ABSTRACT:
A mechanical alloying process wherein compacting of particulate feedstock is physically separate from subsequent comminuting improves control and consistency in mechanical alloying. The preferred compaction is by squeezing between rollers or other compacting means to produce a coherent mass such as a strip. The coherent mass (preferably rolled strip) is comminuted separately from the rolling or compression. This allows for a reduced temperature in comminuting or an atmosphere different from compacting or compressing. Compacting and comminuting are repeated to produce the desired extent of alloying and homogenization.
