A research team from MIT developed a new material which they say is strong as steel, but light as plastic. This innovative material, according to the team, can be easily produced on a larger scale. Its use ranges from producing lightweight car or phone coatings to building blocks for massive […]
Reduced noise by up to 80 percent and better passenger comfort may be achieved in airplanes using this low-density graphene-based aerogel. This new and light, meringue-like material may be the key to lowering the engine noise associated with aircraft and it’s developed by the University of Bath. This aerogel weighs […]
A team of researchers from the University of Maryland made a transparent material from ordinary wood sheets that’s clear as glass, but much stronger and with a higher insulating capacity. They hope it will be used as an energy efficient material in the future. Scientists Make Transparent Wood Sheets Clear […]
