Disruptions in the global supply chain have led to a new dynamic for many small and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) – the need to be more strategic about “second sourcing” and reshoring. The biggest increase is in what’s referred to as second sourcing, which adds redundancies such as a second source of a supply to minimize risk while increasing options.

Phase change refers to a shift in the way a material responds when subjected to external inputs. A good example is ice turning into water and then into steam. We witness this phase change as the seasons change here on Earth. What actually happens occurs when photons from the Sun convert to heat energy when passing through the atmosphere. That heat loosens the electromagnetic molecular bonds in the material.
