9601651 Shiflet Equipment for the synthesis and characterization of bulk amorphous and nanocrystalline metal alloys will be acquired by the University of Virginia. The instrumentation includes an oscillator power supply for use in melt-spinning and induction melting for metal alloys, a furnace for mechanical testing at high temperatures, a microhardness tester, upgrades and attachments to a scanning force microscope, and parts for building a machine for making cluster-assembled materials. Research activities that will use the requested equipment encompass the synthesis and characterization of metallic glasses and nanocrystalline materials, studies of size and shape effects on the coalescence of small-scale precipitates, and morphology and corrosion of metallic glass alloys. %%% The research fills a national need for both research and educational activities in the important area of new bulk metallic glasses and nanocrystalline materials. The properties of these new materials have sufficient potential that a considerable investment has been made abroad for their study. It is important that a strong effort be maintained in the US as well. ***

小行星9601651 弗吉尼亚大学将获得用于合成和表征大块非晶和纳米晶金属合金的设备。该仪器包括一个用于金属合金的熔纺和感应熔炼的振荡器电源，一个用于高温机械测试的熔炉，一个显微硬度测试仪，一个扫描力显微镜的升级和附件，以及用于建造一台制造集群组装材料的机器的部件。 将使用所要求的设备进行的研究活动包括金属玻璃和纳米晶体材料的合成和特性鉴定、研究大小和形状对小规模沉淀物聚结的影响以及金属玻璃合金的形态和腐蚀。 这项研究满足了国家在新的大块金属玻璃和纳米晶体材料这一重要领域的研究和教育活动的需要。这些新材料的性能具有足够的潜力，因此国外已对其进行了大量投资。在美国也必须保持强有力的努力。 ***
