Characterization of mechanical nanocrystallization process of amorphous Fe–Mo–Si–B alloy by transmission Mössbauer spectroscopy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 January 2011
Abstract
The nanocrystallization process of the amorphous Fe–Mo–Si–B alloy under ball milling is characterized by means of transmission Mössbauer emission spectroscopy (TMES) in the present paper. It was found that a single α–Fe phase with the bcc structure is formed under ball-milling the amorphous Fe–Mo–Si–B alloy. A significant increase in the relative area of the subspectra of 8Fenn and 7Fenn and a remarkable decrease in isomer shift and half linewidth of the subspectra of various Fe configurations, especially in the case of 6Fenn, were observed during the ball-milling process. The diffusion of metalloid atoms from the bcc α–Fe phase to the remaining amorphous phase and α–Fe/α–Fe grain boundaries is suggested to occur during the mechanical crystallization of the current amorphous alloy based on the above TMES investigations.
