Abstract:

In this work, the microstructural features of the particles based on 66% Co-28% Cr-6% Mo alloy, were investigated by X-ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Powders obtained by high-energy ball milling in an inert atmosphere, and held in SPEX mill with times between 15min and 120min, about ball/powder ratio of 6:1, were characterized by X-ray diffraction indicating in all conditions, Co phase as the crystalline phase of the system. The powders have a morphology that indicate a continuous reduction in average particle size as a function of increasing time, however, the shape of the particles initially flat for times up to 30 minutes, becomes spherodized after 30 minutes of grinding.
