Making a new material is one thing, explaining how you did it is another. Materials engineering Ph.D. candidate Jerry Howard excels at both. Howard developed a new “recipe” for making metallic glass ...

RALEIGH – Researchers have now demonstrated the ability to create amorphous metal, or metallic glass, alloys using three-dimensional (3-D) printing technology, opening the door to a variety of ...

Metallic glass is an emerging type of material, so its secrets are still being discovered. While working with the stuff, a team of Yale researchers created a brand new type of metallic glass, by ...

If you combine two or three metals together, you will get an alloy that usually looks and acts like a metal, with its atoms arranged in rigid geometric patterns. But once in a while, under just the ...

A new breakthrough in the manufacturing of so called metallic glass, a material that is stronger than steel and titanium, could lead to a new generation of super-tough cell-phone cases and airplane ...

The film discusses the process of powder metallurgy, which involves creating metal parts from metal powders. It explains how metal powders are mixed, compacted under pressure, and subjected to heat to ...

Metal powders are used to produce a variety of industrial parts and products. A number of techniques are used to manufacture parts from metal powders, with two popular techniques being sintering and ...

Spray drying is the name given to the rapid drying process of creating dry powders from liquid slurry. The liquid is typically sprayed with hot gas to accelerate the drying stage, which renders it ...
