A Ti3AlC2/Al2O3 nanocomposite was synthesized using Ti, Al, C and TiO2 as raw materials by a novel combination of high-energy milling and hot pressing. The reaction path of the 3Ti-8C-16Al-9TiO2 mixture of powders was investigated, and the results show that the transitional phases TiC, TixAly and Al2O3 are formed in high-energy milling first, and then TixAly is transformed to the TiAl phase during the hot pressing. Finally, a reaction between TiC and TiAl occurs to produce Ti3AlC2 and the nanosized Ti3AlC2/Al2O3 composite is synthesized. The Ti3AlC2/Al2O3 composite possessed a good combination of mechanical properties with a hardness of 6.0 GPa, a flexural strength of 600 MPa, and a fracture toughness (K1C) of 5.8 MPa?m1/2. The strengthening and toughening mechanisms were also discussed.

The powder Cu-Al2O3 composites were produced by high-energy milling. Various combinations of particle size and mixtures and approximately constant amount of Al2O3 were used as the starting materials. These powders were separately milled in air for up to 20 h in a planetary ball mill. The copper matrix was reinforced by internal oxidation and mechanical alloying. During the milling, internal oxidation of pre-alloyed Cu-2 mass %-Al powder generated 3.7 mass % Al2O3 nano-sized particles finely dispersed in the copper matrix. The effect of different size of the starting copper and Al2O3 powder particles on the lattice parameter, lattice distortion and grain size, as well as on the size, morphology and microstructure of the Cu-Al2O3 composite powder particles was studied.

The application of nanomaterials in cement by replacement method in concrete is becoming a trend in cement research. The utilisation of nanosilica, nanoalumina, titanium oxide and others are proven to enhance properties of concrete. The major effect of nanomaterials is its size in which it contributes to the packing theory due to increase in the surface area. nanokaolin which comes from kaolin, was tansformed to the nanoform by using high energy milling. The process of developing nanokaolin by using high energy milling is referred to process top to bottom approach in nanoprocessing technique. In this research, the nanokaolin will be used as an additive in cement by 7% weight of cement. Four (4) cement replacement materials catered by using metakaolin on weight basis from 0, 10%, 20% and 30% will also be adopted. To determine the fresh state, cement paste contains nanokaolin and metakaolin are tested its standard consistency and setting time. The effect of the inclusion of the nanokaolin as additive in cement paste that also contains metakaolin as cement replacement material will be investigated. It was found the inclusion of 7% nanokaolin increases the water demand of the cement paste level of metakaolin replacement. In addition to that, the setting time namely initial and final set was been delayed as compared to that of plain OPC. The nanoparticles of nanokaolin and also finer particles of metakaolin increase the surface area and refining the internal structure of cement paste which reduce the flow capabilities of cement paste containing nanokaolin and metakaolin.
