The influence of mechanical alloying on contamination of powder mixtures and bulk materials
Kubíček, Antonín ; Hadraba, Hynek (referee) ; Moravčík, Igor (advisor)
This thesis deals with the influence of process parameters on the contamination level of powder materials produced by mechanical alloying (MA) technology. For this purpose austenitic stainless steel 316 L and equiatomic CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) were prepared by high-energy ball milling. Both materials were milled in argon and nitrogen atmospheres from 5 to 30 hours. Spark plasma sintering method (SPS) was then used for consolidation of chosen powder samples. Chemical analysis of contamination within MA was carried out using combustion analysers for determination of carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen contents after different lengths of milling. Also differences in chemical composition of powder and corresponding bulk samples were measured. The microstructure analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of both powder and bulk materials was executed with focus on oxide and carbide presence and dispersion. Increasing content of carbon with increasing milling time was observed across all measured samples. This contamination is attributed to using milling vial made of tool steel AISI D2 (containing 1,55 wt. % of carbon). Increase of carbon content within consolidation using SPS was also observed. Milling of specimens using N2 as milling atmosphere caused higher contamination level in both AISI 316 L and HEA compared to milling in argon.
