What Does GP Stand For?
GP stands for Guinier Preston Zone
The Guinier Preston Zone (GP) refers to a specific structural region within metallic glasses and some crystalline materials, characterized by a distinct arrangement of atoms. This zone typically demonstrates unique mechanical and thermodynamic properties, influencing the material's overall performance. Understanding the GP is crucial for advancing applications in materials science, particularly in developing stronger and more resilient alloys.
