In this paper, the influence of toluene as the process control agent (PCA) and pre-milling on the extension of solid solubility of 7 wt.% Cr in Cu by mechanical alloying in a high energy ball mill was investigated. The structural evolution and microstructure were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques, respectively. The solid solution formation at different conditions was analyzed by copper lattice parameter change during the milling process. It was found that both the presence of PCA and pre-milling of Cr powder lead to faster dissolution of Cr . The mean crystallite size was also calculated and showed to be about 10 nm after 80 hours of milling.

Mg2Ni was synthesized by a solid state reaction from the constituent elemental powder mixtures via mechanical alloying. The mixture was ball milled for 10 h at room temperature in an argon atmosphere. The high energy ball mill used here was fabricated at ININ. A hardened steel vial and three steel balls of 12.7 mm in diameter were used for milling. The ball to powder weight ratio was 10:1. A small amount of powder was removed at regular intervals to monitor the structural changes. All the steps were performed in a little lucite glove box under argon gas, this glove box was also constructed in our Institute. The structural evolution during milling was characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The hydrogen reaction was carried out in a micro-reactor under controlledconditions of pressure and temperature. The hydrogen storage properties of mechanically milled powders were evaluated by using a TGA system. Although homogeneous refining and alloying take place efficiently by repeated forging, the process time can be reduced to one fiftieth of the time necessary for conventional mechanical milling and attrition.

In the present study nanostructured Cu ( Mo ) compound with 15 weight percent Mo was produced by mechanical alloying using a planetary ball mill. The milling operation was carried out in hardened chromium steel vial and balls under argon atmosphere with a constant ball to powder ratio of 10:1. The structural evolution and characterization of powder particles after different milling times were studied by X-Ray Diffraction, SEM observation and Microhardness measurements. The results showed the displacement of broadened Cu peaks to lower angles, because of dissolving Mo in Cu . The final product was a nanocomposite contains nanocrystalline Cu ( Mo ) supersaturated solid solution matrix and dispersion of nanometric Mo reinforcements. The microhardness of formed nanocomposite increased to 350HV because of grain refinement, formation of solid solution and dispersion hardening.
