The world of plastic injection moulding is changing rapidly, driven by the need for enhanced efficiency, cost savings, and ...

TIME writer Erin Levi describes The Studio as “annealing tradition with innovation.” Please help local businesses by taking an online survey to help us navigate through these unprecedented times. None ...

When you put plastic packaging into your recycling bin, it might be a surprise to learn that the least likely thing to happen is that it will be recycled in the UK. Instead, a huge amount of plastic ...

a California-based startup working in the realm of quantum computing for commercial applications, has solved a real-world useful problem using its D-Wave Advantage 2 prototype annealing quantum ...

New process converts PET plastic into monomer building blocks, which can be recycled into new PET products or upcycled into higher value materials. In experiments, method recovered 94% of monomers ...

Microplastics are now a ubiquitous part of our daily physical reality. These minuscule fragments of degrading plastic now suffuse our air, our soil, the food we eat and the water we drink.

Plastic does not naturally biodegrade. The Environmental Protection Agency cites research indicating that once in the environment, plastics can take between 100 and 1,000 years to decompose.

On average, the total amount of plastics found in the brain in each of the 2024 samples is about the same amount found in a disposable plastic spoon, say the researchers. What's perhaps even more ...

A full annealing process at 879°C reduces internal stress before a new razor-sharp 30-degree cutting edge is carefully crafted. Heat treatment hardens the blade to an impressive 60-62 HRC ...

Articles focused on active research areas, wherein an emphasis is placed on the relationship between the materials or interface synthesis, structure and/or properties and applications. We are pleased ...
