Engineering ceramic specific compounds

Along with metal-ND coatings, the incorporation of DND particles enhances the parameters of bulk metallic compounds and ceramics. For instance, the incorporation of ND powders into an aluminum matrix opens the way of obtaining materials with a high thermal conductivity and specific strength for use in aircraft engineering. In the atomic and electronic industry, DNDs are also used to manufacture nanoporous ceramic filters for biochemical engineering. ... 

Production of novel materials. Chemical engineers will design processes to produce ceramic parts for engines, high-temperature superconductors, polymer-composites for stmctural components, and specialty chemicals produced in small amounts to exacting specifications. Chemical processes will shift from the traditional area of petrochemicals to inorganic compounds, from liquids to solids, and from large scale to small scale.
