This series of articles is designed to help molders understand how a few analytical tools can help diagnose a part failure. Michael Sepe is our analyst and author. He is the technical director at ...

Physically speaking, glass is a rather unusual material. Most solid materials are significantly ‘ordered’ with their constituent molecules or atoms in a regular arrangement, repeating patterns called ...

A collaborative group from Tohoku University and Johns Hopkins University have provided valuable insights into the glass transition. When a liquid is cooled rapidly, it gains viscosity and eventually ...

The article will outline the characterization of polybutadiene. Glass transition temperature is crucial when considering the material for various applications. The modulus and the damping properties ...

Insights into interface-specific transformations in metallic glass create a path to improved engineering of amorphous ...

The National Science Foundation has awarded $1.65 million to a project led by Washington University in St. Louis physicist Ken Kelton to build an electrostatic levitation chamber that will be ...
