Precursor powders for BaCe0.2Zr0.7Y0.1O3-?(BCZY27) ceramics were synthesized by a modified Pechinimethod and calcined at 900?C for 12 h. The calcined BCZY27 powders were milled in eccentric and in high energy mill with the addition of 2 and 4mol% ZnO as sintering aid. The effects of milling and sintering aids on the sinterability and electrical conductivity were studied. The linear shrinkage in thermomechanical analyses started at 1050?C for the BCZY27 with 4mol% ZnO processed in eccentric mill. Theoretical density above of 90%TD was obtained for the BCZY27 milled with 4mol% ZnO and sintered at 1400?C for 4h. X-ray diffraction analysis of the BCZY27 ceramics sintered at 1400?C confirmed the presence of BaCe0.2Zr0.7Y0.1O3-? and Y0.4Ce0.6O1.8 phases. The incorporation of Zn into perovskite lattice leads to the secondary phase formation. SEM and EDS analyses confirmed the presence of Y0.4Ce0.6O1.8 phase. The sintering was assisted by BaO-ZnO eutectic, which was reflected by the increase of activation energy values for grain boundary conduction. The milling processing did not affect the conductivity properties. The obtained BCZY27 dense sample has conductivity of 7.60 ? 10?3 S/cm at 500?C.

The milling process of elemental Ti-2Ta-22Si-11B and Ti-6Ta-22Si-11B (at-%) powder mixtures were performed in a planetary Fritsch P-5 ball mill using stainless steel vials (225 mL) and hardened steel balls (19 mm diameter). Ball-to-powder weight ratio of 10:1 and a rotary speed of 300 rpm were adopted, varying the milling time. Wet milling (isopropyl alcohol) for 20 more minutes was used to increase the yield powder in to the vial. Following the Ti-Ta-Si-B powders milled for 600 min were heat-treated at 1100°C for 1 h in order to obtain the equilibrium structures. The milled powders and heat-treated samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectrometry. Supersaturated Ti solid solutions were formed during ball milling of Ti-Ta-Si-B powders while that the Ti5Si3 phase was formed after milling for 620 min of the Ta-richer powder mixture only. The particles sizes were initially increased during the initial milling times, and the wet milling provided the yield powder into the vials. A large amount of pores was found in both the sintered samples which presented the formation of the TiSS,(ss-solid solution) Ti6Si2B and TiB.

The present work reports on the microstructure and oxidation resistance of Ni-25Nb, Ni-20Nb-5Ta and Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloys produced by high-energy ball milling and subsequent sintering. The sintered samples were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectrometry, and static oxidation tests. Homogeneous microstructures of the binary and ternary alloys indicated the major presence of the β-Ni3Nb compound as matrix, which dissolved large amounts of tantalum. Consequently, the β-Ni3Nb peaks moved toward the direction of smaller diffraction angles. Iron contamination lower than 6.7 at.-% was detected by EDS analysis, which were picked-up during the previous ball milling process. After the static oxidation tests (1100°C for 4 h) the sintered Ni-25Nb, Ni-20Nb-5Ta and Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloys presented mass gains of 31.5%, 30.5% and 28.8%, respectively. Despite the higher densification of the Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloy, the results suggested that the tantalum addition contributed to improve the oxidation resistance of the β-Ni3Nb compound.

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.

This paper presents a study on the effect of milling speed on the synthesis of Cu-WC nanocomposites by mechanical alloying (MA). The Cu-WC nanocomposite with nominal composition of 25 vol.% of WC was produced in-situ via MA from elemental powders of copper (Cu), tungsten (W), and graphite (C). These powders were milled in the high-energy “Pulverisette 6” planetary ball mill according to composition Cu-34.90 wt% W-2.28 wt% C. The powders were milled in different milling speed; 400 rpm, 500 rpm, and 600 rpm. The milling process was conducted under argon atmosphere by using a stainless steel vial and 10 mm diameter of stainless steel balls, with ball-to-powder weight ratio (BPR) 10:1. The as-milled powders were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). XRD result showed the formation of W2C phase after milling for 400 rpm and as the speed increased, the peak was broadened. No WC phase was detected after milling. Increasing the milling speed resulted in smaller crystallite size of Cu and proven to be in nanosized. Based on SEM result, higher milling speed leads to the refinement of hard W particles in the Cu matrix. Up to the 600 rpm, the unreacted W particles still existed in the matrix showing 20 hours milling time was not sufficient to completely dissolve the W.

