Vv. Savin et Va. Chaika, Formation of amorphous powders of alloys of the Cu-Ti system with mechanical activation of powder mixtures, POWD MET ME, 37(7-8), 1998, pp. 448-451
The active mechanical treatment (AMT) of powder mixtures of the Cu-Ti syste
m in a high-power mill and in a medium-power vibrating ball mill in argon a
llows one to synthesise the phases and to obtain the powders in an amorphou
s (by X-ray measurements) state. AMT of mixture proceeds via the following
stages: grinding of precursor powders, formation of a layered structure, in
terdiffusion (mass transfer), and attainment of an amorphous state.
