Materials
Plastics, carbon nanotubes, high-strength alloys, artificial bone and joint replacements are just some of the emerging materials for which NIST develops testbeds, defines benchmarks, and develops formability measurements and models.
A Smart Window to Sustainable Development: A Scientist's Story
"I think curiosity is at the root of all scientific careers. That, and insecurity. In my formative years, I felt compelled to assign a rational explanation to everything. I didn’t know it then, but I was practicing to be a scientist—and having lots of fun." – An excerpt from a Taking Measure blog post from NIST researcher Martin Green, who writes about his path to becoming a materials scientist and his research into the use of materials for sustainable development.