Porous Ti-Nb alloys are promising candidates for biomedical applications. In the present study, alloy powders containing 60 wt-% Nb were prepared by high-energy milling of Nb, Ti, and/or TiH2 powders. The high-energy milling process was carried out in a planetary ball mill. The starting and as-milled materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Elemental (Nb, and Ti) and TiH2 powder mixtures with composition Nb-40wt%Ti were mechanically alloyed for 2 to 30 h. The formation of a BCC Nb(Ti) solid solution by high-energy milling using elemental Ti powder to produce Nb-40Ti was observed after milling for 30 h. A HCP-Ti solid solution was formed after milling for 30 h due to the partial decomposition of titanium hydride powder mixture during high-energy milling.

The current study is aimed to investigate the tribological properties of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) reinforced with organoclay Cloisite (C15A). Nanocomposites are prepared using a high energy ball milling process followed by hot pressing. Three different loadings of 0.5 wt.%, 1.5 wt.%, and 3 wt.% of C15A, respectively, are used as reinforcement. Results from the ball-on-disk wear tests showed that nanocomposites reinforced with 1.5 wt.% of C15A exhibited best wear resistance and lower coefficient of friction (COF), with C15A reducing the wear rate by 41% and the COF by 38%, when compared to the pristine UHMWPE. These improvements are attributed to the uniform dispersion of the nanosized clay platelets preventing large-scale material removal and formation of a thin tenacious, continuous transfer film on the counterface for C15A organoclay composites. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and optical profilometry are used to characterize the morphology of the nanocomposites and the wear tracks. SEM images of worn surfaces indicated more abrasive wear for the case of pristine UHMWPE as compared to organoclay composites.

Al based intermetallic materials are commonly susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement reaction. Water vapor in the air reacts with the aluminum in the alloy and releasing hydrogen. Thus, the aid of this work is to know how much hydrogen can be released when the embrittlement reaction is induced inside the milling container. For this purpose the CuAl2intermetallic material was made by conventional castings methods and then subjected to high-energy ball milling in water. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern, attenuated total reflectance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). After the milling process, the amount of hydrogen released was correlated with the other reaction products obtained during the reaction. These products were primarily aluminum hydroxides. The amount of hydrogen that can be released is similar to the theoretical amount possible that can be released.

The amorphization process by mechanical alloying in the Fe-Si alloy system has been studied. High energy ball milling has been applied for alloys synthesis. X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to monitor the structural and phase transformations through the different stages of milling. The addition of amorphous boron in the milling process and the increase of the milling time were used to improve the formation of the amorphous phase. Heating the samples resulted in the crystallization of the synthesized amorphous alloys and the appearance of equilibrium intermetallic compounds.

The paper presents a study on the effect of high energy milling to the crystallite size and lattice strain of α-alumina in zirconia and corundum mills. A Fritsch Pervesette 7 which has a maximum milling speed of 1100 rpm was used for this comparison. Milled samples were analyzed using the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) technique to calculate for the crystallite size using the Scherrer method while lattice strain was determined by the Tangent method. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was also used to determine changes in the morphology of the alumina powder sample after the milling process. Zirconia was found to be the better abrasive material and the optimum conditions used to obtain the smallest crystallite size of 51.2 nm are milling speed and time of 1100 rpm and 180 minutes respectively.
