The Belgian government melts thousands of weapons in ArcelorMittal steel mills, and confirms studies on the subject: the future of security is without weapons, not with more weapons.
Cut costs and times. It is safe, versatile and sustainable. 3D4Steel, 3D printer for steels, the first of its kind in the world, is entirely Italian.
For equal protection, the weight of this metal foam is exactly half of what a classic steel armor can achieve, and not only that: the CMF (Composite metal foam) also protects against weapons capable of piercing it, steel .
The new wood is very dense and has a strength of around 404 megapascals, which makes it almost 9 times stronger than natural wood.
Gold could become the material of the future thanks to "goldene", a two-dimensional sheet created by researchers at Linköping University.
When it comes to relaxation, there is no point in denying how some actions can help certain people obtain a "moment of peace". Obviously, this is all very subjective and varies from individual to individual. Looking at what has happened over the last decades, it is useless to deny that a constantly growing number of individuals are resorting to using electronic cigarettes to "unplug" and experience a few moments of relaxation, alone or in the company of other people. Electronic cigarettes are now considered… Read more
