High energy ball milling and subsequent high-pressure torsion method was carried out on nanocrystalline Mg powders catalyzed by 5 wt.% Nb2O5 and 5 wt.% carbon nanotubes. In the present research two distinct milling routes were performed in order to reveal the influence of the processing conditions on the hydrogenation behavior of the investigated alloys. The hydrogen sorption behavior of the milled powders and the bulk disks was examined in a Sieverts’-type apparatus. Structural characterization of the catalyzed Mg powders and disks has been carried out by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.

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.

ABSTRACTWe investigated through X- ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy the crystal refinement of the intermetallic compound AIRu by high- energy ball milling. The deformation process causes a decrease of crystal size to 5–7 rum and an increase of atomic level strain. This deformation is localized in shear bands with a thickness of 0.5 to 1 micron. Within these bands the crystal lattice breaks into small grains with a typical size of 8–14 rum. Further deformation leads to a final nanocrystalline structure with randomly oriented crystallite grains separated by high- angle grain boundaries.

Amorphous Si

Amorphous Si-B-C-N ceramics obtained by high energy ball milling and hot pressing using hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), graphite (C) and amorphous Si as starting materials have been studied. The mechanical milling with high energy resulted in the generation of large amounts of amorphous composites only milled for 5 h. Si-B-C-N powders were consolidation by hot pressing at 1850 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) show that small amount of BN and SiC crystal lies in the amorphous matrix. The flexural strength reached the maximal value of 137.2 MPa at a mole ratio of BN/(Si+C) being 0.6.

The purpose of this study was to improve the dielectric, magnetic, and thermal properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites using recycled Fe2O3 (rFe2O3) nanofiller. Hematite (Fe2O3) was recycled from mill scale waste and the particle size was reduced to 11.3 nm after 6 h of high-energy ball milling. Different compositions (5–25 wt %) of rFe2O3 nanoparticles were incorporated as a filler in the PTFE matrix through a hydraulic pressing and sintering method in order to fabricate rFe2O3–PTFE nanocomposites. The microstructure properties of rFe2O3 nanoparticles and the nanocomposites were characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The thermal expansion coefficients (CTEs) of the PTFE matrix and nanocomposites were determined using a dilatometer apparatus. The complex permittivity and permeability were measured using rectangular waveguide connected to vector network analyzer (VNA) in the frequency range 8.2–12.4 GHz. The CTE of PTFE matrix decreased from 65.28×10−6/°C to 39.84×10−6/°C when the filler loading increased to 25 wt %. The real (ε′) and imaginary (ε″) parts of permittivity increased with the rFe2O3 loading and reached maximum values of 3.1 and 0.23 at 8 GHz when the filler loading was increased from 5 to 25 wt %. A maximum complex permeability of 1.1−j0.07 was also achieved by 25 wt % nanocomposite at 10 GHz.

The present work reports on the microstructure and oxidation resistance of Ni-25Nb, Ni-20Nb-5Ta and Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloys produced by high-energy ball milling and subsequent sintering. The sintered samples were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectrometry, and static oxidation tests. Homogeneous microstructures of the binary and ternary alloys indicated the major presence of the β-Ni3Nb compound as matrix, which dissolved large amounts of tantalum. Consequently, the β-Ni3Nb peaks moved toward the direction of smaller diffraction angles. Iron contamination lower than 6.7 at.-% was detected by EDS analysis, which were picked-up during the previous ball milling process. After the static oxidation tests (1100°C for 4 h) the sintered Ni-25Nb, Ni-20Nb-5Ta and Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloys presented mass gains of 31.5%, 30.5% and 28.8%, respectively. Despite the higher densification of the Ni-15Nb-10Ta alloy, the results suggested that the tantalum addition contributed to improve the oxidation resistance of the β-Ni3Nb compound.

This paper is a collection of selected contributions of the 1st International Workshop on Mechanochemistry of Metal Hydrides that was held in Oslo in May 2018. In this paper, the recent developments in the use of mechanochemistry to synthesize and modify metal hydrides are reviewed. A special emphasis is made on new techniques beside the traditional way of ball milling. High energy milling, ball milling under hydrogen reactive gas, cryomilling and severe plastic deformation techniques such as High-Pressure Torsion (HPT), Surface Mechanical Attrition Treatment (SMAT) and cold rolling are discussed. The new characterization method of in-situ X-ray diffraction during milling is described.

In this study, ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites were prepared by high-energy ball milling technique and characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), UV–visible spectroscopy and dielectric spectroscopy. The amount of Fe2O3 in the ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites was varied at the rates of 1[Formula: see text]wt.%, 3[Formula: see text]wt.% and 5[Formula: see text]wt.% in order to investigate its influence on the structural, optical and dielectric properties of the nanocomposites. XRD patterns of nanocomposites revealed no shift in peak positions and hence confirmed the formation of composites after ball milling. Further, it was observed from FESEM analysis that Fe2O3 particles were distributed randomly on the ZnO matrix of the nanocomposites. ZnO–Fe2O3 nanocomposites reveal extended optical absorption in the range of 400–600[Formula: see text]nm from UV studies. The dielectric constant and loss of the nanocomposites decrease exponentially with increase in frequency. The composition and frequency dependences of the dielectric constant, dielectric loss and AC conductivity are explained based on the Maxwell–Wagner effect and Koop’s theory.

An intermetallic compound c–NiZr and a mixture of elemental powders of nickel and zirconium [Ni50Zr50 (at. %)] have been mechanically ground (MG) and mechanically alloyed (MA), respectively, using a high-energy ball mill in various atmospheres. The products were characterized by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and chemical analysis as a function of milling time. An amorphous a–NiZr alloy was prepared by both MG and MA in an argon atmosphere. By MG of NiZr, an amorphous nitride a–NiZrN0.15 was synthesized in a nitrogen atmosphere, while a crystalline hydride c–NiZrH3 was formed in a hydrogen atmosphere. On the other hand, ZrN and ZrH2 were formed by MA in a nitrogen and a hydrogen atmosphere, respectively. The amorphization reaction was observed between ZrH2 and Ni by further MA in a hydrogen atmosphere, and a mixture of a–NiZrxHy (x < 1) and ZrH2 was obtained. However, no amorphization was observed by MA between ZrN and Ni in a nitrogen atmosphere. The effects of the milling atmosphere on the phase formations during MG and MA are discussed based on the gas absorption rate.
