Influence of the atmosphere control during the grinding of titanium powder on its reactivity towards the conversion into titanium nitride
A grinding vial has been developed to be used with a high grinding energy swinging mill under the pressure of selected gases. This tool has been used for the study of titanium with nitrogen gas. Nanometric titanium nitride with a crystallite size around 10 nm has been obtained. A mechanism for the mechanochemical conversion of titanium into titanium nitride has been proposed.
