Nanovate™ alloys achieve high strength, toughness, and hardness by reducing grain size to nanometer scale Created by a proprietary electrosynthesis process used commercially in high volumes Applied as fully dense coatings or free standing forms Advantages of Nanocrystalline Grain Size: - Yield Strength - Ultimate Tensile Strength - Hardness - Wear Resistance - Resilience - Coefficient of Friction
PowerMetal’s nanometals can be nanofused to a light weight substrate and used to cost-effectively produce micro- or macro-scale complex components. - Multiple finished forms to produce near net shape components - Bottom-up manufacturing is cost-efficient - Multiple, custom alloys for high performance applications What makes this material class unique is that unprecedented sporting goods component design flexibility can be achieved because of the inherent shape flexibility of net-shape manufacturing. The material can be formed into a myriad of shapes, which are simply dependent upon the shape of the substrate onto which the nanometal is deposited. In addition, the material can be nanofused to metal, graphite/epoxy composites, plastics - even wood - and can achieve material thickness distributions unattainable with conventionally processed metals. It may even be used to bond entirely dissimilar materials.
