For the first time, researchers have created a nanocomposite of ceramics and a two-dimensional material, opening the door for new designs of nanocomposites with such applications as solid-state ...

These small and strong materials offer a wide frequency range, suiting a variety of applications and specific design needs without sacrificing performance. Electronic engineers are no strangers to odd ...

In this interview, AZoM talks to Dr. Carl Frahme of The American Ceramic Society about his "Introduction to Ceramic Science, Technology, and Manufacturing" course. I have been active in the ceramics ...

Researchers have observed a way that the brittle nature of ceramics can be overcome as they sustain heavy loads, leading to more resilient structures such as aircraft engine blade coatings and dental ...

Everyone with kitchen experience knows how easy it is to break a ceramic plate. Less well known is the capability of some ceramic materials to become soft and pliable when heated. For years, materials ...

Researchers in the US have developed a novel 3D-printed smart composite that enables brittle ceramics to bend, absorb energy, and withstand heavy mechanical loads, while being manufactured at full ...

Ceramics are famous for being hard but easy to break. Now, researchers have demonstrated that adding carbon nanotubes to a ceramic material can nearly triple its resistance to fracturing. Since carbon ...

Professors Michel Barsoum and Yury Gogotsi of the College of Engineering’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering have been jointly awarded the 2020 International Ceramics Prize, the highest ...

The Oxoate Ceramics Research Association of the Ceramic Society of Japan has announced the launch of a major international ...

Thanks to a little inspiration from nature, new ceramics could be made from materials that make them stronger and tougher, researchers have discovered. The new ceramics are inspired bya material ...

Columbus, Ohio – From cutting-edge photovoltaic power generation systems to substrates for repairing or even growing new human tissue, glass-based materials are playing an expanding role in the ...

Ceramics are inorganic materials composed of metallic, nonmetallic, and metalloid components. An industry-relevant property of ceramics are their robustness, and applications include their ...
