Metallic glasses were borne out from rapid cooling experiments with binary metallic alloys in the late 1950s at the California Institute of Technology under the aegis of Pol Duwez. The idea was to quench molten metal mixtures very rapidly and thereby bypass crystallization of the liquid alloy.

What is tensile testing? Find out how tensile testing can determine how something will react when it is pulled apart and the key applications.
Compression tests are used to determine how a product or material reacts when it is compressed. From simple test stand and gauge combinations up to fully computer-controlled systems, Mecmesin compression testing machines offer varying grades of sophistication at an affordable price.
In this paper, we have focused our attention on the photoluminescence studies of ZnO films at different deposition parameters. The films show the luminescent properties in UV, green-yellow, orange, and red regions.
In this paper, effect of metallic aluminum as a grinding additive on high-energy milling and sintering is investigated. Effect of sintering additives on sintering is also investigated in conjunction with the superplasticity.
