When electronic devices overheat, they can slow down, malfunction, or stop working altogether. This heat is mainly caused by ...

We have ingeniously applied heat treatment technology to facilitate an in-situ reaction between the gas-phase deposited SiO 2 and Yb 2 SiO 5, which is produced from the decomposition of Yb 2 Si 2 ...

We’ve tested SiO’s polysilazane resin on steel and aluminum substrates. The adhesion, thermal resistance, and film integrity exceeded our expectations. A very practical coating material.” — Industrial ...

3D-printed material can off-gas a coolant, which acts as a barrier against heat buildup during descent and atmospheric re-entry.

Learn how important materials are for nuclear energy innovation. Discover how digital modeling is driving nuclear materials ...

In a paper published as an Editor's Pick in Applied Physics Letters, College of Engineering's Georges Pavlidis outlines ways ...

No material on Earth can stand this hellish environment without being seriously damaged. So, the engineers behind these capsules designed a layer of material called a heat shield to be sacrificed ...

This char then acts as a second heat barrier. NASA used the same heat shield design for Orion as the Apollo capsule. But during the Apollo missions, the char structure didn’t break like it did ...
