Mechanochemically assisted preparation of NbB2 powder

Jan 01, 2006 A powder mixture of niobium and amorphous boron in 1:2 atomic ratio was milled using a planetary ball mill (Fritsch, Pulverisette 6) for 5–50 h at 600 rpm. For the milling, balls with diameters of 5, 9 or 16 mm were used and the effect of the ball size on the preparation of the NbB 2 was examined. We used a stainless steel vial and milling media

To develop advanced structural materials at very high temperatures, ball milling followed by reactive hot pressing was employed to fabricate binary Nb/Nb-silicide in-situ composites with 3.5 to 16 mol% silicon content. Changes in morphology during milling of niobium and silicon elemental powders were studied, and microstructures and mechanical properties of reactively hot pressed composites
