Production of Fe-TiN and Fe-Ti(N,C) composite powders by mechanical alloying

Mechanical alloying of Cu and Fe induced by severe plastic deformation of a Cu-Fe composite

A filamentary composite elaborated by cold drawing was processed by High Pressure Torsion (HPT). The nanostructure resulting from this severe plastic deformation (SPD) was investigated thanks to scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and 3D atom probe. Although the mutual solubility of Cu and Fe is extremely low at room temperature in equilibrium condi...

Fe-doped SnO2 obtained by mechanical alloying

In this work, iron-doped SnO2 powders were prepared by two methods: mechanical alloying and mechanochemical alloying with successive thermal treatment. The influence of different milling conditions such as ball to powder weight ratio, milling time, rotation velocity of supporting disc and the type of iron starting reactive and their Fe concentration on the structural and magnetic properties of ...

Production of Fe-C Powders with Improved Structure

Production of Fe-C alloy powders by mechanical alloying was studied. Fe and graphite elemental powder mixtures containing 0.8 and 1.5wt.% graphite were mechanically alloyed using a planetary ball mill. The structural changes of powder particles during mechanical alloying were studied by x-ray diffractometery, scanning electron microscopy and microhardness measurements. For both compositions, me...

Characterization of the metastable Cu-Fe nanoparticles prepared by the mechanical alloying route

Although Cu and Fe are immiscible under equilibrium conditions, they can form supersaturated solid solutions by mechanical alloying. In this paper, nano-structured of the metastable Cu-Fe phase containing 10, 15, 20 and 25% wt Fe were synthesized by intensive ball milling for 15h, in order to achieve a solid solution of Fe in Cu. The phase composition, dissolution of the Fe atoms into the Cu ma...

Kinetic process of mechanical alloying in Fe 50

MechanicaHy driven alloying and grain size changes in nanocrystalline Fe-Cu powders

Highly supersaturated nanocrystalline Fe,Culcc-X alloys (lO<n<95) have been prepared by mechanical alloying of elemental crystalline powders. The development of the microstructure is investigated by x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and transmission electron microscopy. The results are compared with data for ball-milled elemental Fe and Cu powders, samples prepared by inert ...
