abstract

  • The amorphous phase formation in the (Ni51Ti49) 1-xTax system in the range of 0-20 % Ta through mechanical alloying was investigated. Microstructural analysis to assess the overall physical particle size variation and interlayer thickness of the alloyed particles with milling time was performed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The process of amorphization was studied by subjecting the milled powders to X-ray diffraction at regular milling times. It was observed that the crystallite sizes of both Ni and Ti were almost similar at any given percentage of Ta.
