IIDA – Perspective Fall/Winter 2019 - 9
Titanium was once hailed as the material of the future thanks to its
strength and lightness. But the metal may have met its match.
A team of researchers at the University of Pennsylvania's School
of Engineering and Applied Science, the University of Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign, and the University of Cambridge have
discovered titanium's potential usurper: metallic wood.
According to a published study in Nature Research, metallic
wood is as strong as titanium but five times lighter. The new
material solves a flaw in the atomic structure of titanium that
causes the material to weaken during the manufacturing process.
"The reason we call it metallic wood is not just its density, which
is about that of wood, but its cellular nature," James Pikul, head
of the University of Pennsylvania's research group, told Dwell.
"Cellular materials are porous; if you look at wood grain, that's what
you're seeing-parts that are thick and dense and made to hold the
structure, and parts that are porous and made to support biological
functions, like transport to and from cells."
