Mechanochemical reactions in the system FeTiO3–Si
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 January 2011
Abstract
Mechanochemical reactions in the system FeTiO3 –Si have been investigated as functions of the powder composition and milling conditions, using x-ray diffraction and thermal analyses. Reduction reactions of FeTiO3 by Si were observed during room-temperature milling with the formation of α–Fe, amorphous SiOx, nanocrystalline TiO2, or intermetallic compounds, depending on the Si content. The mechanochemical reaction process consists of a mechanical activation stage and a reaction stage. Higher milling intensity leads to a shorter activation step and a higher reaction rate.
