In P/M, ball milling (BM) is well known as a powerful method to synthesize and refine MMCs with extremely fine and homogenous distribution of reinforcement in a metal matrix [6, 7]. However, BM imposes some disadvantages such as contamination from the grinding media and the process control agents (PCAs) during milling .

Mechanical alloying of Al-Mg powder mixtures with different PCAs was carried out using a planetary ball mill. X-ray diffraction spectra showed that a small amount of PCA might lead to fast interdiffusion and reaction between Al and Mg although the crystalline sizes were in general
WhatsAppGet PriceGet A QuoteIn Cu-rich systems, the milling process is commonly done by a process control agent (PCA) or cryogenic media (Ref 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8). A PCA is a surface-active additive which is adsorbed on the surface of particles and suppresses excessive cold welding and promotes the fracturing as a result of decreased surface tension.
