The purpose of this study was production and structural characterization of Fe-B crystalline /amorphous nanocomposite powders. In the theoretical part of the study, detailed nanoscale structures of Fe80B20 and Fe85B15 metallic glasses were investigated using Molecular Dynamics (MD) method as well as several structural analysis tools. In the experimental part of the study, Fe80B20 and Fe85B15 crystalline /amorphous nanocomposite powders have been synthesized by using surfactant-assisted high-energy ball milling. Then these powders have been examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). Comparisons have been made for the differences between evolved microstructures via equilibrium solidification, non-equilibrium solidification and solid-state phase transformations during milling operations.Structural analysis revealed that initially observed Fe2B and Fe3B intermetallic phases tend to disappear even at 1-hour milling time and eventually lead to the stabilization of α-Fe nanoparticles and possible formation of amorphous phase by increasing milling time. This resultant structure governs the magnetic behavior of the Fe80B20 and Fe85B15 nanoalloys.

Production and characterization of boron containing flame retardant polyamide-6 and polypropylene composites and fibers
Doğan, Mehmet; Bayramlı, Erdal; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2011)
The main objective of this study was to produce flame retardant polyamide-6 (PA-6) and polypropylene (PP) composites and fibers containing boron compounds. The synergistic effect on flame retardancy of boron compounds (boron silicon containing oligomer (BSi), zinc borate (ZnB), boron phosphate (BPO4), metal oxide doped BPO4 and lanthanum borate (LaB)) with conventional flame retardants were investigated. The synergistic effect of nano-clay with commercial flame retardants was also investigated in order to r...

KALELİ, Murat; ÇOLAKOĞLU, TAHİR; Parlak, Mehmet (Elsevier BV, 2013-12-01)
In this study highly stoichiometric and monophase AgInSe2 thin films were prepared by selenization of Ag-InSe precursors and the effect of the annealing temperature on the structural, electrical and optical properties have been investigated. The Se incorporation during selenization process as a function of temperature and the compositions of the samples were determined by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). As prepared and selenized films were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning elect...

Davoudnezhad, Ramona; Ögel, Bilgehan; Durlu, Nuri; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2016)
In this study, the effect of different heat treatment processes on microstructural and mechanical properties of Distaloy-DH and Astaloy Mo (Fe-2Cu-1.5Mo) powders are investigated. Powder samples are sintered at 1120°C for 45 minutes in a sintering furnace under reducing atmosphere of: 10% H2 + 90% N2. After sintering, secondary heat treatments are performed on samples. Microstructural characterization of samples is done with optical and electron microscopy. Selective etching is utilized for determining the ...
