We think Avery Dennison has a sound capital structure, and its consistent free cash flow generation should easily support its debt-service requirements and future capital-allocation decisions. Avery’s ...

But he couldn’t predict how swiftly this vision would materialize—or just how transformative its applications would prove to be. Diffusion generation process for a stable crystalline material having a ...

TSMC is intensifying its localization efforts, with a growing emphasis on sourcing raw materials from local suppliers—a proportion set to increase steadily year over year. This strategic shift ...

So you shouldn't have to put up with poor service. Our annual energy satisfaction survey covers 16 suppliers in Great Britain. Our most recent results were published in January 2025 based on nearly 12 ...

A research team led by scientists at Northwestern University has developed the first-ever two-dimensional mechanically interlocked material with high flexibility and strength. In the future ...

Materials innovation is one of the key drivers of major technological breakthroughs. The discovery of lithium cobalt oxide in the 1980s laid the groundwork for today’s lithium-ion battery technology.

But decades later, the market for kids’ art supplies has a whole lot more to offer. So to help me (and you) pick a gift for a friend’s third-grader, prepare for a toddler’s first foray into ...

A new study examines ways that carbon could be used as a key ingredient in building materials—particularly biomass plastics and cement. Obstacles still remain, as some of these technologies are ...

But that magnetism can only occur in a system that lacks a specific symmetry—one that the team's new material should have had. "So the fact that we saw this was very puzzling. We didn't really ...

In 2024, superconductivity—the flow of electric current with zero resistance—was discovered in three distinct materials. Two instances stretch the textbook understanding of the phenomenon.

Porous materials are materials with pores (cavities, channels or interstices). The characteristics of a porous material vary depending on the size, arrangement and shape of the pores, as well as ...
