Study on the self sustained reactions in an Al–TiO2 composite powder produced by high-energy mechanical milling

In situ synthesis of nanocrystalline Al6063 matrix nanocomposite powder via reactive mechanical alloying

“…This method can be combined with a solid-state reaction [6]. Processing of aluminum matrix nanocomposites by mechanically driven reduction of metal oxides with aluminum has been frequently studied [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Fine dispersions can also be produced by a reaction between the powder particles and milling atmosphere during the course of milling.…”

Processing of Al matrix composites reinforced with Al–Ni compounds and Al2O3 by reactive milling and reactive sintering

“…The composite microstructure becomes finer with increasing milling times [5], which can lower the temperature at which the composite-forming reaction initiates [10,16,22]. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the longer time required to initiate the reaction in the powder milled for shorter times facilitated the powder's densification, resulting in lower porosity.…”

Combustion synthesis and development of Ti–O–C aluminium composites

“…Finally, beside unchanged Ti 2 O 3 the compound Ti 3 O 2 (C) more rich in Ti was formed. ever, in [17][18][19] formation of ␣2-Ti 3 Al was observed first and next of ␥-TiAl, that was explained by low solubility of Ti in Al. It could be still found that creation of the final compound is decided by substrate concentration.…”
