Story summary
- Researchers from the University of the South China and Purdue University developed a high-strength, ductile, 3D-printable steel with artificial intelligence.
- The alloy blends strength and flexibility, avoiding the usual trade-off.
- The AI analyzed 81 properties of metals to design an alloy of iron, chromium, and other inexpensive metals.
- The resulting steel is rust-resistant, can be produced in six hours, and shows 1,730 MPa strength with 15.5% ductility.
