Popis: Nanocrystalline NiAl has been produced from pre-cast alloys using an electron beam inert gas condensation system. In-situ compaction was carried out at 100 to 300°C under vacuum conditions. Energy dispersive spectroscopy was used to determine chemical composition and homogeneity. Average grain sizes in the range of 4 to 10 nm were found from TEM dark field analyses. A compression-cage fixture was designed to perform disk bend tests. These tests revealed substantial room temperature ductility in nanocrystalline NiAl, while coarse grained NiAl showed no measurable room temperature ductility.
