This is an image of glassomer. Glassomer can be milled, turnered, lasered or processed in CNC machines - just like a conventional polymer. (Image: Markus Breig, Karlsruher Institut für Technologie) ...

Pure quartz glass is highly transparent and resistant to thermal, physical, and chemical impacts. These are optimum prerequisites for use in optics, data technology or medical engineering. For ...

The structures of equipment such as lathes, milling machines, coordinate-measuring machines, and pump bases are typically cast-iron or steel weldments. The iron-casting process produces a rough ...

Machine learning, a tool increasingly used for the discovery and design of new materials, has now been adopted by researchers to design polymer brush films with desirable protein adsorption properties ...
