When a liquid is cooled rapidly, it gains viscosity and eventually becomes a rigid solid glass. The point at which it does so is known as the glass transition. A collaborative research group has ...

The increasing commercialization of space has found the industry under the environmental microscope, as its few conservation regulations could have ominous consequences if left unaddressed. Photo ...

The glass transition of polymer materials is a crucial factor that affects material properties. Typically, this transition is analyzed using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). However, sometimes ...

Physically speaking, glass is a rather unusual material. Most solid materials are significantly ‘ordered’ with their constituent molecules or atoms in a regular arrangement, repeating patterns called ...

Researchers have developed a hemp-derived plastic alternative that could minimize the negative environmental impacts of ...
