Color change provides clue to why materials degrade in space
A camera system on the exterior of the International Space Station (ISS) will be snapping images of more than a dozen different material samples for the next six months. The mission is to gather detailed information that will help researchers determine how and why the harsh conditions of space affect these materials. Among the issues to be studied are color changes that may indicate the degradation caused by exposure to the environment in space.
Microscopy reveals how solar panels fail
A team of researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)—including Stephanie Moffitt, Po-Chang Pan, and Xiaohong Gu (pictured)—set out to help solar panel buyers understand how long the technology will last before it breaks down. Nowadays, 30- to 35-year warranties are the norm for commercial solar panels, but there are concerns that some solar panel materials can show cracks and fail earlier. The NIST team employed various microscopy techniques in their study of the panels.
Committees and Councils
Committees and Councils Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just beginning your career in the materials sciences, ASM members are encouraged to become more deeply involved in the society through committee membership. ASM committees and councils identify emerging trends in member needs and transform them into actionable development opportunities. These groups drive innovation by providing thought […]
