A University of Minnesota-led team has developed a first-of-its-kind, breakthrough method that makes it easier to create high-quality metal oxide thin films out of “stubborn” metals that have historically been difficult to synthesize in an atomically precise manner.
An MIT-led team reports a simple, inexpensive way to strengthen a material key to applications in aerospace and nuclear energy generation.
This video from Artisan Makes explain how to harden some low carbon steel in order to raise the carbon content for quench hardening.
Sandia National Labs performs stress corrosion cracking research and development because of the increasing need to ensure design quality and fidelity of spent nuclear fuel dry storage canisters. Robust research leads to enhanced predictions of where and when stress corrosion cracking may occur. In addition to aiding in the prediction of stress corrosion cracks, Sandia […]
Powders produced by way of the sol-gel route. The sol structure can be in either an aggregated or dispersed structure, so varying degrees or particle alignments are obtained when the conversion to a gel takes place.
