Researchers recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped defect in layered polymers, uncovering how solvents can diffuse through layers and produce color changes. Dr. Edwin L. Thomas, professor in the ...
When we talk about defects, we generally think of flaws or impairments. However, as far as materials science is concerned, defects represent windows of opportunity. A new Collaborative Research Center ...
A new study uncovers revealing insights into how plastic materials used in electronics are formed, and how hidden flaws in their structure could be limiting their performance. Subscribe to our ...
The UMass Amherst-led team challenges the conventional wisdom that perfect fillers are better for making thermally conductive polymers AMHERST, Mass. — In the quest to design the next generation of ...
Self-lubricating nickel mold with nano-fillers enables defect-free polymer microstructure production
New nickel-PTFE nanocomposite mold integrates lubricating particles directly into the matrix, achieving over 1,500 defect-free molding cycles without coatings for microfluidic devices. (Nanowerk News) ...
