And Performance

Iron titanate photocatalysts were synthesized by the high-energy ball milling method with titanium ore as the starting material. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), thermal gravity and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), UV-visible diffuse reflectance absorption spectra (UV-Vis), photoluminescence emission spectra (PL) and photocatalytic degradation measurement were conducted to characterize the structure, surface status, UV-visible light response and performance of the obtained sample. After low temperature calcination (above 400 oC), the photocatalytic activity of iron titanate catalyst decreased gradually, which was mainly due to the decrease of surface hydroxyls and reactant adsorption capability.

BaGd2ZnO5:Eu3+ phosphors were synthesized at sintering temperatures of 800, 900, 1000, 1100 and 1200 °C by high-energy ball milling method. The crystallinity, surface morphology and photoluminescence properties of phosphors were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and luminescence spectrophotometry, respectively. The XRD results indicate that the crystallinity of the powder was improved and the powder shows a orthorhombic structure as the sintering temperature increased. The emission spectra of BaGd2ZnO5phosphors excited at 280 nm exhibit a series of shaped peaks assigned to the5D0→7FJ(J=0, 1, 2, 3) transitions, and luminescence intensity was increased with increasing sintering temperature. The FE-SEM images indicate that the size and shape of particles are regular.

In this study, ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites were prepared by high-energy ball milling technique and characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), UV–visible spectroscopy and dielectric spectroscopy. The amount of Fe2O3 in the ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites was varied at the rates of 1[Formula: see text]wt.%, 3[Formula: see text]wt.% and 5[Formula: see text]wt.% in order to investigate its influence on the structural, optical and dielectric properties of the nanocomposites. XRD patterns of nanocomposites revealed no shift in peak positions and hence confirmed the formation of composites after ball milling. Further, it was observed from FESEM analysis that Fe2O3 particles were distributed randomly on the ZnO matrix of the nanocomposites. ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites reveal extended optical absorption in the range of 400–600[Formula: see text]nm from UV studies. The dielectric constant and loss of the nanocomposites decrease exponentially with increase in frequency. The composition and frequency dependences of the dielectric constant, dielectric loss and AC conductivity are explained based on the Maxwell–Wagner effect and Koop’s theory.

In this paper, we investigated the influence of additional compounds of Dy-Nb-Al, Nd-Cu-Al… on the coercivity of the sintered Nd16.5Fe77B6.5 magnets. The additional compounds were first prepared by arc-melting method and then ground into particles with size in the range of 40 - 80 nm using a high energy ball milling method. After that, the additional powder were mixed with micrometer Nd-Fe-B powder before magnetic anisotropic pressing, vacuum sintering and annealing. The structure of the magnets was thoroughly analyzed using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy techniques. The magnetic properties of the magnets were investigated on a pulsed field magnetometer. The results show that the coercivity of the sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets can be improved by introducing additional nanoparticles to their grain boundaries. The improvement of the coercivity of the magnets is clearly dependent on composition and fraction of the additional compounds. The coercivity has been enhanced 40% for the magnets by adding 3 wt% of the Dy-free compound of Nd40Cu30Al30.

The purpose of this study was to improve the dielectric, magnetic, and thermal properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites using recycled Fe2O3 (rFe2O3) nanofiller. Hematite (Fe2O3) was recycled from mill scale waste and the particle size was reduced to 11.3 nm after 6 h of high-energy ball milling. Different compositions (5–25 wt %) of rFe2O3 nanoparticles were incorporated as a filler in the PTFE matrix through a hydraulic pressing and sintering method in order to fabricate rFe2O3–PTFE nanocomposites. The microstructure properties of rFe2O3 nanoparticles and the nanocomposites were characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The thermal expansion coefficients (CTEs) of the PTFE matrix and nanocomposites were determined using a dilatometer apparatus. The complex permittivity and permeability were measured using rectangular waveguide connected to vector network analyzer (VNA) in the frequency range 8.2–12.4 GHz. The CTE of PTFE matrix decreased from 65.28×10−6/°C to 39.84×10−6/°C when the filler loading increased to 25 wt %. The real (ε′) and imaginary (ε″) parts of permittivity increased with the rFe2O3 loading and reached maximum values of 3.1 and 0.23 at 8 GHz when the filler loading was increased from 5 to 25 wt %. A maximum complex permeability of 1.1−j0.07 was also achieved by 25 wt % nanocomposite at 10 GHz.

B2 Structure

The structural and electrochemical properties of the Ti–Ru–Fe–O system have been studied over the whole ternary metal compositional range, keeping constant the oxygen content at 30 at.%. The phase diagram was explored systematically by varying the composition of the material along one of the following axes: (i) constant Ru content of 16 at. %; (ii) constant Ti/Ru ratio of 2; (iii) constant Ti/Fe ratio of 1.6. For O/Ti ratios equal or below unity, the most prominent peaks observed in the x-ray diffraction patterns belong to a B2 structure. For O/Ti ratio larger than unity, stable titanium oxide phases are formed, which coexist with a cubic Fe-like or hcp-Ru like phases depending on the Fe/Ru ratio. Powder compositions with stoichiometry close to Ti2RuFeO2 are of interest due to good electrocatalytic properties, long-term stability, and low Ru content.

Microwave Absorbing

The NdFe magnetic absorbing materials were prepared by rapid solidification and high-energy ball milling method. The effect of high-energy ball milling on particle morphology, organizational structure and microwave absorbing properties of NdFe magnetic absorbing materials were analyzed with the aid of X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope and vector network analysis. The results show that the Nd2Fe17 and α-Fe phase are refined, the particles become smaller and thinner; the span-ratio of the particles increases along with time during the process of high-energy ball milling; and meanwhile, the frequency of absorbing peak reduces. The absorbing bandwidth broadens as the increase of the time of ball milling, except that of 48h.The minimum reflectance of the powder decreases from -22dB to - 44dB under the circumstances that the time of high energy ball milling reaches 48h and the thickness of the microwave absorbing coating is 1.5mm. But it rebounds to about - 6dB when the time of ball milling reaches 72h.

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.
