Researchers at Texas A&M University have achieved a breakthrough by developing the world’s first metallic gel – a material made of metals with properties of a gel. Unlike everyday gels found in ...

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 ...

Mercury is a metal, yet it has some weird physical properties, including being a liquid at room temperature.

Mercury freezes at roughly minus 38.8 degrees Celsius, a temperature so far below everyday conditions that the silvery ...

Localized anodic oxidation reaction of the material in acidic solution provides method of oxide film to rapidly and reversibly switch between silver surface and matte black.

Researchers are studying how self-propelled liquid metals might move around, eventually creating a revolution in electronics...or an apocalypse. Eric Mack has been a CNET contributor since 2011. Eric ...

(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 ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid metals are exceptional alloys with melting points so low that they can remain liquid at temperatures close to what we experience in our everyday environment. A popular ...
