Glass and ceramics are both inorganic materials with useful physical properties that can withstand a high amount of thermal shock and harsh environments. As material scientists continue to find ways ...

Magnesium silicate hydrate cement (MSHC) is a potential low-carbon alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), but its carbon emissions vary with raw materials and mix proportions. A probabilistic ...

Researchers found a notable effect of aluminum on the sound velocities of superhydrous phase B, a dense hydrous magnesium silicate and potential host of water in the deep Earth. Their results suggest ...

Stanford University chemists have developed a practical, low-cost way to permanently remove atmospheric carbon dioxide, the main driver of global warming and climate change. The new process uses heat ...

Into each of the 500-odd warplanes produced in the U.S. last week went many times as much magnesium as the total U.S. production of this soft, silvery metal in 1914. And thereby hangs a tale: > Of how ...
