Method of Making Nanocrystalline Metal Flakes via Ultrasonic Shot Peening
Summary
Researchers at Purdue University have developed a method to generate NC metal flakes by ultrasonic shot peening (USP). This technology leads to the formation of nanosized grains in the metal flakes, which has the potential for application in the field of polymer composites and surface coating. This method is highly efficient and environmentally friendly because the mechanism of this method is the severe plastic deformation and fatigue behavior of the materials.
