Cellular glass thermal insulation Thermal weak spots in building facades, known as thermal bridges, often thwart the goal of more energy-efficient architecture. Buildings commonly exhibit linear thermal bridges at key structural connections, such as at the foundation, floor lines, or
Printable Nanosensors
Printable sensors that indicate material deformation Yeadon Space Agency creates electrically conductive composite materials using carbon nanotube–based inks. The nanotube coatings are durable and moisture resistant, and they retain their conductive capacity when stretched or strained, unlike many metal coatings.
