How can studying metals manufacturing lead to longer-lasting batteries and lighter vehicles? It all comes down to physics. Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are investigating ...

The periodic table of elements, all 111 of them, just got a little competition. A new discovery by a University of Missouri-Columbia research team, published in Angewandte Chemie allows scientists to ...

Researchers have proposed a theory-based approach to characterize a class of metals that possess exotic electronic properties that could help scientists find other, similarly-endowed materials.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Over the past few decades, scientists have discovered that combining multiple metal elements into a single material can give rise to extraordinary new properties and functions.

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 ...

"Grinding Ferrous Metals" provides an in-depth overview of the considerations involved with grinding various ferrous metal workpiece materials. Ferrous metals’ properties vary widely. This class ...

Researchers determined exactly what happens as crystal grains in metals form during an extreme deformation process, at the tiniest scales, down to a few nanometers across. The findings could lead to ...
