The presentation describes work over the last year on development of materials and foundry technology for the production of aluminum based nanocomposites. Highlighted are techniques for both adding particles into the melt and the development of nano particles within the melt using reactive chemistry. A proposed plan for the transition from bench and small scale testing to the production of full scale components is detailed. less
