  • Carbon Mechanical Seals
    Article - 26 Feb 2001
    Carbon is often used in mechanical seals for its self lubricating properties. Other beneficial properties include chemical resistance and moderately high operating temperatures.
  • Advanced Materials for Gas Turbine Engines - Fan Blades
    Article - 26 Feb 2001
    Materials such as titanium alloys (Ti6Al4V) and the evolution of turbine blade design are described. Future materials devlopments such as the move to carbon composites are also discussed.
  • An Overview of Biomaterials
    Article - 26 Feb 2001
    The different types of biomaterials and their classifications (inert, active and resorbable) are defined and key properties are given.
  • Hydrogen Damage - Metallic Corrosion
    Article - 22 Feb 2001
    Hydrogen damage occurs when hydrogen gas diffuses into the structure of metallic materials. This may occur in sour gas atmospheres due to the presence of hydrogen sulfide.
  • Corrosion Fatigue - Metallic Corrosion
    Article - 22 Feb 2001
    Fatigue in a corrosive environment constitutes metallic corrosion.
  • Stress Corrosion Cracking - Metallic Corrosion
    Article - 22 Feb 2001
    The effects of residual and applied stresses and corrosive environments in service are closely interrelated.
  • An Introduction to Metallic Corrosion
    Article - 21 Feb 2001
    Corrosion can be defined as the electrochemical reaction of a material with its environment which results in a degradation of the properties of the metal. It is a redox process.
  • Copper Alloys - Brasses
    Article - 7 Feb 2001
    Brasses are alloys of copper and zinc (generally 5 to 40%). They are used for high pressure gas valves, gilding metals, plumbing systems and heat exchangers.
  • Copper and Low Alloyed Coppers
    Article - 7 Feb 2001
    This article provides an overview of pure copper and the major copper low alloyed grades and applications.
  • Copper Alloys - Nickel Silvers

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.
