[A type of metal can still resist fracture at -253°C] October 16th. Metals usually become brittle and prone to fracture at extremely low temperatures. Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom have discovered that a type of metal can still maintain excellent resistance to brittle fracture even at extremely low temperatures of -253°C. These alloys can avoid fracture by opening up deformation paths by forming new microstructures when traditional deformation methods are blocked. Relevant results were published in the magazine "Nature" on the 14th.
