Alloying ZnO with TiNi powders through mechanical milling followed by annealing

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The TiNi alloying to ZnO mixed powder was mechanically milled for 30 and 60h, respectively. The product XRD analysis revealed a predominatly single broad peak after 30 and 60 h. Raman analysis revealed similar broad behaviour of a intensity peak indicative of the short-range order or lack of crystallinity due to MM. TEM images showed the lattice fringes with decreased number of diffraction rings due to partial formation of amorphous particles complimenting the XRD and Raman results. Thermal analysis showed an exothermic peak at 543°C, while no exothermic peak has emerged on the 60h milled ZnO-TiNi powder.
