Half-metals are unique magnetic compounds that have been attracting interest in the developments of mass-storage technologies. Some of the materials in the family of Heusler alloys were predicted to ...

In a world of 8 billion people, there's one thing that makes each of us unique: our fingerprints. A variety of genetic and ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University and Qatar University have developed a new “high-entropy” metal alloy that has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than any other existing metal material.

For the first time, scientists have watched metal crystals take shape inside a pool of molten metal, capturing a process that ...

A subzero ice recrystallization route creates multimetal high entropy aerogels and coatings with uniform element mixing, offering a low temperature path to porous macroscopic alloy structures.

In recent years, those supplying metal parts to the medical device industry have recorded outstanding gains in the quality of their performance. With the emergence of statistical process control, ISO ...

Bronzes are copper alloys containing various amounts of tin, zinc and other metals whose presence alter the alloy's melting temperature, the strength and hardness of the sculpture, its resistance to ...

A Swedish plano-convex ingot once thought to be from the Bronze Age was revealed through chemical and isotopic testing to ...
