The fundamentals of mechanochemical processing

It has been demonstrated that the activation of chemical reactions by mechanical energy can lead to many interesting applications, ranging from waste processing to the production of advanced materials with novel microstructures and enhanced mechanical properties. In this article, the status of three types of mechanochemical processing is reviewed—mechanical milling, mechanical alloying, and reaction milling.
