摘要
In this present work, the synthesis of nanocrystalline alpha-Al2O3 using pure aluminum (AI) and Fe2O3 (hematite) as the precursors by mechanical alloying technique has been studied. The formation of alpha-Al2O3 nanocrystallites occurs during the solid-state reaction and through the reduction treatment. Also in this paper, effects of milling time on particle size and the lattice strain nanocrystalline alpha-Al2O3 have been investigated. Obtained powders were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The obtained results indicated that a reduction reaction was completed after 2 h milling in a planetary mill. The crystallite size of obtained alpha-alumina (alpha-Al2O3) was in general about 12 nm. Finally, the results showed appropriate homogeneity and dispersion of related nanocrystalline. (c) 2008 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
