A recently installed 3D ceramics printer offers Penn State materials researchers advanced capabilities to easily produce high-resolution ceramic parts and other innovative ceramics for cutting-edge materials research at a lower cost than sourcing them.
The eutectic structure of metals and ceramics occurs when multiple solid phases solidify from a liquid phase, forming a three-dimensional (3D) pattern through a self-organizing phenomenon.
Researchers at TU Wien (Vienna) have recently designed a new kind of battery technology – the oxygen-ion battery – which is set to revolutionize the face of energy storage.
West Virginia University scientists have created a material that has the ability to decrease the amount of heat that power plants emit into the atmosphere.
Ceramic equipment specialist MLC Machinery has announced a major breakthrough. Having built up an extremely solid reputation with home market customers over the past 25 years, the Alcobaça-based company entered the export market in the last couple of years – and in just this short period has signed contracts worth in excess of €3.5 million. Clients already include world-leading brands in Brazil, Turkey, France, Mexico, and the UK.
Lithoz GmbH, world market and innovation leader in ceramic 3D printing, has confirmed that 2022 has been its most successful year ever in terms of order intake.
Although much of the discourse on reducing vehicle emissions centres on electric vehicles (EV), their sales remain low - with EV vehicles accounting for a mere 1% of car purchases in Japan in 2021.
In an article recently published in the open-access journal Scientific Reports, researchers discussed the removal of lead (II) ions through the synthesis of powdered and beaded chitosan materials treated with ZnO.
In an article recently published in the journal Ceramics International, researchers discussed the foam-gel casting preparation and characteristics of porous ceramics made of high-strength mullite.
A paper recently published in the journal Additive Manufacturing demonstrated freeform injection molding (FIM) of functional ceramics using hybrid additive manufacturing (AM).
