Abstract The aim of this work is to prepare nanocomposites with excellent bioactivity and appropriate mechanical properties. In this regard, the nanocomposites, with different contents of borosilicate glass (BG) and carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA), were mixed and milled using a high-energy ball mill. Then, these milled powders were subjected to sintering at 750 ºC. In order to examine their phase composition, molecular structure and microstructure, X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively were used. Moreover, the DC electrical conductivity, and physical and mechanical properties of the prepared nanocomposites were also measured. In addition, the in vitro bioactivity of the sintered samples was evaluated using XRD and SEM. Unexpectedly; the results indicated that the successive increase in BG contents promoted the partial decomposition of CHA molecules at this lower sintering temperature. Also, it was responsible for the enhanced bioactivity behavior along with giving CHA better mechanical properties. However, the electrical conductivity of the examined samples exhibited an opposite trend where it decreased significantly with increasing BG content. According to the results obtained, the prepared samples are suitable for use in various biomedical applications.

Abstract In this work, a borosilicate glass sample (5SiO2-45B2O3-20Na2O-25CaO-5Ag2O) was added to nano-sized carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA) powders with different contents up to 20 wt.% to improve the bioactivity, antibacterial effect, physical and mechanical properties of the resulting nanocomposites. Then, these samples were mixed, milled with a high-energy ball mill, sintered at 700°C and subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to examine their structure, chemical composition and microstructure, respectively. Furthermore, the physical and mechanical properties of the sintered nanocomposites were also measured. Moreover, the in vitro bioactivity of the prepared nanocomposites was examined with XRD and SEM. Additionally, the antibacterial behavior of these samples was tested against E. coli and S. aureus by the disc-diffusion method. The results obtained pointed out that the sample with the highest content of BG possessed the best bioactivity, antibacterial effect, physical and mechanical properties.

Nanopowders of 3NiAl and Al2O3were synthesized from 3NiO and 5Al powders by high-energy ball milling. Nanocrystalline Al2O3reinforced composite was consolidated by high-frequency induction-heated sintering within 3 minutes from mechanochemically synthesized powders of Al2O3and 3NiAl. The advantage of this process is that it allows very quick densification to near theoretical density and inhibition grain growth. Nanocrystalline materials have received much attention as advanced engineering materials with improved physical and mechanical properties. The relative density of the composite was 97%. The average Vickers hardness and fracture toughness values obtained were 804 kg/mm2and 7.5 MPa⋅m1/2, respectively.

In this paper, the influence of toluene as the process control agent (PCA) and pre-milling on the extension of solid solubility of 7 wt.% Cr in Cu by mechanical alloying in a high energy ball mill was investigated. The structural evolution and microstructure were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques, respectively. The solid solution formation at different conditions was analyzed by copper lattice parameter change during the milling process. It was found that both the presence of PCA and pre-milling of Cr powder lead to faster dissolution of Cr . The mean crystallite size was also calculated and showed to be about 10 nm after 80 hours of milling.

An intermetallic compound c–NiZr and a mixture of elemental powders of nickel and zirconium [Ni50Zr50 (at. %)] have been mechanically ground (MG) and mechanically alloyed (MA), respectively, using a high-energy ball mill in various atmospheres. The products were characterized by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and chemical analysis as a function of milling time. An amorphous a–NiZr alloy was prepared by both MG and MA in an argon atmosphere. By MG of NiZr, an amorphous nitride a–NiZrN0.15 was synthesized in a nitrogen atmosphere, while a crystalline hydride c–NiZrH3 was formed in a hydrogen atmosphere. On the other hand, ZrN and ZrH2 were formed by MA in a nitrogen and a hydrogen atmosphere, respectively. The amorphization reaction was observed between ZrH2 and Ni by further MA in a hydrogen atmosphere, and a mixture of a–NiZrxHy (x < 1) and ZrH2 was obtained. However, no amorphization was observed by MA between ZrN and Ni in a nitrogen atmosphere. The effects of the milling atmosphere on the phase formations during MG and MA are discussed based on the gas absorption rate.

