Composite materials are those constructed from two or more constituent materials, generating novel or enhanced properties such as mechanical and thermal resistance, vibration damping, corrosion resistance, and so on. These materials are increasingly exploited in construction projects on every scale, allowing more ambitious, durable, and technologically advanced installations to be realized.

This article provides an overview of the mechanical properties of steel and the impact of high-stress environments on these properties.

On February 14, 2023 we announced our Rebuttal Update Project. This included an ask for feedback about the added At a glance section in the updated basic rebuttal versions. This weekly blog post series highlights this new section of one of the updated basic rebuttal versions and serves as a bump for our ask. This week features Plants cannot live on CO2 alone.

Laser gas analysis allows for gas detection with high sensitivity and selectivity. The multi-component capability and wide dynamic range of this detection method help analyze a mixture of gases with a broad concentration range.

Elemental mapping is an imaging technique used to visualize the spatial distribution of elements within a material. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry is a widely used analytical technique for this purpose due to its ability to provide information on a  broad range of elements, making it an ideal tool for studying compositional zonation and determining the elemental composition of a material.

This article provides an overview of carbon steel and the impact of the carbon content on its strength and ductility.

???????The use of plastics for construction has become a major environmental concern. Reducing reliance on plastics and replacing them with sustainable construction materials can lead to a greener future.

Governments all over the world are devising effective plans to reduce environmental pollution, specifically caused by plastics and microplastics.

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a non-destructive, efficient, adaptable, sensitive, and multi-elemental analytical approach that is employed to determine the elemental composition of materials. This article focuses on the application of XRF to corrosion analysis.
