrams now offers access to more than 30,000 authoritative diagrams, available both as a complete collection and as individual diagrams.
The latest update to the ASM All...
Airbus, the world's leading aircraft manufacturer, its parent company EADS, a global leader in aerospace, defence and related services and the Russian Technologies State Corporation's integrated structure VSMPO-A...
A research team from Northeastern University and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has discovered, serendipitously, that a residue of a process used to build arrays of titania nanotubes-a residue that wasn't even noticed before this-plays an important role in improving the performance of the nanotubes in solar cells that produce hydrogen gas from water.
Nanoparticles of tungsten carbide and tungsten carbide cobalt can enter cultured
mammalian cells. These are the findings of a study conducted by researchers
from the University of Dresden, the Leipzig-based Helmholtz
Centre for Environmental Research and the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic
Technologies and Systems in Dresden.
Engineers at Oregon State University have discovered a way to use an ancient life form to create one of the newest technologies for solar energy, in systems that may be surprisingly simple to build compared to existing s...
In late-August 2008, Pacific Cast Technologies (PCT), an investment casting
foundry located in Albany, Ore., purchased an Air Blast room for their facility.
PCT (acquired by Ladish in 2000) offers precision shell cast technology, in
particular, for titanium investment castings. The company has the technology,
equipment and expertise to cast titanium parts in some of the largest sizes.
A new hard coating with antibacterial properties that has been tested by researchers at the UCL Eastman Dental Institute has been shown to kill 99.9% of Escherichia coli bacteria when a white hospital light was shone on ...
