In the ever-advancing world of bioelectronics and medical devices, advanced materials are vital to improving quality of life. Platinum iridium alloy is a marvellous material, with exceptional properties, making it ideal for use in electronics within the medical field. Goodfellow’s wires, including platinum iridium wires, are at the forefront of revolutionary – and often life-changing - medical technologies.

Goodfellow’s own Dr Aphrodite Tomou contributes to Intellegens' newly released white paper ‘Trustworthy AI in the materials and chemical industries’, industrial origami could be the key to greener trains, the UK has rejoined the EU’s Horizon research programme

Firstly, we offer congratulations to one of our collaborators, Space DOTS, for their successful seed funding bid which will enable them to revolutionise advanced materials testing in space environments. We've come across self-healing metals, an AI-enabled nose which sniffs out harmful molecules, the successful testing of a flying car and the Webb telescope capturing amazing footage of new stars being born. Plus, if you haven’t already, we’ve included our July podcast for easy listening as you head into the weekend.

3D Printing Materials: What are 3D Printed Products Really Made From?

The introduction of MACOR® material revolutionised the world of machinable ceramics. Historically, ceramics such as alumina and zirconia have been used to manufacture thermo-resistant components across multiple sectors. Whilst these traditional ceramics possess many desirable properties - and hold great value within manufacturing - they can be notoriously difficult to machine.

Beryllium is a particularly important chemical in today's world, delivering superior performance and reliability, with rising demand across multiple industries. Its interesting array of properties make beryllium the must-have metal for an extensive range of applications across multiple sectors, including, but not limited to, aerospace, medical, automotive, energy, and communications.

A first for our materials-based business, our chemicals debut centres around Rare Earth Oxides (REOs), a collection of chemical compounds produced by reacting rare earth metals with oxygen. REOs are an exciting addition to our specialist product range of over 150,000 in stock materials.

We’re satisfying demand for novel compositions by introducing custom alloying to our repertoire of technical solutions. We’re now able to offer custom alloys – including High-Entropy Alloys – to meet your specific application requirements.

One of the UK’s leading manufacturers of specialist metals and materials has signed a new commercial agreement with Advanced Energy Minerals (AEM) to support its growing order book in the academic and research sectors.
