Cryomilling is one of the few technologies available to fabricate a large quantity of nanostructured materials. No matter how exciting and promising a technology is, its ultimate realization is invariably dependent on economic success. Technical cost modeling was employed in this paper to analyze the processing cost of cryomilling. The results demonstrated that cryomilling has the potential to be commercially economical to fabricate nanostructured materials.
