Hold on, hold on! We may have a new world record here. Researchers from Brown University may have found a substance with a melting point that beats out the previous record by a few hundred degrees.

The team also made use of artificial intelligence (AI) neural networks to track individual atoms. This enabled them to analyze thousands of frames, each showing every atom’s position, which would be ...

Using the method of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis, NUSTMISIS scientists created HfC0.5N0.35, (hafnium carbonitride) which is close to a desired theoretical composition. It has a high ...

Boiling, melting, slip melting, and cloud point measurements and assessments are carried out in a fully automated manner, without the need for constant visual observation. The results of the boiling ...

The melting point is the basic property of any material, whether it is a ceramic, metal, or plastic. While a DSC can determine the temperature where the heat of crystalline melting takes place, or the ...

STATE COLLEGE, Pa., April 20 (UPI) --What controls cocoa butter's melting point? A single genetic trait. And researchers at Penn State say they've found it. Scientists say their discovery will allow ...

A materials engineer at the University of California San Diego is leading the development of a new research platform for studying high-performance materials, in particular new materials that melt ...

A new substance, unlike any on Earth, could have one of the highest melting points we've ever seen, theoretically withstanding temperatures of more than 7,460 degrees Fahrenheit. To put that into ...
