Mechanical alloying of an immiscible α-Fe2O3-SnO2ceramic

Structural Transformation of Immiscible Metals Induced by Mechanical Alloying

X-ray absorption fine structure(XAFS) is used to investigate the local structural change of Fe60Cu40 and FegoCu20 with the ball milling time. The XAFS results verify that the solid solution of mechanically alloyed Fe-Cu samples are inhomogeneous. We propose that the bcc to fcc structural transformation of Fe small particles of Fe60Cuq0(160h) is induced by interfacial Cu atoms dissolving in smal...

Mechanical alloying of an immiscible - Fe 2 O 3 - SnO 2 ceramic

Surface alloying of immiscible metals induced by surface state shift

By using first principles calculations, it is found that the noble metal atoms Ag, Au and Cu would like to occupy the vacancy sites of the W(0 0 1) or Mo(0 0 1) surface to form the substitutional surface alloys, despite the fact that they do not like to form alloy in the bulk. The electronic local function (ELF) for these substitutional surface alloys shows that there is no obvious chemical bon...

A nanoglass alloying immiscible Fe and Cu at the nanoscale.

Synthesized from ultrafine particles with a bottom-up approach, nanoglasses are of particular importance in pursuing unique properties. Here, we design a metallic nanoglass alloy from two components of ∼Cu64Sc36 and ∼Fe90Sc10 nanoglasses. With nanoalloying mutually immiscible Fe and Cu, the properties of the nanoglass alloys can be tuned by varying the proportions of the ∼Fe90Sc10 component. Th...

Raney-nickel Catalysts Produced by Mechanical Alloying

Raney catalysts were prepared by a combination of mechanical alloying and leaching as an alternative in the synthesis of Raney-Nickel catalysts. Binary Al-Ni and ternary Al-Ni-Fe alloys with nominal compositions Al65Ni35, Al75Ni25, Al65Ni30Fe5, Al75Ni20Fe5 (in atomic percent), were processed from pure elemental powders; they consisted mainly of the intermetallic B2 AlNi phase. Aluminum was sele...
