Abstract
The high intensity ball milling of a mixture of silicon dioxide, aluminum and graphite powders was investigated to determine the formation of a composite of alumina and silicon carbide. Differential thermal analysis (DTA) was performed on milled powders. The products were analyzed by x-ray diffraction using monochromatic Cokα radiation using acount time of 1 s per 0.03 °step. The results show that for shorter milling time the reaction was two stage with elemental silicon appearing as an intermediate prior to carburization to silicon carbide.
