Characterization and Optimization of Cu-Al2O3 Nanocomposites Synthesized via High Energy Planetary Milling: A Morphological and Structural Study

This study examines the synthesis and characterization of a copper–alumina nanocomposite powder. Mechanical milling is employed to synthesize powder, holistic analysis conducted evaluate its morphological structural properties. TEM reveals presence alumina particles within copper matrix, indicating formation both coarse fine at different stages synthesis. XRD demonstrates reduction in copper’s crystallite size with increasing time, attributed defects generated crystal lattice during milling. Additionally, statistical utilized determine significance factors influencing process. ANOVA that time has significant impact on particle while temperature their interaction do not exhibit effects. Optimization techniques are identify solutions meet specified constraints for temperature, size, differential thermal response, resulting favorable desired ranges. The highlights efficacy mechanical producing powders enhanced properties, offering promising prospects advanced materials various industries. results provide valuable insights into microstructure phase distribution application Williamson–Hall method proves be effective determining synthesized
