Engineers have spent decades trying to build metals that do not snap, melt, or grind away under extreme conditions, and for a long time the tradeoffs seemed unavoidable. Push strength too far and a ...

BAOJI, SHAANXI PROVINCE, CHINA, January 19, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In an era where industrial performance is ...

Chromium-molybdenum (chrome-moly) pipe has become a standard in the power generation industry, not only because of its corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength, but also for its ...

Researchers at Tohoku University have developed a new technique to identify the initiation sites of a destructive process ...

Refractory metal alloys are known for their distinctive specifications and general properties. Among them is the niobium-based refractory metal alloy C-103, which has a variety of applications in ...

Radiation is famously damaging, both to living tissue and materials. But now, engineers at MIT have been surprised to discover that radiation may actually help certain alloys to self-heal, extending ...

PASADENA (CBS) — Caltech researchers say they've developed a new metal alloy that is stronger than any other metal known to science. Nature Materials, a scientific journal, says the new alloy combines ...

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 ...

Graphite/metal alloy bearings handle harsh environments that lubricated bearings can’t. For example, a grease-filled ball bearing was used on an oven-door latch—but in tests, the bearing seized and ...
