On the face of things, not much, but after seeing [Zachary Tong]’s latest video on liquid metal ion thrusters, we see that they seem to have a lot more in common than we’d initially thought.
Liquid metal as a heat transfer medium offers much better heat transfer compared to classic thermal paste. However, in practice it also harbors dangers, for example due to spillage. In the worst ...

While paper isn’t exactly a smart material, it someday could be if it is covered in a new type of liquid metal. This liquid alloy has the potential to turn paper and other materials into gadgets ...
This time, a group of scientists managed to create a shape-shifting liquid metal that can transition between the solid and liquid state. The new liquid is reminiscent of the liquid shapeshifting ...
“Liquid metal” thermal paste, which replaces the usual chemical compound with a metallic alloy, can increase the thermal conductivity between your CPU and cooler. That’s why it’s popular ...
Now, however, scientists have devised a method of breaking them down in place using liquid metal. Led by Asst. Prof. Giovanni Traverso and postdoctoral researcher Vivian Feig, a team at MIT drew ...
I asked Dr. Won Kyung SEONG to design & build a much smaller chamber to greatly reduce the time needed to start (and finish!) the experiment with the liquid metal exposed to the mixture of methane ...
A rumor from long ago may finally come true, with liquid metal hinges and bearings predicted to be used in the iPhone Fold. Foldable screens currently display a very visible crease after they have ...
They include tweaks to the PS5’s liquid metal cooling design aimed to give the console “more stable” cooling. The changes follow unproven claims that the liquid metal used in the first PS5 ...
