Industrial heat can quickly become dangerous. Whether it’s a battery module operating under continuous load or a turbine ...

Discover how heat resistant materials and material science innovations help electronics manufacturing manage rising temperatures, boost reliability, and enable smaller, more powerful next‑generation ...

The number of industries and range of applications requiring high integrity, hard wearing thermal insulation barriers, chemical and abarasion resistant materials is diverse. With an increasing global ...

Kevlar and Twaron are famously tough materials, but there’s a bit of a trade-off to be made between strength, heat resistance and weight. Now, researchers have created a new nanofiber version of the ...

Scientists have developed and characterized a novel, extremely thin and transparent material that has different thermal conduction properties depending on the direction. While it can conduct heat ...

Japanese manufacturer The Polyplastics Group (Polyplastics) has announced a high-performance material that it says offers heat resistance and thermal insulation properties for EV lithium-ion batteries ...

A new, nearly weightless insulation material can withstand extreme heat that would destroy other materials. The porous aerogel is at least 99 percent open space, with the rest made up of an atomically ...

Scientists have a new material they say is as strong as Kevlar and way more insulating. The resulting fiber structure could protect first responders and military personnel who are in danger from heat ...

For polar bears, the insulation provided by their fat, skin, and fur is a matter of survival in the frigid Arctic. For engineers, polar bear hair is a dream template for synthetic materials that might ...
