Posted by: Marc Boucher in Nanotechnology
According to China’s People Daily a joint project between the Advanced Technology and Materials Co., the University of Science and Technology Beijing and the Institute of Physics under Chinese Academy of Science (CAS) has achieved a major breakthrough in the developement of Nano-crystalline material joining Japan and Germany as leaders in the field.
Nano-crystalline material is made up of crystal particles five to ten nanometers long. The new material will be used on Shenzhou VI scheduled to launch in mid-October with a crew of two Yuhangyuan (astronauts).
