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.

This paper using high energy ball milling(HEM), researched the technology of preparation of Al compound material reinforced by CNT. Researched the different milling time, rotary speed, amount of CNT and sinter technology on properties of hardness and density. Preparation the Al-CNT at milling time about 30 to 100 min, rotational speed is about 300-600/rpm.the wt% of CNT is 0-5%, Analyzed the XRD patterns、SEM and STM micrograph, the results showed the Al material could be reinforced by CNT using HEM. the hardness of Al-CNT is 75 HB and the density is 2.65 g/cm3 when milling 90 min and CNT 3%.

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.

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.
