[内容简介]
Mechanochemical processing is a novel and cost-effective method of producing a wide range of nanopowders. It involves the use of conventional high energy ball mill to initiate chemical reactions and structural changes. The resulting nanopowders are then used in the production of ceramic and metallic components using sintering and other powder metallurgy techniques to produce net shape components. Without using mechanochemical processing, production of the precursor nanopowders would require significant energy inputs. This book focuses on this revolutionizing technique for the manufacture of many advanced materials.
