Metals and metal alloys play an important role in the development of medical implants and devices. Different metals have properties that make them suited for different purposes, like strength, thermal conductivity, and biocompatibility. Choosing the right material for the device in question ensures that it will be both functional and safe for the patient.

Materials science focuses on how different materials work & what we can do with them. Researchers in materials science develop and study a variety of materials. 

Metallurgy is the material science and technology of metals and alloys. Learn more about materials science with Goodfellow's blogs.

Avionics are electronic systems used on aircraft, including those that support navigation, fuel management, and communication as well as flight data recorders and autopilot systems. 

Titanium dioxide is a naturally occurring oxide of the metal, titanium. It is chemical compound, with the formula of one titanium atom and two oxygen atoms, usually white in appearance and is insoluble in water.1 It is a bewitching compound with the unique ability to reflect and scatter light, making it a popular ingredient for a wide range of applications, including in cosmetics – such as theatre blood, paints and food products. 

This month we take a look at the new contender entering the arena for renewable fuel sources, the most water-repellent surface ever created, a 3D printed rocket engine nozzle for deep space, tougher ceramics with extra electrons and a scientific article on a novel environmentally friendly acid-based catalyst with graphene oxide foundations. 

Industry falls in love as Goodfellow's Head of Technical, Dr Aphrodite Tomou, is named an Exemplar in The Manufacturer's Top 100 on Wednesday, 7 June 2023. 

Goodfellow is pleased to be a member of a consortium aimed at accelerating trustworthy AI in the materials and chemical sectors, ClearSpace develops a space junk retrieval technology that could have been inspired by a beloved arcade game, new hybrid materials boost radiation detection and imaging technologies, a new alloy and 3D printing could be the future of space exploration, a new silicon anode breakthrough could encourage people to buy EVs, and rounding the week out by smelling the roses in virtual reality.

The awards, held at Leonardo Hotel, Milton Keynes, shined a spotlight on regional manufacturing excellence across multiple sectors - including digital and technology, aerospace and aviation, and food and drink. 

As leaders in delivering innovation, we were honoured to support the event through an impactful after-dinner speech from our CEO, Simon Kenney. Simon’s speech, titled Innovation, Delivered, paid homage to the value of ideas in manufacturing.
