Cordierite, the material behind heat-resistant pizza stones, has been shown to resist changes in size despite significant temperature fluctuations. The reasons for this have been largely unexplained ...

Majority of materials are focus to thermal expansion which means to expand when heated and to contract when cooled. But thermal expansion can also be useful, making possible the workings of ...

Thermomechanical analysis (TMA) is a thermal analysis technique that measures dimensional changes at a micrometer scale, such as deformation, in a material’s properties against time or temperature ...

An effective, stable solid-state electrochemical transistor has been developed, heralding a new era in thermal management technology. In modern electronics, a large amount of heat is produced as waste ...

Cordierite, a remarkable mineral familiar to many as the material behind heat-resistant pizza stones, exhibits an unusual ability to resist changes in size despite significant temperature fluctuations ...
