Thermal processing of metals, depending upon the temperature and duration at temperature will produce changes in microstructure, alter residual stress patterns and may reduce composition variations ...

A new way to 3D-print metals makes the materials stronger and more resilient in extreme thermal environments. The technique could lead to 3D printed high-performance blades and vanes for gas turbines ...

The process of heat-treating metals on the industrial scale primarily serves to improve the overall properties of the metals required for their future use. Such metal properties can include toughness, ...

It wasn’t long after humans discovered metals that they also discovered ways to apply heat to them to change their properties, such as making the metal stronger or more flexible. Here are some concise ...

AMES, Iowa – Just like a chameleon changes its skin color in response to its environment, engineers have found a way for liquid metal – and potentially solid metal – to change its surface structure in ...

Many industrial processes involve the heat treatment of materials, such as metals, plastics, and composites. Commonly used heat transfer fluids such as water, ethylene glycol, and oils exhibit ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6874df/metal_coating_eng) has announced the addition of the "Metal Coating ...

(Nanowerk News) A new MIT-developed heat treatment transforms the microscopic structure of 3D-printed metals, making the materials stronger and more resilient in extreme thermal environments. The ...
