Ball Milling Time

A lower-temperature and cost-efficient way is developed to produce Fe-TiC powders. Fe-TiC is produced by means of mechanical activation -reductive diffusion with ilmenite and graphite. The feasibility of this method and the kinetics of the carbothermic reduction are studied with both natural ilmenite and synthetic ilmenite, respectively. The result approved that Fe-TiC powder could be produced by this new technique; moreover, the particles were prominently diminished in size and activated after ball milling. No obvious reactions were detected when ball milling time was less than 8h by EPMA and XRD; however, the mixed powder of Fe and TiC was obtained after annealing for different time intervals. The kinetic study showed that the apparent activation energy of the reductive reaction decreased gradually with milling time due to mechanical activation, but this effect weakened after ball milling for 6h. As ascertained experimentally, the optimum ball milling time was between 4h and 6h.

Ball Milling Time

Mg2Ni powder was heated up to 880°C which is higher than the melting point of Mg2Ni alloys (760°C) for 30 minutes and immediately cooled into water (14°C). And then, mechanical ball milling was conducted for 1,4,8,10,12,24 hours respectively. As milling time increased discharge capacity was increased to maximum of 700mAh/g at 12hours then decreased with increasing milling time. The best high rate dischargeability (HRD) characteristic also obtain at the 12 hours ball milling time. Therefore, the ball milling time could be shorten to 12 hours by heat treatment and rapid cooling. Praseodymium (0,0.2,0.5,0.7,1.0%Pr) was added to Mg2Ni alloys. These alloys were ground for 12 hours to investigate the improvement of cycle life. The cycle life was remarkably improved with increasing the amount of Pr. The best amount of Pr was 0.7 wt%.

Ball Milling Time

The SO2 adsorption efficiency of activated carbons (ACs) is clearly dependent on its physicochemical structure. Related to this, the effect of physical and mechanical activation on the physicochemical structure of coal-based ACs has been investigated in this work. In the stage of CO2 activation, the rapid decrease of the defective structure and the growth of aromatic layers accompanied by the dehydrogenation of aromatic rings result in the ordered conversion of the microstructure and severe carbon losses on the surfaces of Char-PA, while the oxygen content of Char-PA, including C=O (39.6%), C–O (27.3%), O–C=O (18.4%) and chemisorbed O (or H2O) (14.7%), is increased to 4.03%. Char-PA presents a relatively low SBET value (414.78 m2/g) owing to the high value of Non-Vmic (58.33%). In the subsequent mechanical activation from 12 to 48 h under N2 and dry ice, the strong mechanical collision caused by ball-milling can destroy the closely arranged crystalline layers and the collapse of mesopores and macropores, resulting in the disordered conversion of the microstructure and the formation of a defective structure, and a sustained increase in the SBET value from 715.89 to 1259.74 m2/g can be found with the prolonging of the ball-milling time. There is a gradual increase in the oxygen content from 6.79 to 9.48% for Char-PA-CO2-12/48 obtained by ball-milling under CO2. Remarkably, the varieties of physicochemical parameters of Char-PA-CO2-12/48 are more obvious than those of Char-PA-N2-12/48 under the same ball-milling time, which is related to the stronger solid-gas reactions caused by the mechanical collision under dry ice. Finally, the results of the SO2 adsorption test of typical samples indicate that Char-PA-CO2-48 with a desirable physicochemical structure can maintain 100% efficiency within 30 min and that its SO2 adsorption capacity can reach 138.5 mg/g at the end of the experiment. After the 10th cycle of thermal regeneration, Char-PA-CO2-48 still has a strong adsorptive capacity (81.2 mg/g).

The paper illustrates Carbon nanotubes reinforced pure Al (CNT/Al) composites and fly ash reinforced pure Al (FA/Al) composites produced by ball-milling and sintering. Microstructures of the fabricated composite were examined and the mechanical properties of the composites were tested and analysed. It was indicated that the CNTs and fly ash were uniformly dispersed into the Al matrix as ball-milling time increased with increase in hardness.

In this paper, the BaZrO3(BZ) and BaZr0.97Y0.03O3-δ(BZY3) powders were prepared by using the industrial grade BaCO3, ZrO2and Y2O3powders combining the conventional solid state reaction. The BaZrO3(BZ) and BaZr0.97Y0.03O3-δ(BZY3) ceramics were fabricated at 1750°C. The effect of ball milling time and sintering aid (TiO2) on the sinterability of BaZr0.97Y0.03O3-δ(BZY3) ceramics were investigated, and the improved stability of BaZrO3refractory with Y2O3additive were studied according to the refractory-metal interaction. The results revealed that the particle size of BZY3 powders decreased first and then increased with the increasing of ball milling time from 6h to 12h, and the minimum particle size was only 2.252μm at 8h. When 2wt.%TiO2was added, the sintered pellet of BZY3 was the most densest and the relative density was above 95%. After melting the Ti2Ni alloy on the BZY and BZ ceramics, the thickness erosion layer of BaZrO3and BZY3refractories and Ti2Ni alloy is approximately 50μm and 20μm respectively, showing that BZY3 was more stable than BaZrO3refractory.

Mo2NiB2-Ni cermets have been extensively investigated due to their outstanding properties. However, studies have not systematically examined the effect of the powder milling process on the cermets. In this study, Mo, Ni, and B raw powders were subjected to mechanical ball milling from 1 h to 15 h. XRD patterns of the milled powders confirmed that a new phase was not observed at milling times of 1 h to 15 h. With the increase in the mechanical ball milling time from 1 h to 11 h, raw powders were crushed to small fragments, in addition to a more uniform distribution, and with the increase in the mechanical ball milling time to greater than 11 h, milled powders changed slightly. Mo2NiB2-Ni cermets were fabricated by reaction boronizing sintering using the milled powders at different ball milling times. The milling time significantly affected the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo2NiB2-Ni cermets. Moreover, the Mo2NiB2 cermet powder subjected to a milling time of 11 h exhibited the finest crystal size and the maximum volume fraction of the Mo2NiB2 hard phase. Furthermore, the cermets with a milling time of 11 h exhibited a maximum hardness and bending strength of 87.6 HRA and 1367.3 MPa, respectively.
