Materials management deals with the research, development, manufacturing and processing of raw and industrial materials. Key aspects here are biological and medical issues, which play an increasingly important role in this field.
innovations-report offers in-depth articles related to the development and application of materials and the structure and properties of new materials.
A new study led by the Flatiron Institute’s Aavishkar Patel has identified a mechanism that explains the unusual behavior of strange metals, considered one of the greatest open challenges in…
Rice lab discovers commonly used nanoparticles are cousins of original buckyballs. Rice University chemists have discovered that tiny gold “seed” particles, a key ingredient in one of the most common…
Researchers at the University of Bayreuth, together with partners in China and the USA, have produced an oxide glass with unprecedented toughness. Under high pressures and temperatures, they succeeded in…
A new technique developed at Columbia offers a systematic evaluation of twist angle and strain in layered 2D materials. Think you know everything about a material? Try giving it a…
Systems in the Universe trend toward disorder, with only applied energy keeping the chaos at bay. The concept is called entropy, and examples can be found everywhere: ice melting, campfire…
Macquarie University engineers have developed a new technique to make the manufacture of nanosensors far less carbon-intensive, much cheaper, more efficient, and more versatile, substantially improving a key process in…
