Anisotropic bonded magnets are fabricated by surfactant-assisted ball milling in a magnetic field and magnetic field alignment of the milled chip-like nanoparticles of the Sm–Co and Nd–Fe–B materials. It is found that the application of magnetic fields during the ball milling strengthens the anisotropy of the chips and therefore improves the alignment. For SmCo5 phase-based chips, for instance,...

Planetary ball milling assisted piezocatalysis for water cleaning application.

magnesium is potentially useful for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications. magnesium and its alloys are light, biodegradable, biocompatible metals that have promising applications as biomaterials. however, the corrosion rate of this metal is so high that its degradation occurs before the end of the healing process. one of the ways to improve the corrosion rate is to compose it with ceramic...

Cadmium oxide has found its applications in various areas of research such as solar cells, phototransistors, photodiodes, transparent electrodes and gas sensors. In the present work CdO nano particles were successfully synthesized from cadmium acetate through thermal decomposition at high temperatures by adopting the solid state reaction. The prepared nano particles are subjected to ball millin...

In this paper, 2wt.% Fe doped TiO2 nanopowder was prepared by a combination of sol-gel and mechanical alloying methods. The mechanical alloying of Fe powder with Ti(OH)4 gel produced from the sol-gel method was used to produce Fe doped TiO2 nanopowder. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and diffuse reflectan...

In this paper, the production of Al2O3-Mo nano-composites via mechanical milling was investigated. Molybdenum and alumina powders with certain ratios were grounded in a planetary ball mill at different times. XRD technique was used to determine the crystallite size of the milled powders. The microstructure of milled powders was studied using optical and electron microscopes. The crystallite siz...

objective(s): hardystonite (ht) is zn-modified silicate bioceramics with promising results for bone tissue regeneration. however, ht possesses no obvious apatite formation. thus, in this study we incorporated sr and ti into ht to prepare sr-ti-hardystonite (sr-ti-ht) nanocomposite and evaluated its in vitro bioactivity with the purpose of developing a more bioactive bone substitute material. ma...
