Exploring the Frontier of Material Science at Cal Nano

In the dynamic landscape of material science, Cal Nano stands at the vanguard of innovation with our state-of-the-art cryogenic milling capabilities. This technique isn’t just a process; it’s a transformation, enabling the production of custom alloys, nanostructured, and nanocrystalline materials that can significantly enhance material properties beyond those of conventional materials.

Cryogenic Milling: A Closer Look

Cryogenic milling is a high-energy attrition milling process that involves the cooling of materials to cryogenic temperatures using liquid nitrogen or liquid argon during milling. This process is pivotal for materials sensitive to heat or those prone to smearing, as it prevents thermal degradation and maintains the purity of the substance. By fully submerging the material in a cryogenic fluid, we ensure an inert atmosphere, essential for processing hazardous materials or those with volatile components.

Why Cryogenic Milling?

The impact of cryogenic milling on material science is profound. It enables:

- Grain Refinement in Metallics: Through extreme cooling, we achieve unparalleled grain refinement, significantly improving the strength and durability of metals.
- Creation of Custom Alloys: Our capabilities allow for the development of custom metallic and refractory alloys tailored to specific industrial applications.
- Particle Size Reduction: We can reduce the particle size of ceramics, metals, and polymers to sub-micron levels, a critical factor for numerous high-tech applications.
- Homogeneous Mixing: Cryomilling facilitates faster and more effective mixing of materials, surpassing traditional methods.

Our Cryomilling Services

At Cal Nano, we offer collaborative R&D and pilot-scale production services, ensuring high-quality customer service with quick turnaround times. We accommodate batch sizes ranging from 500 grams to 7 kilograms+, with the option for customers to provide their own powder or have it sourced by us.

Applications of Cryomilled Powders

The potential applications for powders processed through cryomilling are vast, including additive manufacturing/3D printing, advanced thermal spray coatings, and the creation of enhanced parts via Spark Plasma Sintering.

By using cryogenic milling, Cal Nano not only leads in the production of advanced materials but also opens new avenues for industrial innovation. Connect with us to explore how our cutting-edge capabilities can address your most challenging material science needs.
