| description | This research investigates how different ball milling conditions influence the microstructure and mechanical properties of carbon nanotube/aluminum alloys. The study examines varying rotation speeds, specifically 200, 300, and 400 rpm. The results highlight the significant impact of milling conditions on grain size and mechanical properties. Notably, milling at 300 rpm/4 h and at 400 rpm/2 h led to higher tensile strength but lower uniform elongation compared to milling at 200 rpm/6 h. The alloy milled at 300 rpm/4 h displayed a refined microstructure, increased density, and the strongest fiber texture along the (111) direction. The presence of a moderate grain size facilitated ductility, resulting in the highest uniform elongation (∼9.1%) while maintaining high strength (∼515 MPa). This study provides valuable insights into the effects of ball milling on the microstructure and mechanical properties of metals and alloys, contributing to the optimization of milling conditions to achieve desired material characteristics. |
