Mechanically induced self-propagating reaction of vanadium carbonitride
(Elsevier, 2015)
Vanadium carbonitrides (VCxN1−x) were prepared via mechanosynthesis from mixtures of elemental vanadium and carbon with different V/C atomic ratios under a nitrogen atmosphere using a high-energy ball mill. We obtained the ...

Characterisation of ternary TixV1-xNy nitride prepared by mechanosynthesis
(Elsevier, 2015)
In the present manuscript the authors have systematically investigated the composition and microstructure of a series of ternary nitrides (Ti xV1-xNy) (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) prepared by mechanosynthesis, using XRD, SEM, EELS, XAS ...

Mechanochemical synthesis of ZrB2-SiC-ZrC nanocomposite powder by metallothermic reduction of zircon
(Elsevier, 2013)
Aluminium and magnesium were used in the M/ZrSiO4/B 2O3/C (M = Al, Mg) system to induce a mechanically induced self-sustaining reaction (MSR). Aluminium was not able to reduce the system to the desired products, and the ...

Mechanosynthesis of nanocrystalline ZrB2-based powders by mechanically induced self-sustaining reaction method
(Elsevier, 2013)
Preparation of nanocrystalline ZrB2-based powder by aluminothermic and magnesiothermic reductions in M/ZrO2/B 2O3 (M = Al or Mg) systems was investigated. In this research, high energy ball milling was employed to persuade ...

An investigation on the formation mechanism of nano ZrB2 powder by a magnesiothermic reaction
(Elsevier, 2014)
Nanocrystalline zirconium diboride (ZrB2) powder was produced by mechanochemistry from the magnesiothermic reduction in the Mg/ZrO 2/B2O3 system. The use of high-energy milling conditions was essential to induce a mechanically ...

Absence of the core–rim microstructure in TixTa1 − xCyN1 − y-based cermets developed from a pre-sintered carbonitride master alloy
(Elsevier, 2012)
(Ti,Ta)(C,N) solid solution-based cermets with cobalt as the binder phase were synthesised by a two-step milling process. The titanium–tantalum carbonitride solid solution (the ceramic phase) was obtained via a mechanically ...
Article
Effect of sintering time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of (Ti,Ta)(C,N)-based cermets
(Elsevier, 2013)
Complete solid-solution cermets based on titanium-tantalum carbonitride using a starting nominal composition with 80 wt.% of (Ti0.8Ta 0.2)(C0.5N0.5) and 20 wt.% of Co were performed by pressure-less sintering at 1550 C for ...

Formation mechanism of ZrB2-Al2O3 nanocomposite powder by mechanically induced self-sustaining reaction
(Springer Verlag, 2013)
ZrB2-Al2O3 nanocomposite powder was produced by aluminothermic reduction in Al/ZrO2/B2O 3 system. In this research, high energy ball milling was used to produce the necessary conditions to induce a mechanically induced ...

Preparation of phase pure, dense fine grained ceramics by conventional and spark plasma sintering of La-substituted BiFeO3 nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2015)
High density ceramics of the system Bi1−xLaxFeO3, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15, have been prepared starting from nanoparticles obtained by mechanosynthesis. The ceramics have been sintered conventionally at 850 °C and by spark plasma ...

The role of boron oxide and carbon amounts in the mechanosynthesis of ZrB2-SiC-ZrC nanocomposite via a self-sustaining reaction in the zircon/magnesium/boron oxide/graphite system
(Elsevier, 2014)
Herein, ZrSiO4/B2O3/Mg/C system was used to synthesize a ZrB2-based composite by means of a high energy ball milling process. A mechanically induced selfsustaining reaction was achieved in this system. A nanocomposite ...
