Date

Philip Nash, Charles and Lee Finkl Professor of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering and Director of the Thermal Processing Center at Armour College of Engineering, co-authored a paper with graduate students that was published in Scientific Reports. The paper, titled “The Large Scale Synthesis of Aligned Plate Nanostructures”, unveiled a major breakthrough in nanotechnology processing that reduces the time, and increases the amount of product that can be manufactured on an industrial scale. The new technique makes nanotechnology economically viable for numerous applications, including pollution control for vehicles, reduction in waste heat from vehicles and electronics, and removal of toxic waste from water.

The research was covered by several news publications including: Phys.org and nano werk.
