A 32 Tesla superconducting magnet is focus of Episode 10 of R&D 100 – The Podcast
In this, the tenth episode of the R&D 100 Podcast, we examine the latest technology in superconducting magnets. These magnets have existed since the 1960s, but the field available has been limited by the properties of superconducting materials. So, VP, Editorial Director Paul J. Heney and Senior Editor Aimee Kalnoskas of R&D World spoke with…

Ultra-Strong Aluminum Alloys for Additive Manufacturing
Despite attractive properties, such as low density, high strength, and corrosion resistance, aluminum alloys have experienced a slower adoption in additive manufacturing (AM) compared to steels, titanium alloys, and superalloys. To date, only a limited number of aluminum powders are available commercially for AM that are suitable for demanding, high-stress or high-temperature environments. Dr. Amir…

PFAS — the collateral damage begins
I predicted collateral damage as regulators addressed PFAS. I was right. On December 1, the EPA effectively killed Inhance Technologies’ barrier packaging business. The press on the EPA action is pretty bifurcated. Most are taking a victory lap, cheering that a producer of PFAS will cease production. A minority ask what will replace the technology…
