Description
Tungsten has many applications, but its lack of ductility has been a major issue limiting its use. If tungsten or its alloys could be made more ductile, many applications would benefit, including the application of tungsten for military applications. Under the proposed project, using both grain structure control and alloying techniques, we will develop the process to produce nanocrystalline tungsten with higher ductility along with tungsten alloy materials that would have ductility at room temperature.
