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 ...

Diffusion coefficients of alloying elements in Mg are critical for the development of new Mg alloys for lightweight applications. Here we present the data set of the temperature-dependent dilute tracer diffusion coefficients for 47 substitutional alloying elements in hexagonal closed packed (hcp) Mg calculated from first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) by combin...

A description of the important physical metallurgy aspects of Ni3Al and NiAl encompassing structure, crystallographic defects, slip systems and phase stability has been presented in this article. The microstructures generated in the two alloys by conventional as well as novel processing techniques have been discussed. The effect of alloying additions on the microstructure has been enumerated. B...

Surface nanocrystallization using a surface mechanical attrition treatment effectively activates the surface of magnesium alloys due to the increase in grain boundary diffusion channels. As a result, the temperature of subsequent surface alloying treatment of pure Mg and AZ91 alloy can be reduced from 430 degrees C to 380 degrees C. Thus, it is possible to combine the surface alloying process w...

Abstract There are various methods to produce iron based nano crystalline magnetic alloys. Among these methods, mechanical alloying is one of the most important. In this research, nano crystalline Fe85Si10Ni5 soft magnetic alloy was synthesized by mechanical alloying. The effect of alloying time on phase constituents and magnetic properties of the produced powders was investigated, by X-ray di...

the molybdenum dicilicide is an intermetallic compound with two allotropies tetragonal ?-mosi2 and hexagonal ?-mosi2.the ?-mosi2 phase is established to 1900 ?c and ?-mosi2 phase from 1900 to 2050 ?c. this material has considerable properties that provide different applications in different industries such as air-space industry and gas turbines. the molybdenum synthesis can be down in various w...

Almost perfect embedding of SnO2 nanocrystallites in carbon nanopores was achieved by in situ synthesis using vaporized SnCl2 and silica opal-derived nanoporous carbons. The reversibility of SnO2-Sn conversion and Sn-Li alloying/de-alloying reactions was greatly enhanced by the confinement in regulated carbon nanospace.

As bioabsorbable materials, magnesium alloys are expected to be totally degraded in the body and their biocorrosion products not deleterious to the surrounding tissues. It's critical that the alloying elements are carefully selected in consideration of their cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility. In the present study, nine alloying elements Al, Ag, In, Mn, Si, Sn, Y, Zn and Zr were added into magn...

In a recent study, nanocrystalline Ti-based alloys were synthesized using mechanical alloying (MA) followed by annealing. The alloying elements Nb or Nb and Zr were added to titanium. The mechanical properties and the corrosion resistance of these materials were investigated and compared with microcrystalline Ti and the TiAl6V4 alloy. An enhancement of the properties due to nanoscale structures...
