Previous research into lightweight steel has focused on mixing in aluminum in varying proportions to attempt to reduce the density, and therefore the weight. Unfortunately, upping the aluminum content ...

A research team led by Professor Jong Sung Yu of the Department of Energy Science and Engineering at DGIST has developed a ...

Scientists have devised a new metal alloy, made by mixing titanium and gold, that could lead to a revolution in how prosthetics are designed. The rest of this article is behind a paywall. Please sign ...

A new alloy made from chromium, molybdenum, and silicon - three metals known for strength, heat tolerance, stability - breaks ...

Although steel has been the workhorse of the automotive industry since the 1920s, the share by weight of steel and iron in an average light vehicle is now gradually decreasing, from 68.1 per cent in ...

Hydrogen, a clean fuel, is incredibly dense in energy -- three times more than diesel or gasoline. Its ability to power a sustainable future has been hindered by a lack of high performing catalysts.

To material scientists the phrase "ductile intermetallic compounds" has long been considered an oxymoron. Although these compounds possess chemical, physical, electrical, magnetic, and ...

An intermetallic compound is a compound of specific composition between two metallic species. On a binary phase diagram, regions associated by these compounds are bounded by two phase zones. The range ...
