Intermetallic Nickel Aluminides as alternating Automotive Body Materials
Tomorrow’s car will handle better, be lighter, more fuel efficient and cause less pollution. One key technical design strategy for improving vehicles efficiency is the light weighting. The enormous potential of intermetallics especially aluminides stem from their many attractive properties, such as...
