The boundary between solid metal and liquid metal can be much less "solid" than we ever suspected. RMIT researchers have discovered that the liquid-solid boundary can fluctuate back and forth, with ...

Liquid metal droplets fuse themselves into stretchable circuits at room temperature, driven only by surface tension gradients during solvent evaporation.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid metals have long fascinated materials scientists due to their unique properties that bridge the gap between solid and liquid states of matter. These materials, which remain ...

Nanoporous metals show promising performances in electrochemical catalysis. The conventional fabrication methods for these nanoporous metals are chemical dealloying, electrochemical dealloying, and ...

The environmental crisis caused by illegal mining (galamsey) in Ghana has turned once-potable rivers into 'brown waters' of ...

Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney have developed what they describe as the “world’s first motor that spins using a droplet of liquid metal”, a breakthrough that could ...

Researchers have clarified the chemical compatibility between high temperature liquid metal tin (Sn) and reduced activation ferritic martensitic, a candidate structural material for fusion reactors.
