Reactions in Ternary System Al-B2O3-C during Mechanical Alloying

Article Preview

Abstract:

One possible route for producing the fine and homogenous distribution of hard particles in composite microstructure is the mechanochemical processing in which high-energy ball milling promotes the reaction in a mixture of reactive powders. This investigation aims to produce Al – B4C nanocomposite by reaction between aluminum, boron (III) oxide and graphite powder via a mechanochemical process. The effect of milling time and the ratio the balls to powder on this process were investigated. The face transformation ans structural evaluation were investigated means of X – Ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
