Japan’s Toray Industries Inc. has developed a thermal conductivity technology that raises the heat-dissipating properties of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) to that of metals. Applying this ...

Imagine a device that lets you move heat very quickly from one place to another, yet needs no power, no electricity, no pumps and no moving parts. You might think, "Sure, that's what metals like ...

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

NIMS, in joint research with the University of Tokyo, AIST, the University of Osaka, and Tohoku University, have proposed a ...

Zero-thermal-expansion (ZTE) materials are widely used in precision optics, cryogenic equipment and sensors, where even small ...

Metal feels colder than wood because it rapidly transfers heat away from your body due to its dense atomic structure and free electrons. This efficient heat conduction triggers a stronger sensation of ...

Thermal Conduction is a “hot” topic! Dr. Rob and the Crew explore how thermal energy is transferred and conserved in different environments. STEM Challenge: Making Thermal Oobleck Curious About ...

Metals are known as good conductors of both heat and electricity. Regardless of temperature or other factors, typical conductivity does not change. This property is known as the Wiedemann-Franz Law.

Inspired by hierarchical structures found in nature, a research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the ...
