- Metallic glasses are vastly used in manufacturing display screens and protective coatings. The fundamental research, in collaboration with University of Cambridge, aimed to develop a new generation of metallic glasses called “Bulk Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) Glasses”. The main objective was to address the limitations with existing metallic glasses, e.g. the lack of processing methodologies capable of producing bulk samples suitable for mechanical testing. Having developed some bulk MOF glasses, it became possible to conduct indentation creep tests and determine the Young’s modulus. The work also allowed the first scratch testing experiments to be performed on a MOF-glass.
