Abstract
Nanocrystalline Fe50Co25Ni15X10 (X = Bamorphous, Bcrystalline, and Si) powdered alloys were prepared by mechanical alloying process. Morphological, microstructural, and structural characterizations of the powders milled several times were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The final crystallographic state strongly depends on the chemical composition and the grinding time; it can be single-phase or two-phase. The crystallite size reduction down the nanometer scale is accompanied by the introduction of high level of lattice strains. The dissolution of Co, Ni, B (amorphous and crystalline), and Si into the α-Fe lattice leads to the formation of highly disordered Fe-based solid solutions. Coercivity (Hc) and the saturation magnetization (Ms) of alloyed powders were measured at room temperature by a vibration sample magnetization. The magnetic measurements show a contrasting Ms and (Hc) in all alloy compositions. Conclusively, soft magnetic properties of nanocrystalline alloys are related to various factors such as metalloid addition, formed phases, and chemical compositions.
