A simple alloy has claimed the crown for toughest material ever recorded. In a new study, a team led by researchers at Berkeley Lab ran the alloy through a series of tests and discovered not only its ...

Researchers from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have measured the highest toughness ever recorded of any material. a metal alloy of chromium, cobalt and nickel was found to be the 'toughest ...

Researchers have uncovered a remarkable metal alloy that won t crack at extreme temperatures due to kinking, or bending, of crystals in the alloy at the atomic level. Unlike most materials, the new ...
