Materials Sciences

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 Misunderstanding Leads to Method for Making Nanowells

The nanowell discovery was made in the labs of Darrell Velegol and Seong Kim by Velegol’s graduate student, Neetu Chaturvedi, and Kim’s graduate student, Erik…

Highly precise nanostructuring using ultrasound: new procedure to produce porous metals

They are characterised by nanostructured surfaces with pores measuring only a few nanometres in diameter. An international research team including Dr Daria…

Penn Physicists Develop Scalable Method for Making Graphene

As explained in a recently published study, a Penn research team was able to create high-quality graphene that is just a single atom thick over 95% of its…

Relaxation leads to lower elasticity

Many materials, when observed over a sufficiently long period of time, show changes in their mechanical properties. The exact course of these developments…

New 'frozen smoke' may improve robotic surgery, energy storage

University of Central Florida Associate Professor Lei Zhai and postdoctoral associate Jianhua Zou have engineered the world's lightest carbon material in such…

Stronger Than Steel, Novel Metals Are Moldable as Plastic

Now a team led by Jan Schroers, a materials scientist at Yale University, has shown that some recently developed bulk metallic glasses (BMGs)-metal alloys that…
