Mostafa Eskandari was born in Iran and graduated from Isfahan University of Technology. His research interests are:

1. Mechanical behavior of nanocrystalline steels For this propose we use cryogenic cold rolling and annealing. The mechanical behavior of nano steels such as plastic deformation mechanisms, texture evolutions, failure mechanisms and its corrosion resistance will be investigated.

2. Microstructural evolutions and mechanical behavior of high Mn-steel High Mn-steels display remarkable properties (energy absorptions, combination high strength-elongation and impact pRecently, I am working on the corrosion behavior of Ni-Fe-Cr base alloy widely used in petrochemical and chemical industries. A variation of microstructure during the production processing influences the corrosion properties of the finished tube. The objective of this project is to investigate the influence of microstructure on the corrosion performance of Ni-Fe-Cr base alloy by using multiple electrochemical corrosion techniques, and then optimize the processing to obtain the desirable texture and microstructure for further improvement of corrosion resistance in various service environments.
