Abstract/Summary:
he ability to produce new materials with desired mechanical properties depends upon the design and production of novel microstructures. This requires control of grain size, reinforcement-particle morphology, and the amount and distribution of dopants and reinforcement particles. Using chemical methods we have made significant progress towards achieving such control. The particle size of nanocrystalline Al (nano-Al) produced by decomposition of...
