Nanocrystalline materials are those created from nanosized particles, in this case copper particles. A single nanosized particle &#8212; called a grain &#8212; is the size of a virus or even smaller. Nanocrystalline materials consist of a mixture of grains and the interface between those grains, called grain boundaries.\u00a0  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2010\/03\/100325151347.htm\">Click here to read more&#8230;<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(ScienceDaily, March 26, 2010) \u2014 Self-repairing materials within nuclear reactors may one day become a reality as a result of research by Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists.\u00a0 In a paper appearing March 26 in the journal Science, Los Alamos researchers report a surprising mechanism that allows nanocrystalline materials to heal themselves after suffering radiation-induced damage.
