A UCLA-led, multi-institution research team has discovered a metallic material with the highest thermal conductivity measured among metals, challenging long-standing assumptions about the limits of ...

A team led by Prof. Wu Zhongqing from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has predicted the thermal conductivity of bridgmanite and ...

Heat, it turns out, has a memory. A cooling cup of coffee may not seem particularly thoughtful. At the scale of a kitchen, ...

Data center servers, powerful smartphones, and your computer's motherboard have one thing in common. When these devices get too hot, their performance takes a hit, and we can't have that. That's why ...

A cooling cup of coffee seems to follow a simple rule: heat moves from warmer areas to cooler ones. This familiar process has ...

In a groundbreaking discovery, researchers have found that incorporating eggshells into clay bricks can reduce heat ...

Thermoplastics have traditionally been thermal barriers or insulators. But the new Konduit thermally conductive thermoplastic compounds from LNP Engineering are designed to actually overcome the base ...

Boron arsenide has dethroned diamond as the best heat conductor, thanks to refined crystal purity and improved synthesis methods. This discovery could transform next-generation electronics by ...
