Aluminum and magnesium are among the “many” metals that melt at lower temperatures under extremely high pressure. The results came from a quantum computer simulation, but model real materials ...

Scientists have long known that impurities and flaws in a metal’s crystal structure can lower the material’s melting point. In an unexpected twist, an international research team has dramatically ...

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) have together been responsible for the development of the Unified Numbering System that is referred to as an ...

THE measurement of the melting point of a material requires determination of temperature within allowable limits of accuracy at precisely the moment when the change of state occurs. At intermediate to ...
