Oxide-Dispersion-Strengthened alloys (ODS) can offer an unrivalled resistance to high temperature, oxidation and creep resistance.
Copper based ODS alloys represent also a valuable and green alternative to Copper-Beryllium alloys with several resistance grades according to the formulation.
MBN Nanomaterialia set up the complete manufacturing line to provide, also, semi-finished products as bars and plates of Fe based ODS alloys
PM2000 FeCrAl - Y2O3
PM2000 is a dispersion strengthened alloys obtained by high energy ball milling (HEBM) is specifically designed for high temperature resistance applications.

Copper-Alumina composites Cu-Al2O3
Nanostructured Copper reinforced by ultrafine Aluminum oxide particles has improved yield strength and hardness thanks to grain boundary and dispersion strengthening mechanisms.
It can be supplied both for sintering and cold spraying applications in different particle size distribution It can be used for electrical components requiring high electrical conductivity and with good strength at elevated temperature
