- Materials | NIST
Materials Genome Initiative (federal government wide) NIST MGI Standard Reference Materials Plastics, carbon nanotubes, high-strength alloys, artificial bone and joint replacements are just some of the emerging materials for which NIST develops testbeds, defines benchmarks, and develops formability measurements and models
- Bioinspired Materials Can Take a Punch | NIST
The mantis shrimp packs a powerful punch thanks partly to unique structures in its exoskeleton NIST researchers have fabricated synthetic versions of these structures and tested their impact resistance by blasting them with microprojectiles These bioinspired structures can be used to create new, impact-resistant materials for aerospace, defense, sports and more
- Quantum Matters in Material Sciences (QMMS) | NIST
As part of the JARVIS workshop series, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is organizing the 4th Quantum Matters in Materials Science (QMMS) workshop in-person on Feb 19-20, 2025 The workshop will be focused on quantum phenomena in emerging materials for next generation devices All materials are inherently quantum in nature, but when quantum phenomena manifest at the
- Rare Crystal Shape Found to Increase the Strength of 3D-Printed Metal
NIST researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it possible to use in lightweight, high-strength objects such as airplane parts Once thought impossible, quasicrystals were originally discovered at NIST, leading to a 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
