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 j... Read more
Researchers have now demonstrated the ability to create amorphous metal, or metallic glass, alloys on large scales using three-dimensional (3-D) printing technology, opening the door to a va... Read more
The secret is to make it almost – but not quite – unstructured Engineers have created a new material with an unusual chemical structure that makes it incredibly hard and yet elastic. The mat... Read more
Research paves the way for alloys that are 3x stronger than steel yet bend like gum Creating futuristic, next generation materials called ‘metallic glass‘ that are ultra-strong a... Read more
