DURHAM, N.C. -- Researchers have discovered a way to predict which alloys will form metallic glasses. The research could pave the way for new strong, conductive materials. Metallic glasses are ...

There are three different types of super alloys; iron-based, cobalt-based and nickel-based. Known for their good oxidation and creep resistance, super alloys can also be strengthened by precipitation ...

A cluster of research programs across U.S. national laboratories and universities is producing new aluminum alloy forms ...

Researchers have discovered a way to predict which alloys will form metallic glasses, materials with numerous desirable properties. The research could pave the way for new strong, conductive materials ...

Super alloys or high performance alloys are used in environments with very high temperature above 540ºC (1000ºF) where deformation resistance and high surface stability are chiefly required. They have ...
