Phase transition of Fe–18Cr–8Ni, Fe–15Cr–15Ni and Fe–15Cr–25Ni alloys during mechanical alloying (MA) and after subsequent annealing as studied. For Fe–18Cr–8Ni and Fe–15Cr–15Ni the resulting structure by MA was a nanostructured single-phase BCC solid solution ( ) which iffers from that predicted from equilibrium phase diagram. Furthermore, the equilibrium structure was not achieved after heat ...

Nickel and aluminum powders were mechanically alloyed with 10 or 30 vol.% refractory metal powders (molybdenum or tungsten) for times up to 50 h. Intermetallic synthesis takes place after lo-20 h alloying, with concomitant dispersion of the inert refractory metal phase, resulting in an NiAl matrix containing fine refractory dispersoids. The reactive synthesis step is direct, without intermediat...

A novel metal matrix composite CrMnFeCoNi with Y₂O₃ as reinforcement phase was designed and manufactured by mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering. After sintering at 900 °C for 5 min, the microstructure consisted of a FCC matrix and Y₂O₃ nanoparticles. The addition of 0.25 wt % Y₂O₃ increased the room temperature tensile strength of the CrMnFeCoNi base from 868 MPa to 1001 MPa, while t...
