Lead-free solder alloys have been around for as long as people have done soldering, with sources dating back about 5,000 years. Most of these alloys were combinations like copper-silver or silver-gold ...

Researchers from Skoltech and MIPT and their German, Austrian, and Norwegian colleagues have proposed and tested a new method for computer modeling of magnetic alloys. The method, which relies on ...

Electrical conductivity: copper has the highest conductivity of the engineering metals. Silver or other elements may be added to increase strength, softening resistance or other properties without ...

A life sciences joint venture is putting down $365 million to acquire a five-property portfolio in the nation’s top market for lab and life sciences research and development, sources told Commercial ...

When alloys are formed by mixing with solutes, or dissolved substances, the dislocations act as preferred locations for the solutes. The solutes attach to dislocation threads like a swarm of bees, ...

Skoltech and MIPT researchers have sped up the search for high-performance metal alloys for the aerospace industry, ...

High entropy alloys or HEAs consist of five or more different metallic elements and are an extremely interesting class of materials with a great diversity of potential applications. Since the ...

Scientists have successfully developed a super-strong, highly ductile and super-light titanium-based alloy using additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing. Their findings open up a new ...

Alexandria Real Estate Equities has sold five life sciences properties in the Boston area, including one of the first buildings it developed in Cambridge. The REIT sold two buildings in Cambridge and ...

Brasses are divided into two classes. The alpha alloys, with less than 37% zinc, and the alpha/beta alloys with 37-45% zinc. Alpha alloys are ductile and can be cold worked. Alpha/beta or duplex ...
