First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for post-processing agglomerated nanoscale powders comprising:
- selecting agglomerated nanoscale powders;
placing the agglomerated nanoscale powders in a fluid;
adding a reactive media to the fluid;
delivering stress to the agglomerated nanoscale powders in fluid to de-agglomerate the nanoscale powders, wherein the stress delivery is conducted at a temperature less than 0.5 times the melting point of agglomerated nanoscale powders;
collecting the de-agglomerated nanoscale powders.
