Researchers have solved a long-standing puzzle about lower measured thermal conductivity values of cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) bulk crystals in the literature than the structurally more complex ...
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 263, No. 1313 (Sep. 5, 1961), pp. 161-188 (28 pages) The thermal conductivity of binary and ternary ...
Polymers are composed of very large molecules formed by a combination of different monomers (smaller and simpler molecules), which can be natural or synthetic. Polymers are the basis of many ...
Metal organic frameworks, or MOFs, are kind of like plastic building block toys. The pieces are simple to connect, yet they're capable of building highly sophisticated structures. Metal organic ...
Hot topic Fluorescent nanodiamonds coated with a heat-releasing polymer act as both a heat source and a sensor for intracellular measurements of thermal conductivity. (Courtesy: iStock/Mervana) A ...
A graphene coating has been used to boost thermal conductivity of the common plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by up to 600 times. This new result from an international team of physicists and ...
