Researchers have discovered a metallic material with the highest thermal conductivity measured among metals.

Technical ceramics are used in many applications where traditional materials such as steel or plastic are ineffective or unsuitable. For many of these applications, extreme hardness, wear resistance, ...

Inelastic insights: phasons were studied using the HYSPEC spectrometer on Oak Ridge’s Spallation Neutron Source. (Courtesy: ORNL) New insights into the exotic thermal behaviour of phasons – ...

For the first time, scientists have succeeded in precisely controlling temperature-dependent thermal conductivity with the help of polymer materials. These advanced functional materials were initially ...

Researchers created a novel functional composite of gallium with putty or paste-like physical properties. The composite possesses excellent electromagnetic shielding properties as well as thermal ...

Chilled out: Researchers measured the thermal conductivity of Lego bricks near absolute zero, with a Lego “cryonaut” along for the ride. Credit: Credit: Josh Chawner Here at Newscripts, we’ve always ...
