What are Nanomaterials?
Nanoparticles and nanostructured materialsGrain size on the order of 10-9 m or nmExtremely large specific surface areaManifest fascinating and useful propertiesStructural and non-structural applicationsStronger, more ductile materialsChemically very active materials
Srikanth Raghunathan Tel: (724) 861-6129 4
Tunable/tailorable chemical, mechanical, and physical properties due to extremely fine grain size (1-100 nm)Superior formability and potential superplasticityPossess high strength, toughness, and ductilityPossess enhanced activity (extremely large specific surface area)Reduced thermal conductivityDispersoids can be utilized to further increase strengthReduced energy costs
