Refractory cements and raw materials are hard, heat resistant materials that are suitable for applications that require high temperature strength, wear resistance, electrical or thermal insulation, or ...

Boiler tube inserts are also used in methane reformers and waste heat boilers (WHB). Refractory ferrules are made of materials called refractories that have high melting points. Refractories are ...

Materials science and engineering is an interdisciplinary field that forms the foundation for many engineering applications by extending the current supply of materials, improving existing materials, ...

Since its establishment as the world’s first materials science academic department, Northwestern Engineering has led and defined the frontier of material research, enabling transformative technologies ...

All original research published in the journal is in the form of Communication articles. These are exceptionally high-quality and innovative reports that are of significant broad appeal to the ...

An introduction to the structure and properties of important current and future materials, including metals, semiconductors, and polymers from an atomic and molecular perspective. Emphasis will be ...

When treatment doesn’t work, the disease is called refractory. Relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) is a challenge to treat. There’s no strategy that works for everyone. Doctors are ...

This Lectureship recognises early career researchers, typically within 10 years of attaining their PhD or equivalent degree, who have made significant contributions to the field of materials chemistry ...

Shape memory materials are fascinating materials, with potential for application as 'smart materials' and also as new functional materials. This book presents a systematic and up-to-date account of ...

See Choi et al. Electrocaloric effects are large in a limited set of materials that display hysteretic first-order phase transitions. Here epitaxial SrTiO3 thin films are strain engineered to ...

Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan discusses the state of the city, and the financial hub’s efforts to diversify the economy. He speaks on the sidelines of the APIC World Pension Summit on ...
