RT Journal Article ID 65f94f7c338622cc A1 Deegan, David E. A1 Chapman, Chris D. A1 Pitkethly, Mike T1 THE PRODUCTION OF ALUMINIUM NANOPOWDER USING DC ATMOSPHERIC PLASMA TECHNOLOGY JF High Temperature Material Processes: An International Quarterly of High-Technology Plasma Processes JO HTM YR 2003 FD 2003-06-01 VO 7 IS 2 OP 6 AB Tetronics Limited has developed a process for producing ultra-fine (<150 nm) powder using atmospheric DC plasma technology. The procedure for producing aluminium nanopowder is briefly described with material characterisation results. The production method utilises the evaporation and subsequent gas phase condensation of an aluminium feed stock and offers the advantage of high throughput under controlled atmosphere conditions. This is complemented by controllable material passivation and dispersion at near atmospheric pressure. The work was funded under contract from QinetiQ (formally the United Kingdom Defence and Evaluation Research Agency) [1].
