Electrical conductivity: copper has the highest conductivity of the engineering metals. Silver or other elements may be added to increase strength, softening resistance or other properties without ...

Lead-free solder alloys have been around for as long as people have done soldering, with sources dating back about 5,000 years. Most of these alloys were combinations like copper-silver or silver-gold ...

Magnetic structure of a material. The colored spheres represent atoms and the arrows stand for their magnetic moments. The curved surface illustrates how the atoms assume the most energetically ...

When welding Aluminium alloy 1050 to itself or an alloy from the same subgroup the recommended filler wire is 1100. For welding to alloys 5083 and 5086 or alloys from the 7XXX series, the recommended ...

Scientists have successfully developed a super-strong, highly ductile and super-light titanium-based alloy using additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing. Their findings open up a new ...

In metal alloys, behavior at the atomic scale affects the material's properties. However, the number of possible alloys is astronomical. Scientists developed a theoretical model that allows him to ...

Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) maps of the investigated Inconel 718 alloys. Inverse pole figure (IPF) maps along the X direction (horizontal) are presented for a A wrought and fully ...

Ingenious people have produced alloys since ancient times. By trial and error, they mixed metals and other elements until the whole came out better than any component alone. In recent years, some ...

The study includes the manufacturing process of super-invar alloy of WAAM, the relationship between micro-structure and G/R, the mechanical properties and the CTE. The main transfer mode of liquid ...
