Amorphization of CuZr Based Alloy Powders by Mechanical Milling

The crystallization process of amorphous Al80Fe20 alloy powders prepared by ball milling

The amorphous-to-crystalline transition during thermal annealing of amorphous Al80Fe20 alloy powders prepared by ball milling was investigated by means of magnetothermal analysis and X-ray di€raction. Following structural relaxation and stress relief processes, a metastable phase precipitates during primary crystallization, and a mixture of intermetallic compound (h-Al13Fe4) and fcc Al is devel...

Synthesis of Nonstoichiometric Amorphous Mg-Based Alloy Electrodes by Mechanical Milling

Effect of Mechanical Milling on the Morphologyand Structural Evaluation of Al-Al2O3 Nanocomposite Powders

The morphological and microstructural changes during mechanical milling of Al powder mixed with 2.5, 5 and 10 wt.% Al2O3 particles were studied. The milling was performed in a planetary ball mill for various times up to 20 h. The produced composite powders were investigated using X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) to elucidate the role of particle size, secondary phase content and milling time on ...

Milling-induced Amorphization in a Chalcogenide Compound

The mechanism of milling-induced amorphization was studied by investigating the structural evolution during amorphization via high-energy ball milling of a chalcogenide compound, i.e. Ag3PS4 crystal. The gradual decrease in intensity of the XRD diffraction peaks of Ag3PS4 milled for different durations indicates that the degree of amorphization was enhanced by the mechanical milling. The forwar...

Hydrogen evolution activity of NiMo-MoO2 produced by mechanical milling

In this study, mechanical alloying was done by a high-energy planetary ball milling technique. A mixture of NiO and MoO3 and graphite powders were used as initial materials. After milling of powder mixture with 40 wt.% additional graphite, a temperature of 400, 550 and 1000 °C for 1 h was considered for the heat treatment of powder mixture. Also, powder mixtures containing 60, 80 and 100 wt.% a...
