A high-energy ball milling and subsequent high-pressure torsion method was applied to synthesize nanocrystalline magnesium samples catalyzed by TiO2 or titanate nanotubes. The microstructure of the as-milled powders and the torqued bulk disks was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The recorded diffractograms have been evaluated by the convolutional multiple whole profile fitting algorithm, which provided microstructural parameters (average crystal size, crystallite size distribution, average dislocation density). The morphology of the nanotube-containing disks has been examined by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The effect of the different additives and preparation conditions on the hydrogen absorption behavior was investigated in a Sieverts’-type apparatus. It was found that the ball-milling route has a prominent effect on the dispersion and morphology of the titanate nanotubes, and the absorption capability of the Mg-based composite is highly dependent on these features.

High-Pressure Torsion (HPT) is widely used to refine the structure of metallic materials through the use of severe plastic deformation. This technique is used in this report to process different magnesium alloys using various processing conditions. The high hydrostatic pressure allows processing of these materials at room temperature without cracking. The structure was characterized and hardness distribution was determined at different areas of the processed samples. The results show significant structure refinement and increased hardness. The evolution of the structure and hardness depends on the alloying and HPT processing conditions.

ABSTRACTA reversible-phase transformation process to convert coarse-grained polycrystalline cubic-Y2O3 directly into the nanocrystalline state is being developed. The process involves a forward cubic-to-monoclinic phase transition under high pressure and a backward transformation from monoclinic-to-cubic under a lower pressure. The process has been used to reduce the grain size of fully dense cubic-Y2O3 from 300 μm to 0.1 μm. A surface modification effect, comprising a columnar-grained structure, has also been observed. Preliminary work indicates that the surface structure is modified, apparently formed by interaction between the graphite heater and sample.

Pure Ti powders were subjected to ball milling and subsequently high-pressure torsion (HPT) for consolidation. It is found that a fully dense (99.9%) disc with ultrafine grained structure (~50-300 nm) was produced. The strength and ductility were well comparable to those of ball-milled Ti-6%Al-4%V powders after hot roll sintering.

High pressure-induced spectral changes in a 20-nm cubic nanocrystalline yttria doped with europium and its corresponding bulk were studied in the range of 550–750 nm, corresponding to the 5D0 → 7FJ (J = 0–4) transitions. The results demonstrate that the bulk Y2O3 underwent phase transition from the cubic phase to the monoclinic phase as the pressure increased to 15 GPa, while the 20-nm nanocrystals did not. This can be concluded from the fact that the 5D0 → 7F0 line and the three 5D0 → 7F1 sublines originating from the cubic phase disappeared, while another group of 5D0 → 7F0 and 5D0 → 7F1 lines appeared. In addition, the relative intensity of the peak around 630 nm to that around 611 nm varied obviously as the pressure surpassed 15 GPa. The variations in the nanocrystals were more sluggish in comparison to those in the bulk, indicating that the nanocrystalline yttria had improved compressibility, which is attributed to an increased surface energy in nanocrystals. The local environment surrounding luminescent Eu3+ in the nanocrystals and the bulk both became more disordered with the increase of the pressure. The phase transition from the cubic to the monoclinic is irreversible.
