Re:  A new quarterly journal

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MECHANOCHEMISTRY AND 
MECHANICAL ALLOYING

The effect of mechanical stress on the course of chemical reactions and 
physico-chemical transformations of solids is one of the oldest 
empirically observed facts in human history. However, 
mechanochemistry has only developed into an exact science in the last 
three or four decades. Beginning with the early 1980s, the entry of 
mechanochemistry into modern preparatory techniques has assumed an 
offensive character. New methods for mechanochemical synthesis and 
modifying precursor substances for structural and functional ceramics 
have been developed. Mechanical alloying was invented as a process for 
producing oxide dispersion-strengthened alloys, superalloys, high-
temperature aluminium composites, intermetallics, nanocristalline, 
amorphous and other nonequilibrium materials. Mechnochemical 
synthesis of organic substances, binding of drugs on solid carrier, 
preparation of catalysts and biologically active substances should be 
mentioned amongst the most promising areas of application. Mechanical 
behavior prediction for materials in active environment have been based
on the mechanochemical and chemomechanical effects.
     Rapid progress in mechanochemistry is documented by an ever 
increasing number of original papers in journals specialising in various 
areas of science and technology. 
The International Journal of Mechanochemistry and Mechanical 
Alloying is launched in an attempt to prevent dispersion of knowledge 
and promote further progress in theory and application.

S c o p e   of   t h e   J o u r n a l:
The International Journal of Mechanochemistry and Mechanical 
Alloying  (IJMMA) presents original contributions and reviews 
covering theoretical, experimental and application aspects of solid state 
mechanochemistry with special attention to reaction milling in 
mechanical alloying.
The main part of each issue will be devoted to articles on:
--   changes in the structure taking place during stressing of solids 
(physics and chemistry of mechanically induced defects in deformed or 
dispersed solids)
--   mechanically stimulated interactions at condensed matter interfaces 
(studies of forced mass transport in mechanochemical synthesis and 
mechanical formation of alloys, composites, intermetallics, and other 
nonequilibrium materials).
Related technological applicatons in advanced material preparation, 
tribology, stress corrosion, pharmacy, extraction metallurgy, polymer 
processing and other areas of modern industry will also be included.
