Metal brushing — Brushed metal finishing gives a surface a uniform finish and removes surface defects. This technique helps produce a uniform, parallel grain texture to even out the product’s surface.

New study unveils why gold (111) surface forms a herringbone texture Gold, a precious metal, is arguably the most widely used metal across jewelry and coinage due to its physical properties that ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Bacterial pathogens can live on surfaces for days. What if frequently touched surfaces such as doorknobs could instantly kill them off? Purdue University engineers have created ...

Collecting texture information on soft metals is challenging, primarily due to difficulties in accessing the area of interest and the lithium and sodium metal’s reactivity. The PFIB-EBSD ...

Au (111) surface, the most stable gold surface, has a periodic herringbone texture on it that can be observed by sophisticated microscopes (See Figure 1A). A long-term puzzle is why this strange ...

The texture and color of the metal surface changes with an oxide layer forming on it in the initial stages. Soon this layer converts to a hydroxide layer. Later this hydroxide layer combines with ...
