Abstract
The ball-milling of pure Fe and Zn elemental powders corresponding to the Gamma-(Fe3Zn10), Gamma(1)-(Fe5Zn21), delta-(FeZn7), and zeta(FeZn1 3) compositions yields metastable crystalline phases. This is demonstr ated by the peaks observed in the DSC measurements of the different ph ases. These crystalline phases evolve differently with distinct or cha racteristic stages with heat treatments. Cold-welding and powder agglo meration are extensive, while the milled materials are completely homo geneous.