Si Content

Fe-Si alloy with a large Si content of 6.5 wt. % is obtained in nanocrystalline state by mechanical alloying of elemental iron and silicon powders. The mechanical alloying process was carried out using a high energy ball mill in argon atmosphere. Samples were collected after 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours of ball milling. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies indicate that after 4 hours of milling the Fe-Si alloy is formed. The powder magnetisation decreases upon increasing the milling time up to 4 hours as a consequence of the Fe-Si alloy formation. Upon heating, the DSC studies show the Fe3Si compound formation in the samples milled for milling times lower than 6 hours. Also, the Curie temperature of the alloy was evidenced.

A sum of mixed nickel-manganese ferrites, NixMn1-xFe2O4(x=0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7) were synthesized by classical ceramic route starting from stoichiometric mixtures of commercially MnO2, NiO and Fe2O3. The polycrystalline ferrites obtained by ceramic route were subjected to the mechanical milling procedure in order to reduce the particles size and to refine de crystallites size. A planetary high energy ball mill Fritch Pulverisette 4 was used and the milling time was up to 120 minutes. The ceramic and as-milled ferrites samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and laser particles size analysis (LPSA). After 15 minutes of milling the mean crystallites size for each one of the nickel-manganese ferrites is in nanometric range. After 120 minutes of mechanical milling for all ferrites types the mean crystallites size is at 6-8 nm, depending on Ni/Mn ratio. According to the SEM and LPSA investigations the milled ferrites powders consists in nanometric particles alongside of the micrometric ones. The micrometric particles are formed by multiple nanocrystallites.

This research focuses on the fabrication of aluminum wires treated with MoB2 nanoparticles and their effect on selected mechanical and thermal properties of the wires. These nanoparticles were obtained by fragmentation in a high-energy ball mill and then mechanically alloyed with pure aluminum powder to form Al/MoB2 pellets. The pellets were added to molten pure aluminum (99.5%) at 760 °C. Afterwards, the treated melt was cast into cylindrical ingots, which were cold-formed to the desired final diameter with intermediate annealing. X-ray diffraction and optical microscopy allowed characterizing the structure and microstructure of the material. The wires underwent tensile and bending tests, as well as electrical measurements. Finally, this research demonstrated how the mechanical properties of aluminum wires can be enhanced with the addition of MoB2 nanoparticles with minimal effects on the material resistivity.

Nanocrystalline Fe90Mg10 alloy samples were prepared by mechanical alloying process using planetary high energy ball mill. The prepared powders were characterized using differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) at high temperature, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Obtained results are discussed according to milling time. XRD at high temperature results also indicated that when the milling time increases, the lattice parameter and the mean level of grain size increase, whereas the microstrains decrease. The result of the observation by the TEM of the Fe-Mg powders prepared in different milling time, coercive fields derived and Saturation magnetization derived from the hysteresis curves in high temperature are discussed as a function of milling time.

The combination between synthetic polyolefin with natural polymer such as cellulose, starch and chitosan can stimulate biodegradation processes of waste plastics such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and other conventional plastics. In this work, PVC (polyvinyl chloride) biocomposite was prepared by compounding cellulose particle into PVC matrix in the presence of PVC-g-maleic anhydride as a compatibilizer. Cellulose nanoparticles were prepared by physical top-down method after milling by using High-Energy Ball-mill. The diameter size of cellulose nanoparticle was obtained as 170 nm. Cellulose particles were added as filler with ratio of 10-30 phr in PVC matrix. PVC biocomposites was prepared as a sheet film with the thickness of 0.3 mm by hot-press method. The addition of cellulose particle into PVC matrix was examined in various filler volumes and various cellulose particle sizes. The obtained PVC composite films were characterized by means of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Fourier-Transformed Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The rheological and mechanical properties of PVC and cellulose composites were investigated as a function of surface structure and filler volume fraction.

An elemental powder mixture corresponding to the Al3Ni2 phase stoichiometry was subjected to mechanical alloying in a high-energy ball mill. Products of this process after various milling times were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. The phase transformations occurring in the material throughout milling and during heating in a calorimeter were investigated by X-ray diffraction method. This study revealed that a metastable nanocrystalline NiAl intermetallic phase was formed during the mechanical alloying process. Heating of the synthesised powders in the calorimeter caused phase transformations, the product of which was an equilibrium Al3Ni2 intermetallic phase or a mixture of NiAl, Al3Ni2 and Al3Ni intermetallic phases, depending on the milling time and the temperature up to which the material was heated.
