This review paper published in AI & Materials explores the implementation of first-principles calculation method within high-entropy carbides ceramics (HECCs) research, specifically examining its role ...

Ceramics are lightweight and hard, but you can’t make jet engines out of them because they’d shatter like dinner plates. So, materials scientists have been trying to mimic natural materials that ...

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 ...

In a breakthrough that blends ancient design with modern materials science, researchers have developed a new class of ceramic structures that can bend under pressure -- without breaking. In a ...

Researchers have used 3-D printing to create ceramic structures from silicon polymers. Scientists at HRL Laboratories LLC in Malibu, Calif., announced their process overcomes the limitations of ...

While the method of flash sintering can reduce the temperatures and time required to process ceramics in comparison with traditional methods, the technique often ...
