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.

ZrB2 and HfB2 with incorporation of SiC are being considered as structural materials for elevated temperature applications. We used high energy ball milling of micron-size powders to increase lattice distortion enhanced inter-diffusion to get uniform distribution of SiC and reduce grain growth during Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). High-energy planetary ball milling was performed on ZrB2 or HfB2 with 20vol% SiC powders for 24 and 48 hrs. The particle size distribution and crystal micro-strain were examined using Dynamic Light Scattering Technique and x-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. XRD spectra were analyzed using Williamson-Hall plots to estimate the crystal micro-strain. The particle size decreased, and the crystal micro-strain increased with the increasing ball milling time. The SPS consolidation was performed at 32 MPa and 2,000°C. The SEM observation showed a tremendous decrease in SiC segregation and a reduction in grain size due to high energy ball milling of the precursor powders. Flexural strength of the SPS consolidated composites were studied using Four-Point Bend Beam test, and the micro-hardness was measured using Vickers micro-indenter with 1,000 gf load. Good correlation is observed in SPS consolidated ZrB2+SiC with increased micro-strain as the ball milling time increased: grain size decreased (from 9.7 to 3.2 μm), flexural strength (from 54 to 426 MPa) and micro-hardness (from 1528 to 1952 VHN) increased. The correlation is less evident in HfB2+SiC composites, especially in micro-hardness which showed a decrease with increasing ball milling time.

The preparation, mechanical properties, grain size and thermal property of bulk nanocrystalline Cu (BNC-Cu) were investigated in this paper. BNC-Cu can be produced by in situ consolidation of pure Cu powder with high-energy ball milling at room temperature; the average grain sizes of Cu samples decreased with the increasing of ball milling time before 9 h because the grain refining velocity was bigger than the grain growing velocity in this stage. When the ball milling time was beyond 9 h, the average grain size reached a steady minimum value about 27.5 nm. The microhardness of BNC-Cu samples increased with the extending of ball milling time in the first 9 h because the dominating factor was the hardening effect caused by grain refinement and work hardening rather than softening in this stage. BNC-Cu gained its highest microhardness about 1.59GPa when the ball milling time reached 9 h. Subsequently, the microhardness of BNC-Cu slightly fluctuated around this value. Because there were numerous triple grain boundaries and the interaction among different crystal defects in BNC-Cu, BNC-Cu showed outstanding thermal stability when it was annealed in the range of 100°C to 400°C.

In this paper, carbon nanotubes (CNT)-reinforced aluminum (Al) matrix composites were fabricated by High-Energy Ball Milling, the objective was to investigate the evolvement of particle size, density and hardness of CNT-Al composites with increasing wt% CNT, and analyzed the micrographs of mixture powders at different milling time. The results showed that the addition of CNT can play a role of grinding aid to refine grain, improve the hardness and decrease the density, and CNT can be homogeneous dispersed in the matrix with increasing ball-milling time, it also showed that too much CNT was no help on hardness, this attributed to clustering of CNT, the proper addition of CNT was 2wt%, and the mixture powders could reached a state of equilibrium between fracturing and cold-welding at 75min.
