Abstract

The aim of this work is the characterization of some graphite-metal couples prepared by mechanical milling (MM). The morphological and microstructural changes during MM of graphite processed with metallic powders of Cu, Ni and Ag (10 and 15 at. %) are studied. Milling is performed in a high-energy ball mill under an inert atmosphere during 1, 4 and 8 hours. The process is also repeated with a pure graphite sample in order to compare the role of metal type and concentration on the morphological characteristics of milled samples. The results show that increasing the concentration of metal particles accelerates the milling process as a result of faster work hardening and particle fracture. The results of X-ray diffraction analysis show that some crystallographic characteristics of the milled couples change as a function of milling time and metal addition. Also, SEM-EDS studies show an important effect of milling time on metal particle distribution in the prepared graphite couples.
