Wang’s research stars a liquid metal alloy Galinstan—a mixture of the elements gallium, indium, and tin. It boasts a melting point of negative 2 degrees F, so at room temperature, the metal is ...

Scientists have developed a liquid metal that is able to stretch horizontally and vertically, as well as change shapes, much like the T-1000 robot featured in 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day.' ...

Yuan thinks self-adhesion through liquid metal is an advantage, because, if it can be done with paper, it could be done with other thin, lightweight materials to create smart objects and soft ...

Liquid metal refers to a class of metallic materials that remain in a liquid state at or near room temperature. These materials possess unique properties, such as high electrical and thermal ...

The new liquid is reminiscent of the liquid shapeshifting seen in 1991's Terminator 2, and the scientists even tested it by having it escape a cage. The scientists published a paper on the new ...

Zapping liquid metal droplets with ultrasound offers a new way to make wiring for stretchy, bendy electronics. The technique, described in the Nov. 11 Science, adds a new approach to the toolbox ...
