Complex Metallic Alloys (CMA)
Complex Metallic Alloys: New metallic materials!Today: Metals-based industries today rely
largely on materials based on elementary metals and binary metallic alloys to which a number of additional elements are added in smaller quantities to tailor them for particular properties.
CMAs: Complex metallic alloys are formed with crystal structures based on giant unit cells containing many tens, up to more than a thousand atoms per cell. As a result, these materials can offer unique combinations of properties, which are excluded in conventional materials.

Step 3 : Collaboration (Pre-competitive and competitive) www.cma-ecnoe.net
First steps towards a collaboration Industry - NoE CMA
CMA, Network of ExcellenceProvide strategic consultancy and road maps for solutions
Provide analytical supportto industry
Offer training and education to industry
EnterprisesIdentify actual and future needs of future functionalities (mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of surfaces and bulk materials)Identify lack of knowledge (complex problems) where CMA-knowledge may have a high potential for solutions.Identify requirements for continuing education
