Microstructure evolution in nanocrystalline Cu-Nb alloy during mechanical alloying
The microstructural evolution of nanocrystalline Cu-10%Nb(mass fraction) alloy during mechanical alloying (MA) was investigated by using X-ray diffraction,optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation.Upon milling of Cu-Nb powders with coarse grains,the grain size is found to decrease gradually with lengthening milling time,and reach the minimum value (about 9 nm) after 100 h milling.The microstrain and the microhardness of the powders increase during the grain refinement.And Cu lattice parameter increases steadily over 100 h milling.The mechanisms of solid solution extension during milling were discussed.The results show that up to 10%Nb can be brought into solid solution by MA.The extension of solid solution is found to relate closely with the formation of nanocrystalline.
