A high-energy ball milling technique was employed to prepare ultrafine cemented carbide nanocomposite powders with compositions (wt.%) of 93WC/7-xCo/xZrO2-2mol% Y2O3 powders (x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 wt%). The nanocomposite powders obtained after [...]

Nanomechanical and Morphological Characterizations of Spark Plasma Sintered WC- 5Co-1Cr-3MgO-0.7VC-0.3Cr3C2 Nanocomposite Powders Prepared by Solid-State Mechanical Mixing Technique

Sherif El-Eskandarany M., Al-Hazza A., Alduweesh A., Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, US

WC-Co-based composites possess unique and useful properties that make them desirable materials for wide range of industrial applications such as tips for cutting and drilling tools, wear resistant parts in wire drawing, extrusion and pressing [...]

Synthesizing and Consolidation of Mechanically-Induced Solid-State Reacted Ti50C50 Nanopowders and Subsequent Consolidations

Sherif El-Eskandarany M., Al-Hazza A., Shaban E., Alduweesh A., Al-Rowayeh A., Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, KW

In contrast to the industrial approach for preparing such important materials, we have succeeded to synthesize a single phase of Ti50C50 nanopowders, using high-energy ball milling technique. The ball milling procedure took place at ambient [...]
