N2 - Processing bulk nanoscrystalline materials for structural applications still poses a significant challenge, particularly in achieving an industrially viable process. In this context, recent work has proved that complex nano-scale steel structures can be formed by solid reaction at low temperatures. These nanocrystalline bainitic steels present the highest strength ever recorded, unprecedented ductility, fatigue on par with commercial bearing steels and exceptional rollingsliding wear performances. A description of the characteristics and significance of these remarkable structures in the context of the atomic mechanism of transformation is provided.
