Short description of company
The Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering of Warsaw University of Technology is the leading Polish
research institute with strong interest in nanomaterials. It is a leading centre in both fundamental and applied
sciences. The extensive research programs are financed by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, the
EU and NATO as well as industrial partners. The main research topics include: fabrication methods of
nanomaterials (severe plastic deformations, mechanical alloying, nanocrystallization from amorphous state,
special techniques for nanopowders consolidation, electrodeposition), functional magnetic nanomaterials, new
generation of high strength nanostructured metallic materials, polymers modified with nanoparticles.
1. Profile: Offer: Fabrication of high-strength nanostructured metals and alloys
DESCRIPTION:
Grain refinement down to nanometer scale results in unusually high mechanical strength combined with
reasonably good palsticity of materials. However, the main disadvantage of available technologies is small
volume of obtained products.
INNOVATIVE ASPECTS:
The technology of hydrostatic extrusion was developed and successfully applied for grain refinemnet in a number
of metallic materials (aluminium alloys, titanium, stainless steel).
MAIN ADVANTADGES / BENEFITS:
This technology allows to obtain large volumes of products in the form of rods, wires and tubes with good
opportunity to industrial application.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
Rods and wires - 1 - 10 mm in diameter, from 50 cm in length
Yield strength of materials:
aluminium alloys up to 650 MPa (depending on chemical composition)
titanium more than 1000 MPa
Stainless steel 1250 MPa
CURRENT STAGE OF DEVELOPMEN
Available for demontration
