Cu-Zn alloy was prepared by high energy ball milling of elemental copper and zinc by the Simoloyer attrition mill, the different parameters such as milling time, ball-to-powder ratio and rotational speeds were analyzed. The results show that the different Cu-Zn alloy phase can be produced by different ball milling parameters, It has been found that milling time is highly significant to refining process, and the ratios of ball to powder are also benefited to the new phase form.

Solid lubricants have had good acceptance when used in problem areas where the conventional lubricants cannot be applied: under extreme temperatures, high charges and in chemically reactive environments. In case of materials manufactured by powder metallurgy, particles of solid lubricants powders can be easily incorporated to the matrix volume at the mixing stage. In operation, this kind of material provides a thin layer of lubricant that prevents direct contact between the surfaces. The present study aimed at incorporating particles of second phase lubricant (h-BN) into a matrix of nickel by high-energy ball milling in order to obtain a self-lubricating composite with homogeneous phase distribution of lubricant in the matrix. Mixtures with 10 vol.% of h-BN varying the milling time of 5, 10, 15 and 20 hours and their relationship ball/powder of 20:1 were performed. The effect of milling time on the morphology and microstructure of the powders was studied by X-ray diffraction, SEM and EDS. The composite powders showed reduction in average particle size with increasing milling time and the milling higher than 5 hours resulted in equiaxial particles and the formation of nickel boride.

The high energy ball milling of Ni-50 atom % Si elemental powder mixtures was carried out using a planetary mill. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the phase evolutions during the high energy ball milling period. The microstructure morphology of the powders milled different time was determined by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The beginning time of mechanical alloying was determined by back scattered electrons (BSE) images. The XRD patterns showed that the nickel peaks intensity and the silicon peaks intensity obviously decreased with milling time increased to 1 hour. BSE images revealed that nickel and silicon powders were not blended uniformly for 1 hour of milling. It was found that NiSi formed as the milling time increased to 5 hours, simultaneously, the nickel peaks and the silicon peaks almost disappeared. That means the obvious mechanical alloying started from 5 hours of milling. BSE images agreed with the result analyzed from XRD patterns. With the milling time further increased from 10 to 75 hours, the NiSi peaks decreased gradually, at the same time, the Ni2Si peaks appeared and then increased gradually.

High energy ball milling was used to preparation SiC/Al composites flakes. The research found the milling parameter of high energy milling was the ball/powder ration is 20:1, the rotary speed is 800 r/min, the milling time is 100min.Also researched the molding process of SiC/Al composites, the change of grain size and the weight fraction of the SiC, The research also found the mechanical properties of SiC/Al composites affected by the molding process. It was found that to reduce particle size and increasing of weight fraction of SiC, tensile strength of the SiC/Al composites increased. When the weight fraction of SiC in the SiC/Al composites is about 16%, the mechanical properties of SiC/Al composites about the hardness and tensile strength also get the high-point, the hardness and tensile strength is about 95HB and 248MPa.
