Canadian research says microcrack technology can increase glass strength 200 times

According to the Russian "Newswires" News Network on February 7, Canadian scientists published papers in the "Nature" scientific journal, suggesting that the micro-crack system could be used to increase the glass strength by about 200 times.

To test this conjecture, scientists first used a laser system to drill a hole a few microns in diameter on ordinary glass and fill it with polyurethane. Scientists say that cracks on ordinary glass can lead to glass breakage. However, such cracks can induce microcracking, which can increase the glass strength by up to about 200 times.

The researchers also pointed out that such directional damage makes the fracture edges close to each other without further breaking the glass. Scientists explained that this method of synthesis is similar to the composition of animal teeth and shells. In addition, although the micro-cracks on the glass can be clearly seen at present, the cracks can be reduced in size.

In February 2013, Yale University physicists also created a non-shatterable theory of soft glass plasticity, and explained that the mechanical properties of the material are determined by its cooling rate. (Internship Compilation: Yan Huijun reviewer: Lie Man)

Load Cells By Structural


A load cell (or loadcell) is a transducer that converts force into measurable electrical output. Although there are many varieties of force sensors, strain gauge load cells are the most commonly used type.
Except for certain laboratories where precision mechanical balances are still used, strain gauge load cells dominate the weighing industry.
