There is a near-infinite number of material candidates out there—and simply not enough time to hunker down in the lab and ...

Composite materials are engineered by fusing different materials, typically consisting of a matrix (a polymer, metal, or ceramic) and a reinforcement (such as fibers, particles, or flakes) that ...

Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are made by reinforcing a polymer-based matrix with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are classified into thermosetting and thermoplastic resins based on the type ...

Tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) are fundamental in the field of medical imaging, where they serve as crucial phantoms for calibration, quality assurance, ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation & Infrastructure. Discovering new materials with customizable and optimized properties, driven either by ...

Refractory materials, recognised for their exceptional resistance to heat and corrosive environments, are critical to many high‐temperature industrial processes. Their ability to withstand extreme ...
