Abstract

Nano-powders of 5Ni0.6Fe0.4 and Al2O3 were synthesized from 3NiO and 2FeAl powders by high energy ball milling. Nanocrystalline 5Ni0.6Fe0.4-Al2O3 composite was consolidated by pulsed current activated sintering method within 2 min from mechanically alloyed powders of Al2O3 and 5Ni0.6Fe0.4. The average hardness and fracture toughness values obtained were 990 kg/mm2 and 7.5 MPa·m1/2, respectively.
