The longer I use 3D printers, the less patience I have for build surfaces that turn every print into a tiny negotiation. I don’t want to hover around the first layer, wondering whether the model will ...

The magnetoresistance effect is the tendency of a material to change the value of its electrical resistance in an externally-applied magnetic field. It has been widely applied in sensors and hard disk ...

Reporting in ACS Applied Polymer Materials, researchers evaluated seven different textures made up of microscopic-sized cones to see which ones could repel sewage water the best. In sewage pipes, ...

Irregularities present on a surface are often described as surface roughness or texture. These surface textures such as grooves and dimples impart friction, which is the force between two sliding ...

German scientists have investigated the role of surface texturing in perovskite-silicon tandem cells and have found that several new processes offer the ability to etch smaller, more uniform textures ...
