Minimizing the Synthesis Time of Nanostructured Powders in Planetary Mills using Biogeography-based Optimization (BBO) Algorithm
Abstract: A key objective in processing of nanostructured powders via high-energy ball milling is to minimize the synthesis time. This paper presents the application of biogeography-based algorithm for optimization of milling parameters in order to minimize the synthesis time of nanostructured powders in planetary mills. At first a direct relationship between the inverse of the milling time and the power of the planetary mill was established, which allows the validation of …

Nanocrystalline Silver: Synthesis by High-Energy Ball Milling, X-ray Debye Temperature Analysis, and Diverse Applications
Abstract: This research paper presents a comprehensive investigation into transforming micro-sized silver (Ag) powder into nanostructured Ag powder by applying high-energy ball milling. The ball milling process was executed over a total duration of 20 hours, with periodic sampling every 4 hours to monitor the evolving characteristics of the material. The particle size, lattice strain, Debye-Waller factor, and root mean square amplitudes of vibration were calculated by using X-ray powder diffraction …

Synthesis and Characterization of Ta Doped Nanostructured PZT
Abstract: Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) powder of composition Pb(Zr0.65Ti0.35)O3 was modified by incorporation of Tantalum (Ta5+) in a wide composition range (5–25 at%) by chemical co-precipitation method using PbO, Zr2O3, TiO2 and Ta2O5. X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples showed the formation of a single phase and confirmed the formation of a rhombohedral phase of all the samples after sintering. SEM analysis showed well-developed, uniformly packed grains. Both the linear particle …

Analytical Study on Humidity Sensing of Nanostructured Tin Oxide
Abstract: Nanocrystalline tin oxide powder was prepared by a mechanochemical method. The synthesised powder was characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). XRD shows the crystalline nature of the synthesised material. The crystallite size was estimated using Debye–Scherrer equation and its minimum value was 9 nm. Surface morphologies of the sensing pellets were investigated using SEM. Pellets as well as thick films were used as sensing elements for …

Study of Size Controllable Synthesis of Indium Tin Oxide Nanoparticles and Their Different Characterizations
Abstract: Nanocrystalline indium oxide powders were prepared by combustion synthesis. The changes of nanostructure caused by material processing were studied using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and Brummer Emette teller analysis (BET). The stoichiometric composition of the starting indium tin oxide powder (cubic in traces) induced phase transitions to high temperature. We found that the phase transition to ITO was initiated at the …

Experimental and Process Optimization Study on Thermal Stress Reduction in TiC–Steel Brazed Joints Using Polymer-Derived Composite Interlayers
Abstract: In this, an experimental investigation aimed at reducing crack formation due to thermal stress in TiC-steel brazed joints through optimization of key process parameters is presented. The primary objective was to develop an integrated and reliable brazing strategy by examining the effects of filler material selection, brazing gap, cooling conditions and type of flux. In this study, polymer-derived composite interlayers were developed through controlled synthesis and nanocomposite engineering to mitigate …
