- Ceramic-like strength and metallic toughness in a bulk metallic glass
A new Re–Co–Ta–B bulk metallic glass exhibits high strength, fracture toughness, and thermal stability, merging the traditionally distinct properties of ceramics and metals. Published in Nature on 22 April 2026, the study highlights its potential for applications requiring both ceramic-like strength and metallic resilience.
