New Material Promises to Strengthen America’s Aerospace Industry

In a recent publication in Science, scientists from Stockholm University, the University of Illinois Chicago, and partners have introduced a high-entropy oxide nanoribbon. This material is engineered to withstand extreme environments, such as those faced in aerospace and defense. High-entropy materials, composed of multiple elements, are known for their durability and resilience. This breakthrough could help secure the reliability of critical infrastructure and maintain the nation's technological leadership in high-stakes sectors.
