Providing multiple functional roles simultaneously, the composition of seashells and bones gradually vary throughout their structure making them part of a group of materials called Functionally Graded ...
Ceramics often have microstructure and grain sizes that affect material performance. It is possible to optimize microstructure and grain boundaries with ceramic processing parameters for specific ...
The dual-phase interpenetrating architecture was came out from the microstructure of natural materials. Based on the such unique structure, bioinspired P/CCSs was designed and fabricated via 3D ...
This graphic shows the structure of a ceramic created from a Kansas State University-patented waterlike polymer. The ceramic has a random structure that provides stability at high temperatures. The ...
Innovations in High-Performance Materials It feels like every day there’s some new material promising to do things ...
Glass is a material distinguished by its amorphous or non-crystalline microscopic structure. 1 Glasses are typically transparent to visible light, and many are valued for their chemical inertness and ...
