Alloys traditionally consist of two or more metallic elements, with secondary elements enhancing the properties of a primary ...

The researchers tested their new approach on two groups of metals: five high-melting-point metals (vanadium, molybdenum, ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...

A new efficient alloy-based catalyst developed for improved hydrogen production through electrolysis of water into hydrogen and oxygen, can pave the path towards a solution for clean energy production ...

High entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted attention for their remarkable strength, corrosion resistance, irradiation tolerance and thermal stability due to their compositional complexity and ...

Skoltech and MIPT researchers have sped up the search for high-performance metal alloys for the aerospace industry, ...

Entropy always increases, but in quantum systems, traditional entropy measures seem constant. TU Wien researchers resolved this paradox by considering Shannon entropy, which accounts for the ...

Half-metals are unique magnetic compounds that have been attracting interest in the development of mass-storage technologies.

Researchers use high-brilliance synchrotron radiation to identify the half-metal mix with the highest half-metallic nature.

New research shows that the second law of thermodynamics, which states entropy increases over time, also applies to closed ...
