In the present research, the microstructural features of ultrafine grained Cu-30 Zn alloy via ARB at room temperature were investigated by X-ray diffraction peak profile analysis. The character of dislocations was determined by analyzing the dislocation contrast factors. The average contrast factors for the different reflections obtained by determination of the type of dislocations and Burgers vectors in crystals. Also, using the modified Williamson–Hall and Warren–Averbach procedure size parameters, the effective outer cut-off radius and density of dislocations were determined. Assuming that the grain size distribution is log-normal, the median and the variance of the size distribution of sub grains were obtained. It was found that the crystallite size is reduced substantially, while the dislocation density increases up to 2 cycles of ARB. After 2nd cycle, dislocation density decreases. This is attributed to the occurrence of dynamic restoration process which takes place during next ARB cycles.

In this paper, the techniques of SQUID magnetometry and line broadening in x-ray diffraction are employed for determining an important parameter for catalysts, viz. the particle size distribution. Magnetization versus temperature (5 K–400 K) and magnetization versus field (up to 55 kOe) data are reported for an α–Fe2O3 based catalyst. After determining the region of superparamagnetism, the distribution function f(r) is determined assuming a log normal distribution and Langevin paramagnetism of superparamagnetic particles. The distribution is found to be fairly symmetric with center near 65 Å and range of 35 to 115 Å. From line-broadening of Bragg peaks in x-ray diffraction, particle radii varying between 75 Å and 110 Å are obtained. These results are compared with the reported Mössbauer measurements of Huffman et al. on the same sample.

The dislocation density of plastically deformed oxygen free copper (OFC) was evaluated by X-ray diffraction profile analysis with synchrotron radiation. The modified Williamson-Hall and modified Warren-Averbach methods were applied to the analysis. The dislocation densities of OFC samples with compressive plastic strains of 1 % and 4 % were 5.1×1014 m-2 and 9.2×1014 m-2, respectively.

In this study, the tensile deformation behavior of an electron beam melted Ti−6Al−4V alloy was examined by in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) line-profile analysis. The as-built Ti−6Al−4V alloy specimen showed a fine acicular microstructure that was produced through the decomposition of the α′-martensite during the post-melt exposure to high temperatures. Using high-energy synchrotron radiation, XRD line-profile analysis was successfully applied for examining the evolution of dislocation structures not only in the α-matrix but also in the nanosized, low-fraction β-phase precipitates located at the interfaces between the α-laths. The results indicated that the dislocation density was initially higher in the β-phase and an increased dislocation density with increasing applied tensile strain was quantitatively captured in each constitutive phase. It can be thus concluded that the EBM Ti−6Al−4V alloy undergoes a cooperative plastic deformation between the constituent phases in the duplex microstructure. These results also suggested that XRD line-profile analysis combined with highenergy synchrotron XRD measurements can be utilized as a powerful tool for characterizing duplex microstructures in titanium alloys.
