| Abstract Scope |
High performance metals offer tremendous potential to improve medical systems. However, conventional processing methods in metals manufacturing have reached certain limits in further improving the properties. Incorporation of nanoelements into various functional materials can obtain unusual physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Here we show a newly discovered mechanism of nanoparticle self-dispersion and stabilization to achieve a uniform self-dispersion of nanoparticles in various metals to deliver unprecedented properties. This talk will specifically discuss about various scientific and technological aspects on how nanotechnology can be applied to break metallurgical barriers, enabling unprecedented micro/nano-structure control and property tuning in metals manufacturing. This approach of nanotechnology enabled metals manufacturing paves a revolutionary pathway for a new age of metals to meet sustainability challenges in today’s society. |
