In this paper, a theoretical model based on multi-gene genetic programming (MGGP) approach has been applied to predict the structural and magnetic properties in nanocrystalline Fe–Ni powders prepared by mechanical alloying (MA) using a planetary ball mill. The MGGP model was used to correlate the input parameters (milling speed, chemical composition, and milling time), to output parameters (crystallite size and coercivity) of nanocrystalline Fe–Ni powders. The model obtained was tested with additional data to demonstrate its performance and prediction ability. The MGGP model is a robust and efficient method to find an accurate mathematical relationship between input and output data. A sensitivity analysis study was applied to determine the most influential milling parameters on the crystallite size and coercivity.

Ternary Fe72Al26Sn2 and Cu70Fe18Co12 alloys were obtained by mechanical alloying of pure Fe, Al, Sn, Cu and Co powders using a high energy ball mill. X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy supported by magnetic measurements have been applied to follow changes in the microstructure, phase composition and magnetic properties in dependence on milling time. With the increase of milling time all Al and Sn atoms dissolved in the bcc Fe and the final product of the MA process was the nanocrystalline Fe (Al, Sn) solid solution in a metastable state with a large amount of defects and mean crystallite size of 5 nm. However, the obtained crystallite size value is about 10 nm for the ball milled Cu70Fe18Co12 powders. The electron microscope observations show the morphology of powder particles. Magnetic properties of the nanocrystalline mechanically alloyed FeAlSn and CuFeCo were also investigated and were related to the microstructural changes.

The effects of milling atmosphere and mechanical alloying (MA) duration on the effective lattice parameter, crystallite size, lattice strain, and amorphization rate of the W-0.5 wt.% Ti powders were investigated. W-0.5 wt.% Ti powders were mechanically alloyed (MA’d) for 10 h and 20 h in a high energy ball mill. Moreover, morphology of the powders for various MA was analyzed using SEM microscopy. Their powder density was also measured by helium pycnometer. The dry milled agglomerated powders have spherical particle, while wet milled powders have layered morphology. Milling media and increasing of milling time significantly reduce the crystallite size. The smallest crystallite size is 4.93 nm which belonged to the dry milled powders measured by Lorentzian method after 20 hours’ MA. However, after 20 hours, MA’d powders show the biggest crystallite size, as big as 57.07 nm, measured with the same method in ethanol.

Synthesis of Cobalt-Erbium nano-ferrites with formulation CoErxFe2-xO4 (x = 0, 0.005, 0.010, 0.015, 0.020, 0.025, and 0.030) using technique of citrate-gel auto-combustion was done. Characterization of prepared powders was done using XRD, EDAX, FESEM, TEM, AFM, and FTIR spectroscopy, VSM: magnetic properties, respectively. XRD Rietveld Analysis, SEM, TEM, and EDAX analysis studied spectral, structural, and magnetic properties. XRD pattern of CEF nanoparticles confirms single-phase cubic spinal structure. The structural variables are given by lattice constant (a), lattice volume (v), the average crystallite size (D) and X-ray density (dx), bulk density (d), porosity (p), percentage of pore space (P%), surface area (s), strain(ε), dislocation density (δ), along with ionic radii, bond length and hoping length were calculated. SEM and TEM results reveal the homogeneous nature of particles accompanied by clusters having no impurity pickup. TEM analysis gives information about the particle size of nanocrystalline ferrite, while EDAX analysis confirms elemental composition. The emergence of two arch-shaped frequency bands (ν_1 and〖 ν〗_2) that represent vibrations at the tetrahedral site (A) and octahedral site(B) was indicated by spectra of FTIR. The XRD Rietveld analysis confirms crystallite size lying between 20.84 nm-14.40 nm, while SEM analysis indicates the formation of agglomerates and TEM analysis indicates particle size ranging between 24nm-16 nm. The XRD Rietveld analysis confirms crystallite size lying between 20.84nm-14.40nm, while SEM analysis indicates the formation of agglomerates and TEM analysis indicates particle size ranging between 24 nm - 16 nm. The magnetization measurements indicated that increasing Er3+ content in cobalt ferrites decreases magnetization from 60emu/g to 42emu/g while coercivity decreases (18990) as compared to CoFe2O4 (18998) in cobalt ferrites with doping. The present study investigates the effect of different compositions of Er3+ replaced for Fe on structural and magnetic properties of cobalt ferrites.
