Biography

Isabella Gallino has over 20 years of research and teaching experience in the field of metallic materials, focusing on metallic glasses and sustainable metal production, particularly CO2-free aluminum production. Metallic glasses represent a new class of materials with outstanding properties that make them technologically promising. They are of interest due to their excellent mechanical properties and exhibit an unusual combination of high tensile strength (close to theoretical strength) and low elasticity modulus (ideal for springs). They can be molded like polymers and 3D printed through laser melting into any desired geometry. Isabella is excited to enrich the Institute of Materials Science and Technologies at TU Berlin with new expertise in processing technology for metallic glasses, developing new alloys, and thermal analysis for characterizing the thermophysical properties of metallic materials. Additionally, there are plans to expand the existing technical expertise at the Chair of Metal Processing Technology by integrating fundamental scientific aspects of physical metallurgy.
